why should i care, why should i care inside outside, leave me alone inside outside, nowhere is home inside outside ,where have i been OUT OF MY BRAIN ON THE 5.15:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_50629.jpg



Quote: Catpiss #2 "Funny that, cos i was stood amongst the people who stayed in the stand for a short while after the game. Geordie wasn't amongst them, he was in the apron watching up at us, there was a person with a smaller drum stood within the 'protest' party however i think he explained on here following the game that he wasn't protesting against cull but supporting. Which at the time i thought was a strange comment, or strange thing to do considering what was occuring.

When i got bored i walked down the steps and stood and had a natter with geordie briefly, then i left, at no point was he involved with what was going on, so i reckon you owe him an apology and need to buy a better phone.'"


i dont mean after the game.
the chanting for cullen out, started after the interception try, and like you said you started to walk down after the game, im on about during the game, i was there and seen it for myself. i reckon you need to think back , cos ive never forgot and never will,

Quote: Geordie "You may hear a drum but I can categorically say that it wasn't me and the simple reason being is that I absolutely loved PC as the Warrington coach and for everything he had done at Warrington. Sure we could all see it was going sour but he didn't deserve that.
'"


Going sour? It had gone sour a while back. PC should have fallen on his sword way before and done the honourable thing. Instead he stayed until it was clearly untenable and the fans turned on him.

Quote: Wirefan "I read it as; Warrington boo there team when things don't go their way so if that's your attitude, you will be at home there with them.

He's on borrowed time there now i tell thee.'"


That's how I read it too. He is feeling the pressure there clearly, despite a mid table position which you think he would be used to.

You know I think the "boo boys" as they are called were actually passionate Warrington fans who had clearly had enough of the dross that was served up on a weekly basis. This culminated in the disgrace that was the home game against Castleford.

For the avoidance of doubt I didn't boo but thought if it would hasten his exit that would make the appointment of a superior coach happen sooner and therefore bring success sooner. I was correct.

To be honest I think a lot of those on here who blindly followed the PC mantra owe a lot to those who saw him for the limited coach he was and is and acted on their belief.

There are a number on here that would have given PC another 6 years to deliver nothing.

I don't consider Lowes a better head coach but you are entitled to your opininion. Tony Smith was not available to be appointed at that time and was appointed as soon as he became available.

Having said that it was obvious by the performance that night that Paul Cullen's position as head coach was unsustainable for even one more training session.

It's OK expressing your concern via a sit in but quite another to throw some of the personal garbage at a proud man in front of his family.

Will you do the same to Tony Smith if it goes sour next year, I know it's unlikely but it would be interesting all the same.

By the way did any of the so called fans front up to PC in the street and repeat what they had said or for that matter did the idiots who gave it to Matt King apologise to his face as you were all quite keen to give it to him whilst he was on the pitch and couldn't do anything about it (not that he would as he's one of the nicest human beings i've ever met).

I just think supporters go overboard sometimes when it's tough and forget that the objects of your taunts and abuse are human beings with family's and are trying their best for "your" club.

Most Warrington fans are great people but as with most clubs they do suffer from a minority.

Course they will. It's the modern way. I blame Princess Di. Emoting all the time. If you show you care, you must care. Or you might just be a sheep. Probably with an England flag this week, cheering Andy Murray next week, slagging off Capello the week after....

I spoke too a mate earlier and he has the theory that Cullen May be sick of it and in truth wants too get out. He has a good income from sky.

His wife is still not feeling well after her operation in January...


Message for Paul Cullen...

Get out of coaching mate... Go take care of your wife and enjoy the game as a fan and enjoy your sky commitments...

Yeah, some passionate fans boo their team. Can't get my head round it and I find it pretty distasteful.

I followed Cull right to the end, at least publicly on here, but of course he had limitations. Still doesn't mean I didn't want him to succeed.

I didn't mean Lowes.

Does this mean that PC took a training session after being sacked?

Of course Cullen didn't take a training session after getting the axe. I said that it had become obvious after the match in question that the time for Cullen to go was there and then as he had (and if there was ever a case of an example of what the phrase means this seemed to be it) "lost the changing room".


ps I knew you didn't mean Lowes but he did fill Cullen's shoes as the right man for the job wasn't available at that time.

I wouldn't have thought it would have been likely, I just didn't know if you knew different. Do you know if PC was sacked, pushed or told to resign before he was sacked?
