I totally agree.

No matter what happens with Warrington, trophies or relegation, I'm a Wire and always will be. I find fans who b1tch on here every time we lose about how they're not supporting us anymore blah blah just really irritating. Either man-up and support the club or go and whinge somewhere else.

Now don't get me wrong, I love a good spout about how rubbish we/certain players are doing but I'm not threatening to leave over it.

I can just hear Jimmy now.... "please don't walk away Oxford Exile. Please support us, we need you".

*Edit* Don't be all offended Oxford Exile, I only used you because of your original post. No insult intended

I find people who moan about fans booing and complaining really irritating also.He is entitled to his opinion, people are entitled to boo - they pay their money. How else do you show your displeasure apart from not attending. Just because you do not choose to boo or moan does that make you correct?
I can just hear Jimmy saying now ....thanks for your support rugby chick and we will take your positive criticsm on board. I have missed a handful of games over the last 20 years but just because he did not choose to attend the match does not make him any less a supporter than anyone else!

I don't think you should complain, not as if you have to play Gateshead, Oldham and Batley week in week out is it?

I'll never walk away from them. However, and this is worse in my view, I'm not sure I really give a toss any more. Not as much as I used to anyway. It's hard to be bothered when some of the players aren't. I used to believe, naively, that regardless of their performance, they'd always give their all. I just feel a bit silly now.

This is exactly how I feel now. I have sort of become anaesthetised to it all. I only go to the games out of some sort of dumb loyalty and fond memories of going with my late father. My expectations are now very low.

Exactly how I feel. In the very recent past, a defeat like Saturaday would have put me in a stinking mood, now it just washes over me.

A slightly different take on it was the amount of people there. I go as part of a group of seven, there was three of us there on Saturday evening.

Add me to the list of those who have been frustrated beyoned depression to simple boredom.

Very, very sad times. 23 years of passionate unswerving support crushed.

Sort of got my earlier last season with me opting out of the season ticket for the first time. I am now sort of opting out of going at all until I can see some honest endeavour and fire in their play.

Pity you can't replicate the same type of spirit that the junior side I coach showed yesterday when they turned around a 16-6 deficit to win the game in the last seconds 18-16. More heart and team spirit shown than any one of our so-called elite team.

Come on Wire, find your balls and prove me wrong.

I'm in, I made my thoughts clear the other night, stick a fork in me, i'm done. I've never felt so low where Warrington is concerned, and never felt so uninspired by the offering as I do right now.

I don't eat things I don't like, I don't do things that I don't enjoy, so that's why, right now, I'm having a little rest from the rugby. If that makes me a part time fan, or whatever, i'll take that. I can't feel any emotional attachment to the coach, his methods nor can I justify in my head many of his decisions. If your players are a reflection on you, then I can see why our lot don't seem particularly enthused, as he has no enthusiasm.

Reminds me of Frank Rijkaard in his last days at Barca. Just no enthusiasm and a permanent face like a smacked a'rse
