COM'ON WEMBLEY LETS SHOW HUDDERS WE ARE A EXCELLENT SIDE AND WIN THE CUP "warrington deserve the cup , though and though coz we are the best fans in the whole of super league"

down the wire .

Now nowone has a go at Riley he was the one who got dropped for the 60 point drumming we got against harlequins he comes back in the team an we win.Yes Riley makes mistakes but at the end of the day he makes up for them.Have you all forgotten that try he scored against Bradford earlier in the season.IMO I believe one day Riley will play for England.

o dear

I really hope no professional sportsman reads fans forum websites (including this one!!).
They could very easily lose the will to live!!

At the very top level the difference between players is often psychological -hence all of the emphasis on 'imagery' and 'visualization'.

Even if they play well there will always be a negative poster.
They're entitled to their opinion, but any professional worth his salt won't look on these websites.

Regarding Penny - he has tremendous speed but is still new to RL. The likes of Briers have been playign since the age of 10 or so.
TS recoginises this, and still thinks he has a future at Warrington - maybe not this year or next. So he's just got to apply himself and ignore all the doom-mongers.

Pat Richards needs to be dropped as well, he's dropped 2 balls that have led to 12 points. Awful.

When Penny took up his position near me at the start of the 2nd half he got a mostly good reception from the SW corner. Odd because a few of them had an audible winge about him when he made his (admittedly, awful) mistake from the 20 metre restart.

As for booing...

Well, I think booing the team is a whole is stupid, counterproductive and something I will never do. However, I can understand why some people would want to do it and in my view they at least have the right to make that choice, having paid their cash, even if me and Tony Smith disagree with it, however...

...booing a particular player is, in my view, unforgiveable for the most part, especially when the player in question tries so hard, every single second he is on the field. He has his faults and he has his assets. The only remaining question is whether he can eradicate his faults to the extent that he is worth a place in the team. His assets mean it is well worth making the effort. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that the Warrington supporters are willing to wait any longer. For the lad's sake, I genuinely hope it is our loss if that is the case.
