| Quote: Ranger "Sorry about that Rogues. Liverpool did it a few weeks ago. I think it was against Swansea, and the commentary team mentioned how respectful and knowledgable they were.
To be honest I think shows a lack of respect as it only happens when there is (supposedly) a difference in class.
We wouldn't have been clapping had it been Leeds , Wire , or Saints.
We also wouldn't have clapped if that try was in the 79th minute for them.'"
But the Liverpool fans weren't applauding the quality of the goal iirc, they applauded the ex-player who scored it...Jonjo Shelvey.
why im here...if the coach has to start blaming the crown for poor performance, then he needs to look at himself in a mirror. |

That was the try of the season, no way can I see that beaten all season, fantastic team try from Catalans.
There is no way Shaun Wane would ever have a pop at the fans.
There is no way I would ever applaud a Saints try, no matter how good it was. I did applaud he Catalans try.

| Quote: Rogues Gallery "A great try is a great try no matter who scores it or when it is.'"
But it doesn't mean you would celebrate it, or congratulate the opposition.
It all boils down to the importance of the try, and the impact on the game/season.
Catalans try was a cracker, but in a match that according to the league table we should have easily won.
I really don't get you clapping Saints. Especially considering your signature. That's your choice I suppose. |

Fans pay to attend and players get paid to play & represent the club. its a no brainer.
fans are entitled to either be quiet or be vocal (within limits of course) no matter what aspect of the game their reactions, or lack of, relate to.
NRL games generally have low attendances, yet their teams don't blame poor performances or "starts" on their fans! funny how they have probably the strongest nation in the game, isn't it?!
of course its good to get behind a team and its what every player and coach in SL loves, but no blame should ever be placed on the fans. he may as well have said we aren't going to turn up if the fans don't!
pretty crap marketing to be fair, Shaun!! :-p

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery.......
I will look to the moment, and miraculously, the future will take care of itself.

Brian, did you applaud Van Vollenhovens try at Wembley 1961 ?, if yes, did you need a lie down in a darkened room later. |

That is the one were Freddy Griffiths pushed Voll into touch just has he passed the ball back inside, if Griffiths had tackled him Voll would not have been there to take the return pass.
I was right in the corner were Wigan were attacking and to my horror I saw it all happen.
How this has finished up on a Cats Wigan thread I do not know, I must be easily led due to my age. |

| Quote: Rolf Zaugg "He said there are lots of areas that they need to fix and that the atmosphere, the crowd, "lent to a poor start".
So he believes that it contributed to the initial performance, not that the poor start was all down to any one thing.
Many people have indicated their disappointment with the atmosphere at home games this season.
Although games such as Catalan, with virtually no opposition fans present, have the potential to be flat, more effort is needed from the club and the supporters to generate some energy. Whether the new rlWe Are Wiganrl group are the first step to this remains to be seen.
Their first try was great, by the way.'"
We are Wigan are talking about logos and stuff. They're getting more inclusive and cliquey the more I hear. It'll be pyro next. |
