None taken. Quote away. Surprised Wire didn't put on free buses for those two semis we had, I think I could have paid for them.

As opposed to all the Wire fans who suddenly appear when they get a cheap ticket and a trophy bought for them. Its swings and roundaabouts I suppose.

Nothing cheap about Wembley.

Who's been buying trophies?

Parry Gordon's passes,Les Boyd's strong runs,Mike Gregory's workrate,Des Drummond's tries,Jonathan Davies' sheer genius...........oh,and Alan Rathbone's punches! All memories of the legendary venue which was Wilderspool stadium. Gone maybe,but never,ever forgotten. Warrington 15,Australia 12.:icons077e_files/5445-3661prettyflower-msnicons.jpg



I tell you what lads,let's just not take these bradford people on. I have encountered them before and they sure have a an unusual mentality in that part of west yorkshire. Let them have their moment and continue blindly convincing themselves that their team of has beens and never will be's have a chance. After all,they are allowed to dream,aren't they? icon_wink.gif

[b:33tg3xj5]Me:[/b:33tg3xj5] I'm still reeling from the news that someone is considering watching the 1st and 3rd game on Saturday and NOT watching Warrington play. It's like being in Shea Stadium when the Beatles came to town and deciding to nip out for a fag. [b:33tg3xj5]knockersbumpMKII:[/b:33tg3xj5] Is it FOOK, you're good but you're not THAT good, jesus you wanky fans need to get over yourselves, Beatles at the Shea in '65 was a once in a lifetime opportunity for some (despite the following years performance), you can watch a very good team in primrose & yellow play every week if you really wanted to but comparing it to one of the very best music groups of all time in an iconic stadia such as the shea is overegging your importance, you're not even the best team in SL atm:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_50086.jpg

So you're being snooty about a team being in the doldrums for years suddenly having an increase in their support base when they win a trophy and/or start to compete on the field. There's a Superleague name for that, it's called 'Bullmania'. There's also a name when said increase in support base desert the team when things go the other way, it's called Steve McNamara.

RL is a minority sport, we can't afford to get precious about who comes to watch and how they get to the game.

There is no doubt that Simon Moran has made a significant contribution to Warrington Wolves success. Then again, so has the work carried out by countless people at the club over the past 10 years including the Community team, the Foundation, Squadbuilder (something your club are using a model to form their own comically titled 'Bull Builder'). To suggest it's all down to one man is silly, lazy and shows a lack of intelligence.

That's to say nothing of the impact the new stadium has had on our fortunes or the fact that we haven't been stuck with massive legals bills because we can't read a contract properly.

For what it's worth, I find the arrogance and hubris ((C) Wires 71) of a section of our support as unpleasant as you clearly do. Bradford are more than capable of smashing us all over Odsal - we got dry humped by Hull KR a few weeks ago, a team that the Bulls dismantled with ease if the score is anything to go by. However the way to react to that, in my view, is in reasoned debate - not with cheap digs about buying trophies and fans.

And not forgetting ploughing thousands into the bulls by taking 3000 to 6000 over.

Halifax kicked out - on BBC.
On the face of it it seems like one rule for SL clubs one ruile for the rest.
Why weren't Hull thrown out last year (I think it was) then if fax have been this year?

That Bradford three quarters is one of the worse ive ever seen at the Bulls, having the likes of Sykes, Platt and Reardon in your squad doesn`t say a great deal then you have a 2nd rower playing at centre in Nero.

The only players that would concern you at the Bulls are Orford, Menzies, Kearney or Karney whatever he wants to be known as and Langley. Kearney is in and out player, he`s hardly consistent from what ive seen of him. Menzies off loading and running at gaps out wide is always a danger, Orford for obvious reasons and Langley is a strong forward who makes good yards.

Rikki Sheriffe can be slightly dangerous if you give him too much space but our defence should be up to the likes of him.

Nothing else reaally concerns me about the Bulls.
