cant see the point of booing players at all, the only effect it has is to make them worse

[quote="danna-blue2"]I figured they werent bothered why should I be?

a team doesnt go into a game not been bothered, they get outplayed. face it salford outplayed us in every aspect of the game, but you stick with your team no matter what the score becuase its about loyalty and commitment. im not saying it makes you less of a fan that me or anyone else, but uve spent good money to watch a game, so stick it out for the players who are trying, but this time just didnt click with each other. dont slag the team off otherwise they will think that the fans dont care and will get slaughered each and every week.

I think our "kids" such as Myler, Ratchford, Goulding anfd Turner ran the show.

We now have a good blend of youth and exprience.

Just goes to show that Robinson is an average scrum half and will never be in the same league as Myler

I didnt say they did go into a game not being bothered. I agree Salford outplayed us in every single aspect of the game. What I was saying was I went earlier because I felt I could utilise my time better. The team were not interested from the minute the game kicked off. They were waiting for the "other guy" to make the tackle, make the break etc. etc. I have stuck with this team for the past 16 years and will continue to do so. I dont slag the team off, I simply put forward my opinion on their performance in a polite manner as is my right. They know the fans care, the reason why they get grief from the fans is because they care, if we didnt care we wouldnt turn up and we wouldnt give a damn how we played or if we won would we?? The team getting criticism is hardly the reason why they lost today or any other time...it was because they didnt perform like they can for whatever reason. I have witnessed many slaughterings by the likes of Leeds - I was there in that first season stood in the stands at Leeds singing "We only came for the cricket" because the score was that big. I didnt "slag" them off then and dont now.

whilst im impressed by the salford kids ( not including wigan's goulding!) im sure robinson was once a good promising talent? im sure when he was a good promising kid at salford he was more than just an average player?

No passion.
No commitment.
No ambition.
No effin clue.

That sums up our performance today. Low points. Not finding touch with the first penalty. Not being able to defend our line. Passing to a player stood in front of you (twice). Inside ball, inside ball, inside ball. What are we going to do on this tackle, oh I might have guessed inside freaking ball. Kicking on the last tackle near the Salford line EVERY SINGLE SODDING TIME. At one point we had at least a four to one overlap and Robinson ran along the line and then kicked sideways FFS. Kicks that where either too hard along the floor or just lobbed throught the air into the in-goal area, every single one resulting in a Salford tap on the twenty. Getting a scrum near the Salford line with maybe time for one or two tackles and what do we do? Give the ball to Faiumu who runs in and gets tackled, excellent way to waste a tackle.

yeh i appreciate that n by the sound of what your saying yo've been watching the giants a lot longer than me n you sound like a much more experienced spectator than me. it just really gets me frustrated when people leave early even if you do think you could be spending your time more wisely. i mean 10 minutes is nothing you might as well sit it out just to see the end of it seen as though uve sat through the first 70 minutes.

Couldn't sum it up much better than that.
