Hope someone complained to the 4th official and the Head Steward about the incident. When we played our M627 neighbours a few weeks ago, one of their players gave a fingered salute to our fans. Surprisingly, no one in authority in Spottyland saw anything (Stewards, CCTV Operator etc) so their player got away with it.
Jiggy my friend clearly specsavers was closed when you went, his actions showed how much of an idiot he really is, no point complaining as no doubt like Jiggy the officials eyesight is clearly blinkered

I had the ref (Mr Tommason or Tomlinson) give me the two fingers when he walked off the pitch when York played at Cougar Park this year and still the RFL have done nowt about it. This was the same ref who walked off with the York players at half time, laughing and joking.
With that said I did not make it to the match today but even the radio commentator on Radio York thought the ref made errors.
Sounds like we went to sleep again for 10-15 minutes though so maybe we need to focus on that.
Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.
While we're on the subject of foul and abusive language, your coach, Barry Eaton, shouted a barrage of four letter expetives at the referee at the side of the pitch as the teams were leaving the pitch at half time, right in front of my five year old son, so I would suggest you should maybe leave that subject well alone!
I thought it was a close and well fought game, between two very closely matched teams, but the better team on the day won, as did the better team win when we played you at Cougar Park a few weeks ago. Good luck for the rest of the season.
We started the game well today but bad calls from the ref leading to at least two of their tries changed that first half.I think like you said Andrew discipline is a problem,it's hard but when calls go against us we need to keep focused and keep our discipline.Second half for the first 20mins we had chance after chance to score but was let down by poor passing and handling errors.Game changed after Gavin's fantastic weaving run leading to the try of the match by Lee Maples.Like girl power said players should have aknowledged supporters but well done to Buster and Craig Brown for doing so.What a fine example of a coach you have York.

Way to often in 2nd half we had chances but poor passing let us down. The trie by Mapals was outsanding created by Gavins mesmering break.
A most disappointing aspect of the game was the cougar faithful stayed behind to cheer and applaud the players and bar a couple left the pitch, I understand they may have been frustrated but in my opinion this was poor.
At the final whistle one of the March brothers kicked the ball towards cougar fans and he got the relevant response but as a group of us were walking past their fans and March brother who was no7 was abusive and threatening toward some fans which is unacceptable.
Based on the referees performance I would suggest the meeting York had with the rfl complaining about their treatment clearly worked in their benefit.
Perhaps Barry should do the same but also take a copy of the game today to prove the point.
York only scored a penalty in the 2nd half such was our dominance and credit to the boys for the comeback.
Obviously you had too much of the falling down water that your fans were drinking on the terrace, as for forward passes, how dare you complain,and as for paul march giving you verbal, what a load of tosh, hes not going to be abusive when his own children were at the front of the stand, and thats who he came over too.
Just get over it you lost, same as e did at your place, and yes, the officials were dire.
