Afternoon folks ... A quite bizarre incident happened in the first half of Sundays game behind the sticks and I just wondered what others views were on this.
There appears to be a split in the crowd between the Danny Jones fan club and er ... the anti Jones club resulting in 2 sets of fans having choice words with each other on Sunday icon_rolleyes.gif .
If it wasnt so tragic it would be funny (talk about sticking together to support your club c020.gif )
I for one dont rate Jones this season, I think he lacks confidence and wont back himself, So whats the answer ? drop him into the reserves and knack his confidence even more OR keep watching him let himself down. In his defence he did spray some nice passes out on Sunday ... BUT SOME had a big nasty red crosses on them.
Whats the answer ???

I don't think it was a case of arguing or being in Danny Jones fan club.Certain fans react differently to what happens on the field,the majority get behind the team no matter what to encourage the team to up there game,a small number like to vent there disappoint at certain players performances through not so encouraging loud comments,which the players often pick up on,this year the so called big name players Richie,Danny,Sam and Semi have all at some point been the focus of this small number of fans disappointment at there performances.Thus sometimes this leads to an exchange of view between fans during the game,however the same fans can often be seen drinking together in the bar after the game,no feelings hurt and no spilt blood,
That is the nature of rugby league take 20 fans watching the same game from the same place and you will get 20 different views on how the game went, and in my opinion long may it continue.

I get your point Alec to a certain extent, but in 45 years technology has moved on. Years gone by I'm sure fans chewed the fat over the performances in the pub, but now with the advancements of IT and social networking fans and players express their thoughts in this way. As long as it's constructive I don't think there's a problem with fans expressing their views. Players I'm sure will look on here and have twitter accounts. Some may even agree with some of the comments....

As for the fans, as Stealth has said we're not all the same and have different views. If they choose to have a debate over something in the stands and it's not offensive or out of hand where is the problem? I've had debates with opposing fans in the past which was all in good spirit. That's what's good about our sport and I don't think that should change. It would be a bit dull if we had to keep stum on the stands for fear of upsetting the sensitive.

On this topic Danny Jones was woeful last night. Every time he had the ball he gave the same deep ball over his left shoulder and he may as well told Leigh what he was up to before the game because it was so obvious. Poor old Craig Moss got crunched twice because Leigh knew exactly what he was going to do.

As for Obst he has been non existent in every game I have seen this season. Waste of time.

Coleman and March for me in the halves everytime.

Fans have argued since sports first started; some do it in conversation, others shout at each other on the terraces. At least it shows passion for the team doing well.

Personally I don't like to shout derogatory comments at players, but I can understand the frustrations that lead to this happening. Some people wear their heart on their sleeve -although in my opinion their actions are counterproductive.

What gets on my wick are those who constantly pick on one player good game or bad. I was stood at the scoreboard corner two years ago and one fan was hurling a stream of abuse at one player in particular. It didn't matter what the player did, he found fault. Even when the player set up a stonking try then went on to have a blinder he didn't say one word of praise. Odd, but every team has them.
