If London is Athens, Yorkshire is Sparta, a tougher community and proud of it.:3676.jpg



Look, it wasn't our night. Wigan, FWIW were cracking. On top of that they got every rub.

Sh*t happens. Good sides make their own luck. Tonight we weren't good and Wigan were very good. Congratulations to them.

Good- next time don't stick two fingers up in front of my kids. You probably spent more than the 10 quid in the pub.
Loyal not glory is what is required.

Quote: Fifi "Well there were a lot more other fans left early apparently - she must have been pretty busy berating everyone and that 'loyal supporters' chant is really annoying particularly as it mainly comes from kids who wouldn't know loyalty if it bit them on the rear
Quite hypocritical having a go at the players not "turning up" when supporters don't even stay to show their support to the team. If folk are going to go home everytime the team get beat what's the point in turning up. Leroy and Joe wardle tweeted how gutted they were about their performance and both said they owed the supporters a big win - they were appreciative that the (loyal) supporters had stayed to the end. If you want to be a glory supporter get to Bradford- they are old hands at it.

Bentham did his best to keep you in it tonight but failed, your kicking game is horrendous without Brough. Im asking this as a serious question, not trolling, but do you think as a team you've grown to depend on him too much since you signed him? I dont remember you being that bad pre-brough, i couldnt believe the amount of times you went for power play close to the line on the last tackle. Like you were afraid to kick.

That loyal supporters chant was a complete take, when people have 30+ years following our team then the kids can have a go till then it aint called for.

BTW i stayed till the end but thats a personal choice and i do it week in week out

We were outclassed in attack and defense, simple as. Great display by Wigan, they are a classy outfit and a hard team to beat for sure!

Wasn't kids having a go it was the hardcore support many of whom I recognize from the old fartown days. People who have stuck by the team when we were losing every week and they have every right to call themselves loyal. You are right it's your choice whether to stay till the end- but if people choose not to then they should expect to get the same stick those same people would have given the Wiganers doing the Wigan walk under other circumstances.
The players appreciated the fans staying to the end and it will encourage them to do better next time.

Quote: jools "

Thats utter rubbish - so if you leave early you should expect to get stick for doing so - from who exactly? The 'loyal' crew? how many of you are there my friend?. I have more respect for those who stay til the end and appreciate the teams efforts and don't chant 'loyal supporters' rather than a few select kids and 'newbies' who now appear to have staked their claim to fame and ram it down everybody's throats at away games when we tend to lose.

Why not contact the club and you can all be suitably honoured for your loyalty.

But seriously its everyone's choice whether they stay until the end and its not down to you or any body else to decide or rebuke anyone for leaving when they choose to do so. We turned up last night - pity the players did'nt.

The 'loyal supporters' chant is childish and pointless. I think that is Gahan's point - from where I was sat there were a few older supporters but generally it was the younger fraternity.

Anyway onward and upward.

If you have a choice to leave I have a choice to rebuke. I have been watching giants a very long time. My daughter has been going for 5 1/2 years my son for 7- they both went to their first game at 3 weeks old- does the fact they are young make them any less of a supporter which is what you seem to be saying. Perhaps if I'd have had my kids at 16 and they'd have been there when we were losing every week then they would be better supporters?

I dont think you do. You have no idea about peoples personal circumstances and the reasons they do not attend or leave matches early.

The giants need more fans END OF. Whether they are old or new, glory hunters or people who have been following for years.

Any actions by ANYONE who may have the effect of putting people off attending is counterproductive..

When we are getting 15000 to a game then you can relish your holier than thou attitude. Until then i suggest that you act in a way that will encorage people to come back to games rather than p them off.

I had two tickets for the game which i paid for , but in the end i did not even go to the game . Am i worse than someone who left 10 minutes from the end icon_confused.gif:

You have no idea about personal circumstances - quality response though. Come back with a 'my dads bigger than your dad response'! quality.

Everybody has the right to do what they want and NOT BE SUBJECTED TO A STUPID CHANT claiming you and whomever else are 'loyal' supporters. You need to grow up. We are fans of the same club not seperate factions of a supporters group. With your arrogant attitude you will drive supporters away rather than attracting more.

People's choice whether they choose to leave early....especially on nights like yesterday. Personally i've never left a game early and i stayed to the end and carried on singing for the lads....lets not forget as well as playing terrible we also played a top quality team who just happened to play excellently on the night .....maybe they took our lads by surprise and we couldn't cope with them but ATEOTD its a blip, a blip against the best side i've seen in the comp this year so heads and voices up and we roll on to next week !!!!
