Quote: lothlorian "I always fancied a decent win today with KR being without half backs. But when you consider how many we have out ourselves then this should not have happened. Youve seriously got to question the heart of the KR players being embarassed like this. No good for Super League. Woods comments in the media look very silly now. You can only kid the general public with smokescreens and mirrors for so long before they start to realise what a bad state rugby league in general is in this country.'"
Hurrah top post and at last a SL fan seeing Fat Controller aka Nigel Wood for what he is, Mr Spin who is destroying our game and has created a chasm between fans of SL clubs and the rest, those of us who are left below SL and they are dwindling down here because of the Franchise system there is no interest. I know I go home and away with Halifax RLFC and see the actual crowds and it is shocking, I am sad when I see them it gives me no satisfaction at all to see a third and sometimes up to nearly half the crowd at away games being from Halifax, many times less than a thousand and away fans coming to us can often be counted between ten and twenty!
Sad thing is there will be those on here who will attack me for this saying I am just negative, well so be it but the truth will come out one day, hopefully not too long now as the game is in decline and the score at Hull KR is in my opinion partly down to a lack of RL players playing the game and part of that has been caused by selfish SL clubs doing away with 'U23's or Reserve grade' teams to save money passing the buck onto Championship clubs to take their dual reg players when they have a player available or not!
