| I still don't like the "Wolves" name, I never use it, will always be "Wire" or "Wires", likewise I never use the HJ Stadium name, its just known by me as "Wire's Ground" or "going to Wire's"

| PA music after trys/goals are scored
Warrington having "Wolves" tagged on to their name
Grown men wearing jester's hats/face paint/any other novelty attire to matches
People who use this forum regularly but still haven't grasped the concept of the swear filter meaning words like "poop" and "booty" regularly appear in their posts when that is almost certainly not what they typed
Warrington not being champions
Knowing already that no matter what we do next season we'll find a way to ensure in September or October it is ultimately deemed a waste
Sky Sports
People on here who immediately jump to the club's defence even when there's no need to do so (eg when complaints are made about stewarding or ticket prices)
Cheerleaders
Continuing the inconsistency of some games having a video ref and some not meaning you still see trys chalked off at VR games you know would have been given at other games - it's been years now - have them at every game or no games

| The way video refs cannot disallow a try for a forward pass even though sometimes it is crystal clear the ball is passed forward....................on top of the fact they can disallow a try for a knock on!!!
Does it really matter how the ball travels forward???

| Quote: Old Man John "Some that spring to mindPeople on here saying "Have you rung the club shop" when somebody asks a genuine question.'"
Clarification required on that one, does that include really obvious questions, where it would have been quicker to actually ring the club shop, than come on here, do a post and wait for an answer?

| Must admit I don't really care what the ground is called, probably because I always just refer to it as "the ground" anyway.
"Wolves" has irritated me a lot for 16 years though. It even winds me up when fans of other clubs refer to their own team by their Super League era "nickname". I can handle Cas and Salford doing it because they probably did refer to them as the Tigers and Reds/Red Devils in the past anyway, but hearing Wakefield fans call their team "Wildcats" for example just bugs me.
As for Huddersfield - they seem to chant for "Giants" and "Fartown" in equal measure. Well which is it hedge betters?!
The only two I find mildly tolerable are Bulls and Rhinos, but that's probably because they took off in popularity so quickly I've been forced to get used to them. The rest though - forget it.

| when a team is out of tackles, 6th, on attack and kicks deep to make the ball dead under the sticks.
The defending team restart is only at 20mtrs, for me it ought to be from 40mtrs!!

| People who keep going back and forth to the toilet every five minutes during a game, having consumed copious amounts of alcohol that they blatantly can't hold. (And if you were that bald bloke with glasses in block WU201, row 17, at Old Trafford, then yes I DO mean you!).

Apparently the ref's video replays will not show forward passes...the machines are made by a company with branches in Leeds & Wigan.

49863_1309431041.jpg Neither glass half full or empty. Just a realist.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_49863.jpg |

| The ball being booted downfield, and it going dead, and the returning side only start on their own 20. If it's gone dead, after it was kicked anywhere outside say 30m from the posts, the opposition should start from 40m out. It's just plain laziness/no attacking ideas from the original team.
Only having forwards on the bench
Getting my hopes up, when we've established a 14 point lead in a GF
Lack of biff (but not outandout thuggery/cheap shots)
Driving home from GF defeats in silence (at least Mrs G had just started watching the Sky+d Strictly when I came in, and a certain Breakfast presenter was on. I cheered up a bit, then)
Lack of atmosphere outside the ground for a GF
And Olly ####ing Murs

| Quote: Bobby Digital "Early bird season ticket renewal'"
The Early Bird renewal day is like the DFS sale. Will it be like last year in that due to popular demand the deal will be extended. The other hate is that when those that buy a season ticket later will get a free foam hand or Grand Final t shirt or some other product the shop can't sell.
