Exactly daz- but that doesn't fit with the picture the saints fans are trying to paint of those nasty horrible giants fans who are well known for all that trouble they cause....... Oh wait!

The last thing the team needed was the fans on the back of their teammate to make heads drop- been enough of that in previous weeks.

Before we get carried away did anyone but Jools see anything as no mention anywhere else but you are proclaiming it as fact.

I saw the appeal. Nowhere in that appeal did it say that Saints fans were guilty of anything. Next.....

No- neither did it say wakefield fans were. There were some witnesses who commented on the Facebook appeal though. Also on other forums.

i don't think the fans were applauding ferres for the tackle, im pretty certain they were applauding his contribution for the previous 64 minutes which was pretty good.
i hope no one is dumb enough to suggest otherwise.

Just my thinking, but don`t expect those scousers to have much upstairs.

Deary me Thewlis - that 'statement' is embarrassing.

Danny Brough displayed immense restraint? Erm... really?
It's not fair that we don't get as much recovery time as Hull? Boo fricking hoo - what's that got to do with anything?

Put a cork in it and get on with your job, you whining tart. I said it after the Mason sacking fiasco; this guy is not good enough. Davy needs to replace him with someone who has half an idea.

One angle it looks over and on another it looks wide. So surely if you feel robbed at it not being given, if it had have been given we could feel equally as robbed?

As I've written elsewhere, "So, the ref goes to the big screento check whether a try has been scored. 6 camera angles do not show anything positive. the 7th shows that a try has been scored. Your argument would show the words "NO TRY" on the screen.".

It's not really the same thing as what happened on Sunday. In your example, the first 6 angles don't show whether it was or wasn't a try, but the 7th one shows it was. Therefore I would say it is a try.

However on Sunday there were only 2 angles, on one it looked over and on the other it looked wide. It looking wide is different to it not revealing anything at all.

Therefore on Sunday you have a 50/50 call and it just didn't happen to go your way. You win some, you lose some.

Well nice to see a Bradford fan on here 'crowing' bet he hasn't worked out Mullally will be on his way back when Brett gets his 6-8 match ban !!!
