Ahh your talking about headingley, that's about 7 miles away!

Think a few of you may be being a bit harsh on Sykes and the Bradford fans.

I didn't cheer, at full speed I thought he'd be in the bin but slowed down it wasn't that bad, but definitely at least a penalty.

Could I please have an honest answer, if it was on one of your big fellas like Lima or Lockers would there be as much slating? I think because he's your star player there's more people jumping to the defence of Sam (rightly so, every team in the world would love him in their side) but I haven't seen a malicious side to Sykes' game before so it would surprise me if it started now.

You may be right about Sykes, but high shots on Sam Tomkins are becoming quite the norm in Super League these days, and Wigan fans are understandably getting a bit fed up with it.

The idea of someone putting a high shot on Lima or Lockers is frankly laughable - given that, unlike Sam, those two would turn around and deck the perpetrator, it tends not to happen.

Indeed. Sykes was lucky Joel wasn't on the pitch. So are we to be honest 'cos he'd probably have got himself banned for the final.

Said the same to my lad at the time . Think Joel would have got himself in big trouble had he been on the park at the time .

Good point cruncher.

I'd be a bit peed off too if our star player was a headsot target.

Would you be more peed if a comment was made then that happens straight away?

I dont know what was said but i'd bet it was along the lines of 'take his head off'

made my laugh the other day when bradford bulls where selling 2 adult tickets for 10 quid on living social, very very desperate if u ask me

Well you wont have to worry Ewwen.
You don`t have any star players

Five pages on one tackle! Is this for real?

As for counting away support, what does that matter?
If the Bulls had taken 5K they wouldn't have made any brass out it, so what does it matter?

Seriously? It talks about the state of the game. When one of the bigger clubs in SL brings approximately 20 fans on a Friday night you know the game is in trouble.

Well look at it from a players point of view, must be very demoralising to see such a poor turn out away from home. Some may think if the fans can't be d then why should we bust a gut.

Or you could look at it we travelled in huge numbers to Warrington to see about the 5th "can't be ar$3d" performance of the season followed by arguably an even worse performance against HKR in our most important game of the season. Wigan were red hot, we were woeful, it was on SKY. it is understandable it was a poor turnout. Still disappointing but understandable. Our away support as been very good this year.

One has to admire the loyal away fans who did turn up. In difficult economic times, it is perhaps not surprising when struggling clubs have so few away fans travelling on a Friday night - especially if they know they are likely to be thrashed.

I think that a game being televised can also sway supporters who may have otherwise travelled to stay at home or go to the local pub and watch the game. The vast majority would still go to all the home games as they are season ticket holders and thus have no major additional financial outlay.
