I have always thought Hemmings hated Warrington ... The "oh nooooo" when Grix scored against Hudds in the Play offs... The "poor Richie Mathers " when he saw red for almost removing Matt Kings head.. And the "really" when Catalan had a try chalked off by the VR..Are a few examples but,He's not even trying to hide it any more..
A few people have told me Hemmings and the other clowns were particularly bad the other night but I wouldn't know as I haven't seen the game back..
I have just moved house and I cancelled my subscription and to be honest I'm probably not going to renew it.

Just wondering how we square all this 'Eddie hates us' with his 'Briers for Britain' campaign?

That was before Tony Smith ripped into his mate Stevo for asking a ridiculous question whilst he was GB coach..
Hemmings and his cronies have disliked us ever since..

This thread smacks of paranoia. I can buy the fact that people think the commentary is poor (though surely you can't complain about the actual coverage-watch the choice of camera angles for a Catalans game and try and argue that point!); but to suggest anti-Wire bias is a little silly. The fans of most clubs in the league probably think Sky are anti-their club: most people cited Stevo as a closet Rhino, yet the South Stand had a spell of regularly chanting 'Stevo what's the score' when ahead in a televised game.

Generally I think the coverage is pretty fair. However the commentary can be poor (much prefer BBC for this), and I don't really get Barrie and Terry. Clarkey I don't mind, and Wells and Carney have freshened up the format. I'd prefer Woods with another (varied ex-player) summariser/opinion giver, and ditch Cummins (who is only needed as the current lot can be a bit vague on the rules, and obsess about refereeing decisions too much!)

With all this"everybody hates us "negativity thought I'd stumbled on the Wakefield forum

You lot are OK ,the Sky lot seem to love Derek and his Leigh boys.. Good luck to you

It's quite funny knowing we get under his skin so much.

The bias isn't a problem for me, the problem I have is for a minority sport trying to attract new fans, we spend the majority of the analysis reviewing decisions than showing the skill. The commentary (not just Friday) is generally about errors, penalties and mistakes made by both players and officials, whereas the NRL commentators wax lyrical about the moments of skill. It's a completely different viewing experience.

I'm not calling for propaganda, just to spend less time scrutinising the mistakes and enjoy the game. I couldn't care if Ablett's hand was on the ball or not, it's a knock on, show the game! If we can't find something in 40 minutes for Wells to look at other than the Atkins knock on and the Westwood 'tackle' then we are in desperate times indeed.

After tonight I would like to see us decide not to speak to Sky. They are a ing bent shower.

I was at the game and in any event don't have Sky Sports, but, understand that we aren't their fav's what was tonight's particular annoyance Browny?

Phil Clarke said we wouldn't make the 4 playing like that (inability to score)

tonight's annoyance must be a easy one for us all too safely say annoyed every one of us.
that was Eddie's ocd on Kurt Gidley for a mistake.
actually like the fact when Gidley did make the 1 mistake he made at the Base of the scrum. it wasn't actually referenced.
