come on the lads !

the kc visit is one of the highlights of the season for us, theres not many grounds where you feel as safe, there may be plenty verbals flying from side to side but it is well stewarded. as for not going because we lost last week i think its a poor excuse. tomorrow is another day. they are going to have a big crowd behind them and the boys will need all the support we can muster, so if you are 50/50 then go, if they win you can tell your friends you were there.

There's no such thing as a 'true fan' for mine. Following RL is a social pastime for you to do to a level of your choosing, you shouldn't feel obliged to do it to a prescribed level. If there's a part of it you don't enjoy, why do it?


:CLAP:

you can be a fan and not go to every game due to personal circumstances.

money, kids other activities, other leisure pursuits.

rugby league is not the be all and end all, and anyone who slags off fans for not attending every game whilst they themselves never miss a game have either too much money and time on their hands, or they dont have a full and varied life.........ie......they need to get a life and join the real world.

for what its worth i am a liverpool fan, and ive not been to anfiend for years for financial reasons, and im a pittsburg steelers fan and NEVER been to pittsburg...........but i wore my pittsburg shirt with pride on sunday in protest of us not having a shirt and there was no way i was wearing last years with JJB on it.

If a usual traveling supporter easily has the time & money yet decides to skip a game because of the fact they don't like the way the team are playing then fair enough, they're a self-confessed fair weather supporter which isn't neccessarily a negative thing or anything to be looked down on but it's something they might struggle to accept.

I was talking to a guy at the Leigh game who is a staunch Bury FC supporter. "Oh, yes", he said. "I've followed them through thin". Made me smile!

You go to a restaurant have a good meal once, twice and the third time it is awful. If you did not go on the next weekend is that not rational?

I worry more about the 'blind' supporters who refuse to criticise and turn up irrespective of what utter tosh is put in front of them. It was these 'loyal' supporters who saw and were party to the club being relegated to Division 2.
