True - although I wasn't implying that either set of fans kicked off for this reason at this particular game. The point I intended making was that the RFL are highly unlikely to boot out Donny for failing to police their ground properly.

Even though its part of their license ?
(I agree though, its highly unlikely for the RFL to do anything too costly against one of its members)

Not surprising really as its in accordance with the rules of abandoned games - by three minutes.

What's rare? The violence, or a the idea of a "full" investigation into something wrong with Rugby League?

Doncaster allowed through to ensure a better gate in next round
Hull play illegal player, Queens fans accused of fighting - nothing to do with the players.
