Oh, I don't know there is a strange undercurrent of negative feelings towards Ashton. And don't worry, Riley Dean will follow the Gaz O'Brien and Dec Patten route eventually of our fans dissing him.

Wrench and Thewlis do seem to be immune so far, but just wait until they've played more games and they dare to make a mistake.

They both copped a lot of flak after the Wigan game.

<sigh> A lot of fans thought Dec Patten (sic) was not good enough to be a SL standard half back despite having 100+ appearances to "bed in".

Were the atrociously demanding fans wrong? I wonder where he is now ...

Call me sentimental but I think our Challenge Cup winning captain deserves a good send-off at our last home game of the season.

At least chaired off, if not guard of honour, flocked by sobbing fans.

I know, I know, but when he first came on the scene, that was NOT the view.

If only our fans were nicer those players we moved on would have been world beaters by now.
