Right lads I've just read the forum & my team for this week is......

[i"Hey Richie.. put that squash racket down and come over here... ok, whats the word on the forum about the Hull game"

"<scratches head nervously>.. erm well they are saying Brown isnt fit to wear the shirt, Evans is clueless, Sims is a second rower, Patton is complete rubbish, dwyer needs to move on, Hughes is second rate"

"anything else"

"erm..... well they just say were totally rubbish"

"anything ELSE????""

"yea, SMITH OUT"

"RIGHT..... write all those names down, they're all starting on Friday... now pick that squash racket up and lets get down the Jubilee centre... first to 7 wins"[/i

Happy now flying biscuit?
Call me a happy clapper or whatever insult you want to sling at people who have a different opinion to your own, I am sick and tired of key board warriors who seem to be trying to outdo each other with their unhappiness. Tell us all please, if you feel so upset at what is happening what are you really doing about it, rather than writing on this website? Have you actually made your feelings known directly to the club, written a letter, set up a meeting with someone with responsibility ith the club? Have you offered any positive solutions to the problems you believe exist? If so, please share your feedback, we would all be interested. I am disappointed with the teams performance and have been for some time, however, having been in business for many years I know that things don't always go the way you want, especially when your principal asset are people. I know this won't change the persistent doubters but if you really feel as strongly as you do, show how brave you are, contact the club directly and ask for a meeting to discuss your concerns. They may or may not accept, but at least you are trying to do something positive.

With respect, is it no longer acceptable to criticise our rugby team on the leading independent RL forum without first taking best endeavours to contact the club with suggested remedy first? If you do not like dissent or anything contrary to the view that all is peaches, then perhaps you can try the Warrington Wolves facebook page. If it's certain posters you do not like you can block them so you never see their posts ever again.

As for positive action to register discontent, not going to the game and watching on TV seems to be the way forward.

Oh come on, there are approx 70 pages which must be hundreds of posts whinging about Smith,the team etc. By all means have your view but if you are not prepared to do something Positive about it, it just comes across as moaning for moaning sake. There appears to be a race to the bottom now on criticism.If you feel so strongly as you and others do, get together and set up a meeting with the club. I am sure they would listen to you. Who knows you may also learn something...you not going to a match will not even register. Try something positive, it could be enlightening.

I suppose the frustrating thing is to reflect upon this post from the Broncos match, and try to understand how/why things are now so different, just a few weeks on from that great night:

"Re: Tonight's game v Broncos
Bit late - but congratulations on a fantastic win; a tactical masterclass from Tony Smith, and outstanding execution from your lads. Clearly the strategy of pinning the Broncos in their own half and stifling their reliance on a very structured exit set paid off - and Wire's willingness to a) bash them in the forwards and b) play a very expansive, open game - did, as Thaiday put it, rattle their cages. Lovely stuff - one of the most entertaining games I've watched in a long while.

Brown obviously had a blinder, but for me, Gidley gave one of the best individual performances of the weekend - he's pure class."

Have a word with yourself

I do have word with myself regularly to remind myself that moaning does not change anything so take positive action. You obviously believe different. So be it, it's your life. Happy clapper.

I'm not sure what the forum equivalent is of "shouting someone down", but it does seem that any opinion which doesn't match yours is met with that type of response.
The phrase "happy clapper" is clearly meant in a perjorative way, however it appears to refer to anyone who doesn't hold the same, totally negative view as you. I appreciate why people may want rid of TS immediately, I happen to disagree. I can see why the teams performances have been viewed as disappointing and I largel agree with that, however I do think the first half against Hull held promise of better performances to come, that is my opinion and if that makes me a "happy clapper" then so be it.
I appreciate I am only repeating what I have put on another thread but according to one poster as it wasn't on this thread it had no validity...not sure why I felt the need to pander to such a view, but there we are.

Reading that was like reading the old Sparkomatic vs Bick arguments on the old official forum with you playing Sparkomatic and Biscuit playing, well, Bick as he would. Great entertainment.

Regrettably I never made it onto the official forum, but I'm liking the sound of Sparkomatic (presume he was named after a Serbian footballer).
