I think what you're actually saying is that the referee was biased and that any evidence to the contrary must be a 'falsehood', to use your term.
I live in London, I don't need to be born in Warrington to watch them.
I assume from your dopey comment you think only birth certificates from Leeds town hall are accepted to obtain a Leeds season ticket.
Get thi sen home Grimthorpe !

| to be fair if i was going to write a wire match report it would be the most one-eyed, over blown wire love-in and would be entirely disparaging to the other team
then if a speccy from the other team turned up and started claiming it was biased i'd be like "yes... and your point is?"
i remember the commentator from the video highlights on the old warrington site would literally be shouting things like "com on wire!" and i don't think it ever crossed my mind that i wanted him to be less biased
how dull would life be if everything was sterile and objective? the lad's written a great match report from the point of view of a leeds fan, live and let live

Leeds has been cosmopilan since about 1880 ,that is why the leeds accent is not the accepted yorkshire dialect.You should hear Castleford aiming their antisemetic chants at Leeds

I also thought the VR should have cancelled out Westwoods try and should not have cancelled out the Leeds try that Kylie allegedly obstructed a Wire player.
For me Kylie did not stop the defender nor did he make contact so try every time.
But no doubt if I watched from the comfort of my lounge I would probably have a different view.

The RL for letting them stay in SL maybe.'"
Ashley Klein, i think they have started a petition.

| As a Leeds resident I would back up lionarmour, to say that the Leeds accent is that broad Yorkshire 'thee or tha' is like saying the Manchester accent is like Paddy McGuinness or Vernon Kay. The Leeds accent is like Garry Schofield or Ellery Hanley.
Also what lionarmour says about being more cosmopolitan is true, although Leeds isn't exactly London. A lot of the smaller towns in Yorkshire that people make fun of as being inbred are basically the same communities that they have been for centuries, people that 'make it' in life might leave but nobody moves there, whereas Leeds is a place outsiders move to like I did.
Leeds is also a far better and more interesting city to live in than Warrington. Warrington centre feels like it's dominated by young chavs, teenagers and booze Britain, Leeds has its fair share of neanderthals but there's also a lot more class to it than you get in Warrington.

Your comment about Warringtons town centre residents betrays your ignorance.
Warrington is a huge place and much more than the town centre.
However as I found myself this weekend Leeds is an interesting place to visit, and the fish market is worth a look.
But it's also full of chavs and nerdowells like most towns in our fair land.

| I'd say Warrington town centre is dominated too much by clubs and bars than it is by Chavs.
Also, I know a few people from Leeds who do use words like "tha", "mesen", etc.
Just like I know people from Warrington who have a slightly scouse accent, others from Warrington who have a slightly manc accent, accents are traits you pick up from those around you and considering Leeds is this 'cosmopolitan' place that people move towards it would be ridiculous to suggest that there is only 'one true accent'. The same is true for any given town or city.
Another example is people from St Helens, a lot I know have what we'd probably call "wooleyback" or "generic lancashire" accents, and yet there are others I know who sound like they're out & out scousers.

Unfortunately, there are no towns or cities in this fair land that are free from the blight of the lesser spotted Chav.

| Look I have nothing against Wire fans at all ..Indeed my perception of them changed after the 2010 CCFINAL.I and my group were applauded onto our coach by Wire fans after we had been mullered,not may other club fans would do that,thankyou.Now I live over sea's ,but I am a born and bred loiner and I do know that anyone that speaks tha and thee !Cannot have been born in Leeds ,unless people from the old mining area's 3rd generation ?who know's ,but last time I worked in Kippax ,or even Rothwell 1994 they were still Cas and Wakey ,but they spoke the "mining dialect".The op did not hear a Leeds person say "tha"
