Some good points here, but City Wolf has completely missed the point. I'm not saying that because we won everything in the garden is rosy. What I am simply saying is, 'show your team some support.' As someone else said, I wouldn't mind 20 wins like that in a season. This site has become very negative. Look on the bright side, we've got a good stadium, we're in far better financial shape than most other teams, our Youth Development is really coming along and will eventually bear fruit, and we're slowly but surely starting to get things right on the field.
To answer some of the negatives on this thread, there are two reasons why support wasn't good last night. We've just had a weekend at Edinburgh, Les Catalans weekend is approaching, and the events of 2005 at Hull have put a lot of people off ever going there again.

and thats your excuse and you're sticking to it?

No excuse, in 2005, a friend of mine was attacked for no other reason than the fact that he was a Wire fan. As a result I intervened because the Stewards refused to, the 'fan' concerned was dealt with in the Courts, but I will never go to the KC again. Quite a few others feel the same way.

Has a fc friend there who apparently counted 200, the other said 160... Now if they actually did that, it clearly wasn't a game worth watching But also is a disappointment either way. I like the stadium but it is pricey but as for travel, its not that much further than most the clubs in Yorkshire. Looking forward to KR in a couple weeks.

You must have been watching a different game ,the supposed high tackle was chest high and the forearm was nothing more than a penalty .

I had to work at in a couple weeks i need to take a weekend unpaid off to visit a friend. And was no point going yesterday as aforemented friend was in Barcelona. Is a stadium i enjoy going to and would have if i didn't have to work.

And to note for argument, didn't go MM and not going Barca.

The high tackle wasn't too bad, don't have a problem with that. The forearm was pointless, why should it be acceptable that once a player is tackled that you should be allowed to fall on someones face intentionally to hurt him.

If thats part of the game then fair enough, but i would rather not see it. Wouldn't be happy if it happened to a Wire player

Oh and Grix was good as usual. Underrated.

I have to agree, I wouldn't have played him but then that it why i'm not the coach.

Well done Grix

So why did you say that "it could have been a red card for me. He tried to take his head off"?
