what a muppet u are do you now how cringeful you sound... mayb its these fans what are keepin the club running spending there hard earned money and urll tellin me the club and players shunt appreciate that by coming over to the shed and say thank you for your support fans like me who stand in the shed have been there all season win lose or draw...

i was very impressed by the stewards and officials i thought they were very helpful,and also the salford fans applauding leeds off too.
after recent events nice to see.

moment of the match for me was fitzy's try saving tackle on lautiti. body on the line. got up a bit wobbly and with a limp and went straight in on the next tackle... brilliant

It is nothing to do with the players being criticized it is the abuse that their families(including wives and children)have received from people in certain areas and I have seen it and heard it over the years and it makes me embarrassed at times.

Some of the know-nowt's hurl beer,verbal abuse at the players/families one week and then want to shake their hands the next,that is pathetic which ever way you look at it.

It should not come with the territory in this day and age and it is allowed because some misguided people, including the know-nowts are allowed to prevail.

Thought you were the better side and have to admit that we got some fairly dubious decisions.

Like to take this opportunity to thank all the Salford fans for their hospitality and look forward to coming back to the Willows next year.

Do you really think that the ones who slag and abuse are the same ones that are going to bother to hang around 15 minutes after the end of a defeat in the hope of thanking players for their efforts?



I'm not sure where this has happened but I don't think that the wives and children stand in the Shed.


It's unfortunate that after a really entertaining game that we're talking about the lap of honour (that I freudianly called a [ilack[/i of honour last night), but it's kind of apt given the number of PR balls ups that the club has managed this season.

There third try i think it was, was it not in touch? It looked it from where i was stood and in that same set of 6 a couple of tackles before that it looked as though they was in touch and the game carried on.

Thanks mate.
We just lack that killer instinct when we get in the final 20.
The speed we play is another issue and something I hope will be addressed in the close season.
As for the ref.... please,please, please, go back to France
At least we have given the Champions a run for their money and forced you to earn the shield

Great match but some dodgy decs again, we most have done something really bad in a past life,
but I must say since Mrs Doyle left the club couldn't organise a p155 up in a brewery.
Nowt in the club before or after the game either no music and nothing to say why, it appeared that the club were just happy to get to the end of the season and couldn't give a toss about the lifeblood of the club.

I didn't hang around after the match last night so didn't see the players leave the field.

However, as a fan and former Shed-inhabitant, it concerns me that our players apparently don't want to walk infront of/clap/thank the Shed.

As much as several of our more illiterate posters on here can criticise the players for not doing so, and that some of of more sensible Shed-dwellers will've been upset for the lack of gratitude, I am actually quite glad the players have taken this decision.

I have, on several occasions, been embarrassed by the Shed this season - either for poor behaviour (beer throwing, booing, etc) or for a total lack of vocal support.

Whilst it is normal and hence expected for sportsmen to thank their fans, there are only so many times you can kick a dog before it stops coming towards you.

Maybe this also explains why we're losing so many players at the end of this season?

Fans who want recognition at the end of the season need to think about the they, as a whole, behave duing the season.

I wouldnt read to much into the players not coming over, in 2007 buddha and Hodgson didnt even come over when it was their last game

I have never once booed the players this season despite some abject
performances. If I don't like what I've seen then I just keep quiet and I don't applaud. As far as I'm concerned no player goes out to play poorly
deliberately and if they do it is either because they are either not good enough or that the tactics they've been asked to adopt are clearly not the right ones. As far as I'm concerned the few 'fans' who have berated the team with a torrent of abuse are in the minority and as such should not have even been a passing consideration to the players last night who should really should acknowledged the majority of true fans who have remained supportive of the team throughout the season.

I'm not sure where this has happened but I don't think that the wives and children stand in the Shed.

Iain, I have witnessed these people abuse the players, their families, directors at various places IE From within the shed, at away matches,Perpignan during Karl Harrisons last season with us, in the variety centre, granted they are from a minority.

Many of the wives and children, friends and families now sit in the stands.
