| I'm fed up with this now. Last night, some of the abuse directed at him from the Bulls "fans" was disgraceful. Booing him when he came on. Constant verbal comments when he was playing. It was out of order. I know that he has become the scapegoat for the bad season but ffs he is still one of our players. He is still a Bull and he deserves the fans getting behind him, not giving him abuse.
I watched him really carefully last night. What did he really do wrong? He was enthusiastic. He made a shed load of tackles. I don't recall him missing many. He ran the ball in pretty hard. At one point, he broke the tackle and was clear. The tackler came in so he offloaded. There was noone with him so the ball went to ground. Is that his fault that we have no support players? He got grief for that. A bit later Heath (I think) did almost exactly the same and again no support so the pass went down. Noone crucified him for that.
Worrincy gave away one penalty that I recall. And that was a Child's special. Worrincy had rolled away from the tackle and could not get up as the Wigan player had hold of his arm. Clear as day. Yet Childs gave it. And Worrincy got slated.
I say lay off him. He is a Bulls player. If he is with us next year, then it must mean Potter sees something in him. And he knows more about the game then any of us. So he deserves the support of the fans.
Right, rant over.

| He's a Bulls player so I would never boo the guy onto or off the pitch. I thought last night was one of his better games of the year. I think it was his 1st drive of the match where he ran full pelt at the Wigan defence. If he did that each and every week he'd win a lot more fans on the terraces.
He has however put in some absolute shockers this year. I have nothing against the guy but he just isn't good enough for a side with ambitions to be among the top six clubs in SL. I personally do not think he has done enough throughout the year to earn a new deal at the club. I'm afraid we do have a few numpties though who will never seen the good in some players.

I have to agree nobody should boo a player, but i have to say he`s be poor all season, his defence is dismal and his attacking skills are dire too, he won`t be in a bulls shirt next season he`s wakey bound as i hear.

| I actually didn't think he was that bad last night, save the awful offload he did to a Wigan player (when no Bulls player was anywhere near) and one missed tackle near the end. Aside from those, he made some good tackles, a couple of which looked like the player was about to get through the line.
I'll criticise him plenty on here (because imo he is just not good enough) when he warrants it, and when he does something crap on the pitch, I'll do the same. But I won't boo him. Ever. And i'll still support him while he's playing. I'll also happily acknowledge when he does do good things.
Unfortunately there does seem to be quite a few that don't notice if he does anything right and just criticise him for the whole 80 minutes, regardless of how he plays. If he does do something good, they either say nothing or chalk it up to luck or another player's work.
As much as I think he's a terrible player and I don't want him at the club, it won't ever make me stand/sit and boo him at a game. And it won't stop me supporting him while he's out there in our shirt, even if deep down I'm wishing he wasn't.

| Well said. Whilst he is a bulls player he should be supported
We are not asking you to buy a shirt with his name on it just show him some respect & support
Just wonder if the wigan player called for the offload last night?

That was the one Child pinged the Pies for offside, I saw Worrincy look round before he offloaded so maybe he was being smart, but taking a big chance the ref would spot an obvious offside!
As for the booing it's just patethetic, the team on rare occaisions deserve the full wrath of the fans but individuals never, otherwise you could argue Vinny Finnegan should cop it for letting in easy try's last night! inexperience not withstanding, but that also begs the question why LSH didn't let a more experienced player like Beaver play along side him which he did in the 2nd half and that certainly helped the lad, although a winger in full flight should not be caught by the likes of Pat Richards, so hopefully he will realise guenuine speed is part of a wingers comfort zone!

| Comment of the season was at home Vs Hull FC
Tackle missed near the line, Hull score, Bloke behind me shouts "WORRINCY!" to which I turn round and say "Worrincy went off about five minutes ago and isn't on the pitch".

| Didn't have a bad game last night, and his offload that went to Wigan - okay he should have kept onto the ball, but there really should be backup to take the offload, you cant criticiz his effort for getting his arm free and the ball away.

| I think Worrincy is seen by many as an embodiment of McNamara's time in charge and his general signing policy.
As McNamara is no longer at the club people focus on what is perceived as one of the worst of McNamara's signings.

| There will always be miserable b.stards that delight in targetting one player for abuse. Platt suffered this, Glen Tomlinson and Scott Naylor before him.
Utterly pathetic and unlikely to be eradicated. I like to wind them up by raucously supporting whoever the target is though.

Exactly my point. Where was the support? If support was there, that was a try. Yet Worrincy gets slated for trying to play.

I had him down for 12 of Wigan's points
The knock on and then the penalty in the first half and then the silly offload, but like you say he didn't have a bad game at all and I can see his confidence slowly coming back, but with the supporters we have shouting racial abuse at him and as someone has pointed out booing the player as he comes on is nothing short of being dam right disgraceful to a Bradford player.
It was the same at St Helens, the same at home to Wakefield and it's happend again last night.
The club need to urgently flush out the racist supporters (of which it's only a small minority) because it's putting people off coming.

| I have to quickly say that at no point last night did I hear any rascist abuse from where I was sat. None at all. Lots of general abuse about his ability, but nothing rascist.
