    Have we softened then in your opinion Phil, years ago I coached junior teams at County level and Yorkshire teams were considered the arch enemy, to put on that jersey with the Red Rose meant everything to the lads.

    Well it is only my opinion but yes, we always have some good banter, here is a good example, but not the intense dislike and hatred which adds that real edge down under 

  2. No no no, never ever ever.

    Why is origin so big down under? Because there is genuine dislike and antipathy between Qld and NSW, look at Bradman Best’s statement when asked about Qld, “I hate them” was his response. 

    Over here Yorkshire and Lancashire share a “Northern” culture, if we hate anyone it’s the south and they can’t put a team out.

    Really sorry about that Phil... unfortunately there are a small minority of fans from both clubs that can't let the past stay in the past.

    I for one, wont go to Fax, reciprocating the boycotting of Fev by the Fax fans, but like the vast majority of Fev fans don't condone that kind of behaviour.

     

    I was told later that several Fev fans went straight over and remonstrated with the individual, fair play to them

    Being reported that Sinead O' Connor 56  has sadly passed away.

    Rest in Peace Sinead you were a tortured soul but with a heart of gold.

    Morrissey can, sometimes,talk a lot of but this is absolutely spot on…

    “She had only so much ‘self’ to give. She was dropped by her label after selling 7 million albums for them. 
    She became crazed, yes, but uninteresting, never. She had done nothing wrong. She had proud vulnerability … and there is a certain music industry hatred for singers who don’t ‘fit in’ and they are never praised until death - when, finally, they can’t answer back. 
    The cruel playpen of fame gushes with praise for Sinead today … with the usual moronic labels of “icon” and “legend”. You praise her now ONLY because it is too late. You hadn’t the guts to support her when she was alive and she was looking for you. 
    The press will label artists as pests because of what they withhold … and they would call Sinead sad, fat, shocking, insane … oh but not today! Music CEOs who had put on their most charming smile as they refused her for their roster are queuing-up to call her a “feminist icon”, and 15 minute celebrities and goblins from hell and record labels of artificially aroused diversity are squeezing onto Twitter to twitter their jibber-jabber … when it was YOU who talked Sinead into giving up … because she refused to be labelled, and she was degraded, as those few who move the world are always degraded. 
    Why is ANYBODY surprised that Sinead O’Connor is dead? Who cared enough to save Judy Garland, Whitney Houston, Amy Winehouse, Marilyn Monroe, Billie Holiday? Where do you go when death can be the best outcome? Was this music madness worth Sinead’s life? No, it wasn’t. She was a challenge, and she couldn’t be boxed-up, and she had the courage to speak when everyone else stayed safely silent. She was harassed simply for being herself. Her eyes finally closed in search of a soul she could call her own. 
    As always, the lamestreamers miss the ringing point, and with locked jaws they return to the insultingly stupid “icon” and “legend” when last week words far more cruel and dismissive would have done. Tomorrow the fawning fops flip back to their online shitposts and their cosy Cancer Culture and their moral superiority and their obituaries of parroted vomit … all of which will catch you lying on days like today … when Sinead doesn’t need your sterile slop.”

  5. Watching one of the NRL games at the weekend and one team ran a double wedge coupled with an angled run from the centre which left the winger with a walk in.

    One of the summarisers (Michael Ennis?) pointed it out, talked about the mind set when trying to defend that play, I for one want that type of analysis
