No, it isn't. I wrote 'bagging'.

I have a season ticket and have done for years now. I have been to watch the club all over the country, including Whitehaven on a Wednesday night when we couldn't buy a win. I'm a fourth generation Fartown fan.

But I don't wear a replica shirt (although I would if they brought out another black strip) and I don't sing or chant. Why? Because i go to a rugby match to watch rugby, if I wanted to sing I'd go to a karaoke contest. I'll cheer and shout encouragement but not sing. That's just my way of supporting the side.

None of this makes me a better or worse fan than anyone else that supports the club to the best of their ability. ATEOTD everybody is an individual and that means we will all support the club in ways that we feel appropriate but one thing unites us all. We all support the club. Full stop. As has been mentioned before you cannot berate someone because they don't share your beliefs, it's not a cult or a religion it's sport.

i dont think daz was trying to "bag" anyone or have a go at anyone i think like me and a lot of others who were trying our hardest to raise a bit of vocal support for OUR team,majority of supporters didn't want to know.
fair enough the team's performance and going behind in the first minute didn't help as most people would have been disheartened.
the thing that disappoints me is that a lot of our supporters failed to support the team on saturday,when they needed a lift, our supporters failed to do that,when the decisions for the tries went against us they needed the fans' backing,they didn't get it,im not slagging anyone off its their choice whether they want to be vocal or not, some people are happy to just sit and spectate and not get involved thats fair enough but we had enough "supporters" on saturday to make some noise and try and lift the guys but for some reason the majority chose to sit in silence.
most of the people around us were complaining about people standing up and encouraging the team. its not just singing that im talking about,im talking about just clapping the lads or shouting some encouragement for them, im afraid our lot showed no passion at all on saturday and i cant help but feel that wire fans' passion and noise helped them get on top

right, ok as the original poster can i just say that i have calmed down somewhat and maybe i was a tad harsh at first due to the emotions and dissapointment running through me at the time.

I didnt mean to 'bag' anyone or make out anyone is less of a fan because i know that you guys on here are the real fans.

i guess it was just a case of i felt a huge sense of let down as i expected the cup final to be a party occasion whatever the result but obviously others didnt share that sentiment on the day.

i'm stil sticking to my point though that we could have tried a bit harder but anyway the day is over now, the memories are still there and i'm starting to get ready for the play-offs !!!

That's exactly how a lot of us felt at the semi. You killed us with that very quick try and we really never looked like getting back into the match. You had us nailed just as Warrington had you nailed. I think Smith must have spent a long time studying that semi!

It's really dispiriting to go to Wembley and watch your team lose. I know, I've been there and done it! But don't give up. There is always next year! I know it costs but it's worth it for the win when it comes.

Get a grip look in today's examiner.

The players said the fans were great and so for that matter did the examiner.

It's the player's opinion that matters not the other fans.

I sometimes despair with long standing Huddersfield fans who only ever see the negative. We are winning by 30 and they moan at the players/ref/anybody.

As Durham giant says, loads of positives. If you're going to be negative then don't come to the game.

rlThe Daily Telegraph had good things to say about your supportrl, just scroll down a bit, so you may not have been as 'bad' as you think you were.

Quite a nice piece that, and good for RL too.

I don't need a right wing rag to tell me what our support was like.

Excellent article by the Telegraph. If only we could have as much publicity year round instead of soccer 24/7 with other sports living on scraps.

Is this thread not a little harsh?

I think nerves can often subdue a group of speccies and the early score from Warrington would definitely have done that. It was pretty quiet in our section as well at the start of the second half, only when it became apparent that you guys weren't going to run riot over us in the second half (which I know I thought was going to happen) did we all start to find our voices again.

If we had scored any of the half dozen chances we carved for ourselves in the 3rd quarter, we might have heard the two sides change volume too, but it didnt happen

How childish. You do seem to have some chips sitting firmly on your shoulders.

Would you really rather Huddersfield took 5000 to a Cup Final?

Imagine what would have got said by other teams fans if Hudds did that, they would be the laughing stock of the league.

I suppose the 30000 Warrington fans are gonna have trouble getting in the Halliwell Jones for the rest of the season as it only holds 12000 odd.
