14-6 down, and the boos are ringing out at the willows.





Don't think it's just the players that need to have a look at themselves.

It depends on what you expect. Certainly, getting thumped by the "weakest" team in SL is very worrying- although in my opinion NOT unexpected.



The blind support vs. critical support debate has been done to death previously. As I have stated previously loyalty is a two way street and I for one am currently very disappointed with the club. There is a lack of direction (on/off the field) and no meaningful communication.



What we have is the usual whinge fest vs the shut the f8ck up brigade. For once it would be nice if we and the club all pulled in the same direction. Some evidence of planning and communication would help this happen.

Not only poor on the pitch, but i arrived early to watch a rerun of a past match and some entertainment, what do we get nothing and no information as to why.



I think jw has too many amateurs around him and these are pulling the club the wrong way, i would get some advice from Sale about any pre and after match club entertainment because they must be doing something to get the people in.

Such as?



I'm not having a go here, I'm genuinely interested. Perhaps your ideas are something we can broach to the club.

Indeed.



I had 4 others with me (3 who have been before but a not yet complete converts, 1 who had never been).



They weren't put off by the quality of the RL, or by the Salford performance, but they were significantly less than impressed by the constant booing and general lack of atmosphere (especially after I'd harped on about how much better RL fans were than football fans

)

and another thing why didnt they use the time before the game to announce to every one that the stadium will start in march, some fans may not have heard this....

I haven't been to any of the games so far this year but if they've been anything like last year you can hardly expect the place to be rocking.

Why not

the boo's were for the same dumb defence that they could have looked at and sorted out a few minutes earlier, the boo's IMO weren't necessarily aimed at how bad in general the team are, (nobody really knew at that point?). Then to concede further tries to the exact same play time and time again I think the boo's were appropriate. FWIW I dont blame any of the players for the defeat as they simply aren't good enough - Crusaders could have put 50 on us! I do blame lack of organisation, go forward and effort, a tiny glimpse of that and the result could have been different. I believe that's the coaches/managers job to sort that out and its obvious they're not up to it, I think the boo's at the end of the game were aimed in that direction of disappointment rather than the team itself.

Do you think the new and/or young players (Ratchford, McGillvray, Smith, Holdsworth et al) saw it that way??

No, thats why I've tried to explain it on here along with numerous posts that blame McRae and not the team. Hope they read it.

The atmosphere in the shed on Friday was eerily similar to the Reebok for the last two years, some of the comments from a group stood behind me were really unpleasant even in the heat of the moment.



I really hope the booing stops because it does little except sour the match day experience IMO.

Can understand the booing at the end however when you are 8 points down with 65 mins to play I don't think it is called for. Even the reception at half time was dire despite being just 2 points behind.

The booing is wrong, plain and simple. Out of interest do any of the group that inhabit the central area of the shed post on here? A lot of the embarassing fans seem to have taken over that area and most of the nagative cr*p comes from that direction.



I've stood in the middle of the shed for 20 years and find it's the best place to watch the game. However, with the I have to listen to every week from some of the idiots near me I am seruiously considering moving elsewhere in the ground.

Plenty of us.
