Good voice today from your lot, well done for making the effort to come over here.

Thanks to all the Warringon fans who made use feel very welcome today. I think the Stewards got a bit fussy and obsessive with our vicars who were acting in good spirits and I have to say for all their chanting never got offensive. Hope your heads aren't too sore in the morning lads!

For all the Warrington fans who applauded the Cougars at the end, thank you. Our lads gave 100% today and deserved appreciation. I thought for the first 20 mins were competed with the Wolves, albeit defensively. Offensively we never got going and thats credit to the Wolves. A very professional job by their players today.

Good luck to the Wolves. A nice stadium, a good set of fans and a great team. Hope you beat Swinton by a margin in excess of 80.

Well done Cougar fans. I was in the East Stand today and enjoyed lots of your chanting. The one about "Let's pretend to score a try" is a classic. I also heard some bloke sining the tune of "Wallace and Grommit" and also the "This Morning" theme tune.

Good luck for the rest of the season.

One thing for sure is your taem will have heard you all through the game. Great performance not many errors or penalties . Hope you all had a great day. Good luck for the rest of the season. Play like you did today and you are a real threat to other teams, Great set of fans you have .

Im just sorry about the chant some of our fans was shouting during second half at you,hope this didnt cause any upset and you at least had a good day out

Firstly can I say after just finally getting home after our ' cup final ' against the Wolves is thanks to all the Warrington faithful who supported us all the way and made our trip to the 'Halliwell Jones ' n specifically the Red Lion n Rodney a memorable one . Your backing and good wishes pre and post match were well appreciated - true RL fans who could see our support for our team. whatever the result...it was much welcomed..

But can someone sort out your stewarding....Im a regular Championship one Fan who loves watching my team play wherever ......but to be fair there were 200 tops of us today all just set on having a good day n the over officious stewarding completely wrecked it for us ...few beers n a good day out but the so called 'stewarding' was over the top , if you want to act like that P** off o football , I've come to watch my team get stuffed n be stared out by some brain dead Neanderthal........

Come on, we were on a 80 point hiding can someone really tell me why it is necessary to have eight SIA stewards (ie bouncers) watching over us like a hawk when there were only six in the entire Wolves standing area ....??????????

Wolves Fans , Cheers Love u U all 2 bits u were stars but I like loads of my fellow Cougars who watch Championship 1 RL week in week out without incident have no intention of being treated like thugs .......

Your Comments please..........

Well put Rach. I was sat in the next row on and said the same thing during the game. Yes there was noise, but nothing offensive and nothing in need of that much attention. It did seem to me like the stewards were trying to find something that didn't exist. It's one thing having visibility and a presence which I'm sure we all accept, but that today it was intimidating and unncessary.

There were a few F-Words coming from the monks it has to be said most of all the lad sat directly behind me who was hammered. It was dealt with by our fans (including some of the monks themselves) telling him he was out of order.

In the last 20 minutes a few monks were stood on the back row, they weren't blocking anyone's view or causing any trouble. But it seemed 2 or 3 stewards, if you can call them that, tried to make trouble. There may well of been ground regulations to uphold but if they'd have just said "Look lads, I know you want to stand up but because of (insert valid reason here) I'm going to have to ask you to sit down" it would have sufficed. However their aggressive manner only escalated things.
