One reason why Im falling out of love of our great game - our administrators should hang their heads in shame.

I've learned to just let these sorts of things go over my head and just enjoy 26 lads going head-to-head on a Sunday afternoon; despite all the Super League malarky, I've actually found these past two seasons to be two of the most enjoyable in my 18 years of watching Leyth.

What's the IRFL?
If only there had been so much interest in the welfare of international rugby league in Leyth back in June.

Don't think the crowd (which I didn't think was too shabby at all, as it happens) can be blamed on any lack of Leythers being there.

Don't get how that's Leighs fault.

Got nothing to do with Leigh as he well knows. If rugby league fans can't be bothered to get of their behinds to follow the international team then thats hardly our fault. They don't have any bother in RU do they. Its not our fault the RFL is destroying our game to the point coach firms don't think its worth putting coach travel on from different parts of the North of England.

great post...just enjoy the greatest game in the world- where we do differ however was that my fav season was super league.
despite our struggle i was seeing world class players . never forget when we beat london and we also had a couple of great tussles at leigh with saints and wigan.

i want a return to super league desperately

I was referring to the apathy and negativity towards the France game from many on this board. No interest in international rugby league, given up an the RFL etc. Yet here we are a month later and the very same people are here criticising the very thing they claim they have no interest in.
If you didn't post a month ago giving your excuse for not walking down the road to see international rugby league on your doorstep then obviously none of this applies to you

...and many other boards too....

I ll criticise the move by the RFL and I along with a lot of other Leythers went to the game . I can`t say that for the likes of the Pies, Wire and Saints fans who have significantly higher attendances. So stop spouting broken biscuits, especially if fans of those clubs can`t be d travelling a few miles to watch THEIR own club players playing for England.

Without a doubt. Folk on the Wigan board are doing exactly the same thing, but they're usually the ones who don't like things called discussions so I've given up with them.
It's an interesting one with a number of rugby league fans who on one hand are adament they have no interest in the 'farce' that is international rugby league yet on the other mock and deride every decision made by the England coach, RFL (in its international capacity) or Four Nations/World Cup failure.
