Speaking as someone who travels 200 miles each way every time I wish to see the Storm 'perform' I think that I have a right to tell the team what I think of their game if they don't try. - and to be honest at the end of last season they didn't bother. You know what - quite a few agreed with me that they sucked, its been a real pleasure to see them doing well this season and hopefully the supporters can become more united. I enjoy my trips to Manchester far more now - But I also enjoy travelling on the coaches as every one is friendly and polite, i have not seen the behaviour described by some fans displayed by regular travellers.
I have never been a Sad B but i do know some of the people who wore the shirts so to speak and on the coaches they were always the same as any supporters i have seen, full of support for a good performance - not much evidence of that last year was there so what do you expect. You can't always be positve about a team that made a habit of pleasing the crowd at home and losing away.
