it would do,seen as they were all next to the commentary position and therefore the microphones.
still, a cracking turnout and very vocal support,well done crusaders,lets hope more of you can turn out next year.

Considering your team was crumbling half way through the season, I would suggest that the fan base you have so far built up are amongst the best fans in not only Super League, but rugby league. Great effort by your team followed up with fantastic support from your fans. Congratulations on a well earned season.

Have seen this "positioning in front of microphones" arguement.

It doesn't cover the fact that the commentary on BBC Leeds online that you could hear the Crusaders fans over the Giants when the Commentary team were in the opposite stand. I was also sat to the side of the Crusaders fans close to the Giants fans and there was nothing coming back throughout the game. Only cheering when there were tries. Just for once, you could say that the Crusaders fans were singing for the full 80 minutes and were as loud (if not louder) when their teams conceaded or went behind. Exactly when the players on the pitch needed the support

If you think there was nothing coming back then you are deaf in one ear pal.

We were sat next to the Giants fans, how come the mike didn't pick them up aswell?

A couple of verses of what sounded like "Can't help falling in love with you" after you had scored don't compare.

Stand up for the Crusaders
Fat Robbie Savage
Bread of Heaven
Hymns & Arias

and the obligatory Cru, Cru, Crusaders for a full 80 minutes made the atmosphere fantastic. To say that they were only heard because they were in front of the commentators is tosh
