don't like to see another fan being called pathetic whatever your view.

I call it as I see it - and I'm free to do so as it's an open forum. Just as Forever Blue his entitled to his posts he is equally entitled to receive criticism. I'm sure players read this forum and they have now read that they should be sacked after having just won a game. What a wonderful way to read how your fans are responding. Like it or not - posts like that ARE pathetic.

It's an opinion.....simple! I can see Neils point too and he's frustrated!! We just want to see effort each and every week! I can't comment about TO as I didn't go but were he to make the same comment after Sheffield last week I don't think many could argue! My only gripe regarding this forum is the select few that take a holier than thou stance and don't always allow a difference of opinion which in my eyes is censorship and not what debate is about. I also LR take your point as valid but at the end of the day they are paid sportsmen and open to criticism as part of the game they play! They should be grateful they are not Wendyballers as everything is open forum in their lives even private stuff!! I dont think an impassioned cry from a very loyal fan is pathetic more misdirected passion.

I think by far the biggest problem on this forum is that we don't have enough actual debate. Just 1 post and then 18 posts arguing whether the poster was correct to post it. Get on with it ffs.

Obviously !!!!!! We lost !!!!!!!!

Yesterday we won. That's the point I'm making. I would like to say that if he wants to go and watch us put 60 points past the opposition every week go and watch Wigan. Oh wait . . . they lost at home to Catalans. Well well well . . . . . . what is this game we call rugby league? Surely it can't be so competitive that we, who have a god given right to be at the top of the table year in year out, should find ourselves struggling a bit? This isn't what I signed up for when I became a fan! I"m going off to to sulk for a bit before I take a course in how to "man up" and stop bleating. I'm also going to learn how to use forums so that I don't get my knuckles rapped in future. I think Tony Fax does crash courses in this very subject . . . . .

Up the Fax for god's sake !!!!!!!

they certainly do....................

I was even accosted (in a nice way) by Mr Steele in the Press Box who asked me if I was,by any chance,'sanjunien' ? I replied rather reluctantly,errr,yes,why ?
he said he found my comments 'illuminating' or similar - don't know if it was intended as a compliment or complaint ?

so,rest assured all your comments are noted here by the highest authorities !

We have won a match, that we always should have, well done.
Doesn't change the fact we have more coaches than Abbeyways, leak more points than Julian Assange and have a copy of Kevin Keegans 101 ways to self destruct, as tactics manual.
Im nervous about the semis now, Dewsbury or Batley at home is a must, theres no way we are ready for Fev or Leigh.
One swallow does not make a summer, theres still a lot to do to gain my confidence in the management.
Getting ahead of myself here a bit, but for a number of reasons i would not like to play certain teams at Blackpool, should we get there, shudder, im sure some of you know what i mean straight off.

No such thing , great isn't it

I just think people get a little tetchy on here sometimes especially to say we all want the same thing!! We'll never have a 100% equilibrium on here as opinions are differring constantly!! The point I was making is a week in sport is a long time!! Had FBAW said sack the players last week he'd have got a here here!! This week he is pathetic!! LR don't go the way of Tony Fax your actually an ok bloke!!

yes,pretty sure ! put it this way,

not knowing him from Adam I asked him as a Fax representative of some kind 'is MC under any pressure,is he facing the chop the way the results are going ?'
this gentleman replied 'well,i'm the chairman of Halifax and it's not club policy to sack managers on a regular basis' - had plenty of chatting with him actually,you'd be surprised what his feelings are towards the club & fans etc !
and before you ask me NO,i'm going to tell you what he said........

btw - the guy who I thought was Mr Steele last time around was there also,and I said hello to him as well

Quite right he would be speaking "off the record"
