Facilities: Wakefield

Pitch: Bradford (The corners were fine when they could score tries, not so useful anymore)

Fans: Somewhere between Wigan, Hull and Hull KR. We aren't talking about the most fans here but the worst fans. I'll use Bilko's argument about Wigan and the 2 occasions they've attempted to kick off at the HJ, not to mention the arrogance of the fans. What gets me the most is the people who have supported the club since the move to the JJB, but live in the glory years of the club.

Not touchy at all, it's just baffling how people can call the support of teams such as Wigan, Hull KR and Leeds when they are the clubs who are front runners of attracting people to the sport.

You've obviously more chance of having a bad 'personal experience' with teams with a big number of support than you will with teams a low number of support.


I didn't realise we had to base our opinions on your experiences.

That'd make for a pretty short and boring thread

Ah yes, but Wigan are the biggest club in the world and can attract massive sponsors, world class players and win multiple trophies every year.

This time machine works wonders

Which match was it last year that your own players shunned the fans and walked off rather than acknowledge you because of the stick you were giving them?

18th man my ar$e.


The first time they've been superior to us is the first few games of this season.

Just because they can beat us in one off games doesn't mean they're our superior. We have consistantly finished above them every season for the past couple of decades. (In 2007 we were level on points because we had two points deducted. We was still consistantly better than them during that season.)

Regardless of what happened against Huddersfield last year, we finished higher and was one game away from the Grand Final where as they finished 10th.

Don't get arrogance confused with fact.

Facilities - I'm embaressed to say Saints! (the Gents Loos are the stuff of Legend!!!)
Pitch - Bradford (those corners!!), Warrington (sack the groundsman, as well as the board, the manager/GM etc..)
Fans - Hull (FC & KR) - the only time I have EVER seen Riot Police at a RL game is when Hull or Hull KR are playing!!
(Saints fans sadly also get a mention - sing a song about sniffing glue followed by 10 minutes of silence - followed by a song about Ryan Bailey's amourous liasons at bathtime - followed by a further 10 minutes of silence only interrupted when Saints score a try!)

How far back you wanna go?

As someone as already said, sheer arrogance, there was a time when we were top and handing you your asses but you have to go back a bit longer than your tender years :wink:

Worst Facilities: I'm not suprised at Wakefield being many peoples first choice but Wheldon Road is a dump too, amost as bad as Belle Vue.

Worst Pitch: I'll go with Bradford

Worst Fans: The feuding factions of Humber Town, for their constant derailing of any discussion.
