Easter is here, and the weather is great, several exciting games on the cards, massive crowds due and i'm sure we'll see some fantastic games,
BUT...................................
Most of the news around the game is negative, Mcgoldrick's paper artical, Cockayne's racial slurs, Alker files grievance with Reds, players saying the game becomes "mundane". And this follows on from Ryan Bailey's comments on the earthquake in Japan, the Martin Gleeson saga, and countless other unsavory incidents
With such a period in store on the field, all the hype should be about the games, but players and officals drag the game down to the gutter and then complain when the wider public fail to take us seriously or allow super league the exposure it undoubtably derserves/needs.
I just find it so frustrating :eusa17: :eusa17: :eusa17:

Re: Shooting ourselves in the foot
Well said Mikey.Unfortunately as in all walks of life people in an exhalted position often put the boot into a sport they are supposed to love. And expect we fans to except lame (I'm terribly sorry if I have offended people) excuses.It would help if they bothered to look at the example set by professionals the like of Billy Boston's of this world.It is a sad indictment of the way sportsmen and sport seems to be going these days.Sad really but a fact of life.Mikey800 wrote:Easter is here, and the weather is great, several exciting games on the cards, massive crowds due and i'm sure we'll see some fantastic games,

Re: Shooting ourselves in the foot
And the quality of the games these last two days has obliterated all of this.
