Ganson would have binned a player from any other team below Leeds in the table for that sort of backchat without a seconds thought.

Your quite right there. He sent Luke Robinson off for a lot less against Wakey at Belle Vue.

Why no sin binning though, every time you see them they give the refs constant grief, moaning, groaning, arguing blatant penalties (how many forward passes do they get away with every game). they're the most penalised team in the league for a reason, the more you get in their faces the more they moan, groan and resort to being the dirty cheating team they are.

Agree thought he should of binned another they already had Webb in the bin, then gave away an array of penalties, but he bottled taking them down to 11 men.

I too wanted Wakey to beat them even though it would have brought them within 2 of us, the number of times that Whinos steal the ball in a 2 man tackle and the ref's don't see it amazes me.

I believe they DO see it fella --and I bet some of Burrows marginal forward passes as well !!--but tend to turn a blind one!!

I think the pivotal decisions were about 8 mins before end when he decided to ping Wakey for offside at play the ball --when lots of times Leeds at infringed similarly - and Wakey ignoring Kear re 2 pointers which I am sure would be "mentioned" to the capt!!!

Nowt changes with a lot of the pink shirt brigade and the game suffers !!

They kept going on about Atkins. Jeez he was Senior's b*tch all night.

And the gate. Last year 9.8K. This year 6.4K. That is around £35K down on gate.

Not Wakey's night.

Have you got a calculator handy?

Thought we were unlucky tonight. I believe not taking the two was the right call. It's easy for you guys to look in hindsight, we kept the pressure on their line for 4 mins and they were down to 12 men, with a bit of luck we may have scored. Also, if Leeds needed the two points to win the game they probably would have kicked the conversion to the end try. So at the end of the day we took it to them and came up a bit short. Great game to watch and a good advert for the game. This is what Superleague is all about!

Hmmm yes it makes real sense to say there was less people in attendance at a game! (r.e licensing)
