There definitely certain clubs that bring out this sort of reaction in us all.
Leeds seem to attract this more than most over the whole of SL.
I used to think Wigan were the Manly of SL, maybe not!
I hate Manly as well...It's Cherry-Evans. I physically can't stand him.... I agree but I don't really know why!

Those of us of a certain age remember the disgraceful treatment handed out to Colin Dixon in the mid 1970s. I have hated them ever since. The tragedy coloured alot of attitudes and I've even heard some say it quite recently. They were barely old enough to remember Joel Moon but they still managed to bring up Mick Shoebottom.

And the parade round the ground of Mick Shoebottom, himself not a choirboy In those days there were very few choirboys of any kind roaming the paddock.

Because of what happened to him I was being v generous…he was a bit off the scale at times…but although he never played again he did make a virtually full recovery

We need our fans to turn out on force on Saturday and create noise, our squad is strong bar Jack O everyone is fit. Leeds only have 3 recognized Props named Eseh back to Wigan and Sangaree back from injury. Now is a great time to play them, we need to kick high to Miller and give Croft nothing. There pack is poor, we win the forward battle we win the game.

Yeah that's another reason, not that we needed more !
Anyway, it wouldn't be a proper prejudice, if it was based on sound evidence and reasoned argument!

I was there that day Colin stood signing autographes for Leeds youngsters while being spat at by their parents. I was there too. It was scary. Never known such vitriol aimed at one person on a rugby field.

I’ll not give the game away but brilliant wordsmanship there, Russ!

It's odd how many must win games there are in each season, I think simply winning more than you lose is the first and most important goal.
SRD can win against any side if they're on their A game, and I'm pretty sure we've lost a few this season simply because we weren't!

I’m sure we’ve lost a few games because of squad size and hence tiredness / injuries
