| I'm done with this season, I'll probably check on results from time to time but my involvement as a paying customer is over. The owners clearly don't care, leaving me with very little reason to do so either.

| Quote: zapperbull "After todays Muppet performance its about time the Club wrote to the RFL about the standard of officiating at matches, its bordering on the corrupt side where the ref is starting to have a direct influence on the final score, whilst we were our own worst enemies, AGAIN, the ref was very poor.
I also think its about time we as fans stop showing any acknowledgement to the team walking off the field at half time and at the end of the game after very poor performances like todays. No clapping, No vocal encouragement, and certainly No booing, just silence as this will let the team and staff how frustrated we really are.
You also can't tell me GT is not having any influence on the coaching side, well after todays shambles i am wondering if he is what we need.
A VERY P£$%^D off loyal fan'"
Do you think the ref had an influence on the final score??

| I'm going to disagree with one aspect. I don't think the officials were bad. With the exception of the first London try, where a knock on was missed (it wasn't a stray pass from Leon, it caught a London player), but a lot of fans missed that too so I can forgive. Other than that, I thought most of their decisions were spot on.
As far as the players go, I don't feel like I want to waste my time commenting on a game that they didn't want to waste their time playing in. Sufficed to say I'm already doing what Zapperbull suggests. As soon as that hooter goes, I walk out. No applauding the crap I've just witnessed, no tweeting players saying it's ok, they need to know it's unacceptable and maybe they might start to give two sheets.

The players need a good look in the mirror. That wasn't a bad squad we had today, but we are doing stuff a side low on confidence does. Peltier, one of the biggest men on the field, passed the ball multiple times instead of just driving it in.
Strip it right back for KR. Play 1, winger scoot, play 2, Oldezki run on to the ball as hard as you can. Play 3 Peltier run on to the ball as hard as you can. Play 4 Roche run on to the ball as hard as you can. Play 4 get it out to Lilley. Defence, MOVE UP and hit the defender as hard as you can. I know London were offside a fair few times, but their attitude was to be applauded. To get up off the line and hit us as hard as they can. Where as we just look to hold. Infuriating seeing big men passing when at the line. Just run it in hard!
I haven't waved the white flag yet. The Dewsbury game is massive and they will throw everything at us.

| Decided not to bother today, and don't regret it after listening to the BCB commentary.
3600 there today, so I'm not the only one feeling disengaged and disenchanted. Hopefully the message will somehow get through to our owners that the loyal supporters (and I've been going for close to 50 years) aren't going to be taken for mugs forever.

Do they really care? It is looking more and more like they are just RFL stooges set up to complete the fixture list at the minimum possible cost. Or they really are just really, really bad at everything involved in running a rugby club from the top to the bottom.
I did go today. Don't know if I'll bother again though. It's such an ignominious end.

Learning how to run onto a ball would be a start. How many times today did we see some big bugger like Peltier or Oledzki passed the ball whilst stood still? The defence are then onto them before they've got any momentum up.
As far as the owners go, I'm afraid I am of the opinion that they don't care. Too much evidence to suggest anything else.

Players have shown evidence before of reading this forum. They will be getting tweeted with various opinions. No doubt some of them will be searching social media for their names or people's opinions. I'm sure they know. I'm not sure they care.

Oh, for sure. I was with them at the gym on Wednesday, and we tried the brand new machine for about an hour, until I was sick. But what a piece of kit, it has everything. Mars bars, Snickers, Kit Kats, you name it
