IanMac Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 The words used by, I believe, a Whitehaven fan describing towns tweet of congratulations to haven on winning yesterday. “ The other rather less so, sadly” The words used by the same person on havens tasteless tweet having a go at Leon. I think this sums up the difference between the two clubs. Yes you celebrate victory but retain the virtues of respect and sportsmanship. You accept defeat with dignity. In the aftermath of yesterday’s game one club upheld those virtues one didn’t. I know which one I’d rather be supporting. Congratulations to haven on the win, a script writer couldn’t have come up with that ending considering what had happened at the rec. To the town lads and staff hold your heads high, our opportunity for revenge will come but in that moment of victory don’t lose your sportsmanship, and respect.

notasdaftasilook Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 And well done Leon actually. He gets it off the haven fans but keeps his dignity. When he blocks them off his twitter they see it as a victory. The last few weeks seem to have been forgotten now they’ve bummed a few quid.

notasdaftasilook Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Marrafan. Your club has no class. Some (not all ) of your players have no class. Your coach has no class when he retweets and likes on twitter. Your fans goad Leon till he blocks them then gloats that he’s blocked them. Childish. Your BOD has no class because they do the same.

Marrafan Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 So your coach and chairman running round high fiving everyone at Whitehaven then sulking and not even speaking to his opposite number in either game is classy and humble is it? Your club voting against allowing Whitehaven in the league was sporting was it? Stop being so sanctimonious. There’s plenty of times your club has been far from humble or classy. Six of one, half a dozen of the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havenfan13 Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 All the gloating was started by town fans winding foz up and when he reacts you don’t like it then Try to turn the tables on whitehaven the club itself we have just won a very good derby for God’s sake of course we are overreacting but to say about being classy and unprofessional is ludacrus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notasdaftasilook Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 I’m talking about social media daft lad. The way that a club conducts itself to the outside world in front of sponsors and fans. Why do you think your sponsors experience is held in the boardroom cupboard? Why do you think you can’t get main sponsors?Why do you think outside of the due hards your fan base is reducing? Shocking club marra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gillmeister Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 I’m sure Leon is at home now with his super league winners ring challenge cup winners trophies and GB and England caps gutted that Andrew from Woodhouse who still has a Whitehaven shirt with Muliumu on the Back is all over twitter using hashtag pryceless and Les incompetents who couldn’t run a bath could at least find a tweet that makes up for there lack of business acumen wondering if we can still finish third so he can match the impressive coaching career of Foster Forget Chuck and Chad I am the real legend killer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Six of one, half a dozen of the other. In this instance, whatever you may say or drag up from the archives, sorry wasn’t alive when we voted against letting Whitehaven in the league, your club have let themselves down on social media. Both clubs have an obligation to uphold the virtues of the game and to try and encourage the younger generation to become involved and participate. Whether that is done by posting mocking tweets who knows, your club are obviously quite happy to do it. I am happier with the way town seem to use it and hopefully it will pay dividends in the long term. Congrats again on the win hope your hangover wasn’t too bad this morning.
