Victim mentality? Fans want their holiday away day in a summer month for the first time in years, that constitutes a 'victim' mentality?
It's Catalans and the hotels in the area that are the 'victims' when the bigger teams get drawn during a winter month on consecutive occasions. People like myself, who would have gone, will be sodding off to Brazil (or somewhere hotter) at that time instead of shelling out holiday money on what will probably be jumper weather. If I were Catalans I would be kicking up a right fuss.
Catalans are more worried about themselves. Ensuring they have 9,000 each week from the local area, and make sure the club is going for years to come. If I was them, I'd be more worried about trying to push to 10,000 Catalunians than a choice between some slack jaws from Wakefield and some theiving Plastic Scousers getting smashed in their streets.
The victim mentality comes from the fact Saints fans seem to find a consipricy against St Helens at every turn.
You have taken that decision to go to Brazil over going to watch Saints. You cannot blame the fixture list for that, but your own desires.
I feel I am having the same conversation/debate with fans with this set of fixtures.
