Hornets first game today, at home too, then 6(SIX) away games, next home game 27th June.

I know the div 1 fixtures can be odd, and it could be something to do with the pitch, but it means they will be the last club to get fans in. It may be good for the later fixtures but they are mainly Aug and Sept when footy starts again.
 
I hadn’t seen this when it came out over the Winter. A good watch despite the poor results from the tour.

BBC - Once Were Lions

I hope it’s not the end of the Lions. I prefer the Lions to England as I’m quite big on being British as that literally is our nationality, and the one time we won the World Cup we won it as Great Britain.
 
First games with fans back tonight. I’ve not gone along though.

Wire look like we have no set moves or coaching in the last 20m, all looks off the cuff.

First time I've managed to watch us this season and it's staggering how shit we are! Proper boring as well, we've gone backwards under Price and I'm not sure why he's doing another year.
 
I thought he deserved another year last year after winning the Challenge Cup in 2019 (after a lacklustre 2019 League season).

But we were lacklustre again last season, so it is a puzzle why he’s still here this year.

In deep field play, we have good moves with deep runners coming through to make metres. But on the oppositions’ line everyone stands around and looks like they don’t know what there supposed to be doing, no runners, no angles, everyone looks like they’re waiting for Widdop to do something but how can he with everyone just standing so flat?

We are really boring and frustrating to watch.

Yep, there's just no spark or energy at all!
 
Watched Saints tonight, first half was dire but came good second half. The last try by Grace was brilliant.
 
I make my return to Headingley on Sunday night after being picked out in the ballot. I will be at the Etihad to welcome the team and then head across the Pennines. I will have to pace myself as I’ve got work on Monday lol.
 
Ive not been keeping up with Super League much recently other than Wire, been watching the NRL more.

Good performance from Wire tonight, think Widdop has got himself in great shape and he’s back to his best.

Yeah the usual shit statement. Funny how you suddenly get vocal, strangely, after a big win.
Rugby League Rags.

I was vocal one page ago after the Huddersfield defeat you fool. You come across as a right bitter United/Liverpool version of a fan in this sport.

It's actually hilarious that he thinks we're the rugby league rags!

Yet his opening post on this thread was “More Dire clutching at straws. Like to think of themselves as a top club but they're a small fish in a big pond.”

You couldn’t get more United/Liverpool-like if you tried.
 
Looks like Fages has 100% signed for Huddersfield and has managed to get a very good deal.
Best of luck to the lad.
