You'd be buying anyway, so probably best to dodge the invite.

Did you never get to Wilderspool then Smify
The worst one I seen was in Orange on the 88 GB Lions tour in Australia.
Lots of Aboriginal supporters turned up to the match in 4 wheel drive trucks absolutely loaded with “tinnies”
Made The House of Pain look like Sunday School

| Quote: Smiffy27 "Yep but ... imagine you are a young Warrington born player on the great stage and the Halliwell becomes a seething pit of hissing/booing ... not good. Or you take your son to watch his first game and you are unfortunate enough to see some "inebriated nutter" hurling abuse at his own team ... not good. I wish the person simply "releasing their frustration" would do it in some other way.'"
Smiffy, have you read my post? I stated that I'm fine with booing, as long as it didn't escalate into confrontation, or violence. Your post may be misinterpreted by people thinking I'm happy with all sorts of behaviour, which I'm not. If we keep shipping 40 points in a game, then you have to expect that the crowd won't be happy, whether we believe it's a fair reaction or not. Every SL club (and championship for that matter) should have back room staff that educate players, especially those breaking through to the first team, in how to deal with crowd reactions as an ongoing process.

Went to Wilderspool from the age of 6. I even leapt over the wall to show my feelings ... to mob Brian Bevan in his last game.

Just exactly in what direction are the club heading? Attendances dwindling. Defeats week after week. Club stalwarts leaving. 5h1t3 recruitment.
Did everyone walk away with a free tin of turd polish?'"
I think with the signings made and signings to come we can see the club realised the pack needed an overhaul, although we all knew the pack wasn't big enough pre season......
Not sure what you mean by being brainwashed? I am certainly not a yes man and will speak up if i am not happy with something.
This season has been a disaster and the club know that, i like the way they are backing Powell to make the changes and fingers crossed we see an improvement.
We were shown a new analytic way that the club are now using to target players, it was very in depth, i did ask how long they have been using this and they said from the end of last season, so lets hopefully in 12 months time be judging that a success

| Quote: Barbed Wire "Any context that you can share of how you arrived at your conclusion?
Please don’t take this as a slight on you, but this has been poorly managed end-to-end. There’s a game in 72 hours, it’s on a Friday night during a week of train strikes, the weather is great, the cost of simply being alive is creeping up, it’s on Sky and we haven’t won in so long I can’t recall what it feels like. WHY WHY WHY is there is something positive going on isn’t this being shared widely to encourage fans into the stands and to affect the mood of those fans who have had to witness the past few months.
The veil of secrecy around this looks like there’s a bit of shame and anxiety. While I always expect some ‘filter’ of who gets in to these events, if you only ask the opinions of people who think like you, then it’s a pointless exercise. Sometime you need to take your medicine, sit in front of someone who went to Hull KR, Catalan or Wakefield and hear how they feel (not suggesting that you didn’t attend, but I went to 2 from three and would have a robust set of questions for them)'"
I really wanted the outcome of this meeting to be put out much quicker than this to be honest.
I could relay a lot of it but we as a panel ( not influenced by the club ) has decided to put it out as one statement.
Any questions you have can be directed through the panel for us to ask or you can directly message Karl, he has said he will reply to anyone honestly so long as no abuse is aimed.

If that is the level of male cow poo discussed at these meetings, I don`t think I will have a pint with Daryl after all.

| The one line I will take away from those notes is the bit about 'some players are more open to critique than others'. That sounds like Daryl is hinting that he has identified some flaws and challenged certain players to do something about it, something which seems to have rattled them. I'll back Daryl on that one, since he does have a real record of improving teams and individuals.
Before this season I was in the camp of 'tweaking' things to get the best out of the squad, but if some don't want to be tweaked a little then I'm all for the 'total overhaul' approach.

Players given letters for the decision or undecided made on them, are they actually serious?. I hope they actually have a sit down talk first and the letter is afterwards, if not that is very cold.
Might be something that Karl has brought from his America trips on how they cut players.

Its a super league protocol which has been in a good ten years now

| Those last three paragraphs are nauseatingly sycophantic.
