Last nights crowd was great, apart from a few morons who thought it was funny to start chanting the "F" word. There was also some bottle throughing going on in the south stand, albeit plastic. I think these were coming from some "fans" a couple of rows behind us. There was also some pretty nasty chanting at some widnes fans when we were walking back to the car after the game. I know that it is only a small minority but can we try and find out who they are and ban them from the ground. I for one don't like this type of behaviour at rugby matches and I wouldn'tlike us to get a reputation for this I think we need to encourage opposition fans to come to the Shay not intimidate them in this way. Can we nip it in the bud now!!!!!!

a bit of banter you will never do ought about the swearing its a way of life sorry to say move with the times

Agreed, Bottle Throwing is a different matter though, Didn't see any of this myself though.

Swearing is going to happen whether we like it or not, it doesn't offend me and I do it in the heat of the moment. It didn't bother me when I was a kid up at thrum hall hearing swearing either, certainly didn't put me off wanting to go. Kids hear as much swearing at school as anywhere these days.

Didn't see any bottles being thrown, this is totally unacceptable if this did happen.

the bottle throwing from these same kids is every game now and i along with others i know are very dissapointed in the club appearing to do nothing about it as this has been reported many times

Just having a steward at the back in the middle of the stand would help. I can't understand why this has not happened if it has been reported?
Good crowd though and good noise made too.

Is that individual with the sidies still knocking about?

Once again it has to be said its not the club who run the stadium its a certain stadium manager who works now for CMBC.
Don't hold your breath though!

We need a few stewards who will get these people and throw them out if it happens again.
The club can ask the stadium management to do something and stress its the clubs name that is tarnished if this carries on.
We as fans can speak to these numpties as well.

and i hear you on this as its been heard before but if fans react to this throwing objects and there is crowd trouble do you think the RFL will accept it is nothing to do with the club?

This is as been a problem in the past with the bottle throwing remember it happening against Salford last season which nearly kicked off a riot completly unacseptable

I thought swearing was tolerated?



Big thanks to certain members of the Barmy Army for shouting to the little boys not to swear. Success does indeed bring in extra fans but it does attract fans who think RL is . Why there isn't at least one steward at the back of the stand I don't know. The same people who caused trouble post game Vs Widnes last year were there last night so I'm not surprised events similar happened once more.

We don't want the same reputation as certain RL clubs in terms of stupid fans, the club needs to nip this kind of behaviour in the bud sooner rather than later, otherwise people won't come and watch us as easily as we hope.

Im sure going back a few years (probably SL Era) there were stewards at the top of the steps in the Southstand, and Standing wasn't permitted behind the very back barrier.
