The atmosphere was reminiscent of the Boulevard last night. Probably because most that were there were pass-holders and people to whom the success of the club is genuinely important. The 10k last night created a much better atmosphere than some of the larger crowds that the club attracts. Amazes me when you see some sitting there motionless and in complete silence. Maybe it's just me but I cant help but get animated and into it!!

Yawn

When did you become a troll?


I'm not fed up with false dawns. I'm no glory boy. I just want a decent team with some attractive rugby being played on occasion. We're clearly heading in the right direction, even if we only beat mid table sides. Go support Celtic if you can't man up and take a few losses.

I'll let someone else dispute the claim that we were playing a "team of pensioners" as you put it. All I will say is that you can only play what is in front of you. And we have every right to praise the team on getting a victory regardless of the opposition. Nobody is claiming we're world beaters all of a sudden.

We had 4 regular props out and the team still did a job on Salford.A lot of the players put they hands up last night.
If people stop away then they missed a good game.I can understand fans missing game if they are short of money But not just on the back of one bad game.

For someone that as stopped watching FC thinks the clubs rubbish, the teams rubbish, the coach is rubbish you name it you sure do post a lot on here, somewhere that holds no interest for you VoiceOfboringnow

Why do you come on here if it depresses you so much.

Time for the VoiceOfDerision to just silently delete this forum from his favourites (Leaving just his normal left-handed websites) and go watch the mighty Tiggers.

i must say,that my journey back to jockland,was more pleasurable after watching that smashing game,then the sunday previusly.

Agree with pretty much all the above MMJ. Moving games in itself was always going to have an affect and a particularly with cash flow for the casual supporter as it a big ask in the current climate to shell out weekly for a good number. I am sure if the team show the spirit & desire they did on Friday consistently then the numbers will increase steadily. It's always harder to get fans back than it is to lose them.

Well that's me buggerd for the cup and Hudds matches being on Thursdays...I can understand the logic of playing the cup match on Thursday so that we have a week turn-around but the Sky Thursday night games really cheese me off.Dont they understand people work shifts and find it hard to get time off.....I work 5pm to 3am and have set hols so have to miss them.

To be honest, its utterly pointless complaining about the days of the week. There will NEVER be a day of the week where it won't clash with work or other commitments for everyone.
I work 9-5:30 Monday to Friday so any weeknight is fine. I have the full weekend I can spend with the kids.
Having games on a Sunday completely wrecks that day and it's spent waiting for 3pm.
