The critics who deride our support tend to come from teams who have had decades of success, or have little or no competition from football teams in their town. Wigan and Leeds fit the first, Cas and Warrington the second.
Our plight is similar to that of Huddersfield who are facing falling crowds and a increasing football competition.
So any interest from outside has to deal with that. You can understand a degree of cynicism of why would someone bother to invest: what's in it for them. The good Doctor is an enthusiast and so we can understand that. These names are not.
There are the many false dawns. I feel like a kid whose December 24th has become groundhog day: promises of presents that are always yet to be seen. So again I watch the tree being put up, the wrapped presents stacked in the corner, the smell of food being prepared; I know that I'll wake up tomorrow to see and smell the same things: the promise of tomorrow which never comes.
The issue is why I still attend: and I do.
A couple of points of order, I wouldn't say that Warrington fans are over critical of your support, we understand that it's tough going and the stadium relocation thing hasn't been handled that well, particularly by the RFL and the eligibility criteria that wasn't then applied across the board.
What football team do you have in your town? Yes I understand the lure of United and City but are you suggesting that no one in Warrington has a football team to follow?
Btw I hope you stay up and sort yourselves out
