Charming lad behind us repeatedly wished for ref to rejoin army so he could go back to afghanistan and get shot again!. when fighting occured they were generally cheering it on as if it was just part of entertainment. Came across as a bunch of inbred hillbillies and glad 'gone back to their pit village. Cant say its going to be a away fixture i'll be attending.


You completely forget to mention that a Bradford fan thought it was ok to punch a 15 year old girl and then boot her auntie.


That’s what the fighting was about. I know the girl I coach her at rugby. My daughter has spoken to her tonight. This guy called her fat then swung a punch at her. Her auntie obviously had a go at him for it and he booted her.

I don’t know why it happened but I can’t think of any acceptable reason for a girl to go watch a game of RL and get punched by a man.

Did you actually think Fev fans would just stand and let this happen

Absolutely disgraceful yet you call us hillbillies and say you won’t attend our ground.

I love how the Fev fans are trying to create a different story to what happened.

This 15 year old girl was giving abuse to every Bulls fan, some very vile comments, when she couldn't handle the verbal response from the Bulls fans, the girls dad headbutted a Bulls fan.

Sounds like the minority of idiots Fev seem to have always had in their following are still around. It must be hereditary.

Amazing how there are different stories depending on which Fev fan you speak too. Yet there’s only one coming from the Bulls side. We had a few idiotic Fev fans in front of us (left of the post) who saw a bit of commotion in the middle and immediatley went over to try cause more trouble.

Anyway, good win. Much needed. Some poor mistakes led to their tries which I don’t think would have been on hard ground. However we have to play the conditions better. Thought the halves were smart throughout the game and the forwards just never stopped despite being down to 3 props. Was very impressed with Hitchcox, how on earth he made two breaks with that pace in those conditions amazes me!

I think Hitchcox was a bit patchy really. One of the breaks came when Lilley’s pass went to nobody and the defence was wrong footed. That said he did really well to make the break but if he’d shown a bit more composure we would have scored if he’d drawn the fullback and put Minchella in on his right. Instead he threw a long ball to Flanagan on his left who was covered.

He made a right mess of clearing the kick that led to Briscoe’s try too. It just needed hacking away.

Despite the blooper he didn’t hide and will be a real asset on a firmer pitch.

I was surprised how we stayed in it given we only had three bona fide props on the field. At times we struggled to get on the front foot in the first half. Anyone else a bit puzzled by our use of subs? Flanagan didn’t come on until the second half and I’m not sure Oakes would’ve got on at all had it not been for Webster’s concussion.

Every single one of the half dozen fans (from both clubs) involved in the scuffle should be given life bans. There is an element of nastiness creeping into RL games (looks like a minority of Wakey fans have been naughty again) we need to take a stand as a sport.

Some clubs have always had a minority of idiots - it goes back to when I was a kid in the 80s and is nothing new. If you read the history books it goes right back to when the game began. It seems to me that they're just more visible when we have smaller crowds. We seem to lose the casual supporters but the real headcases stay around.

Looking at our stewards I'm not that convinced they'd be much use if it really kicked off but with austerity you're never going to get a police presence in a rugby ground unless it was a really big game.

I recall one vexed up bloke yesterday effing and blinding while peeing into a sink in the gents yesterday before kick off when there were ample toilets available he could've used – are toilets not yet a thing in Fev?

As soon as i saw how the fans were congregated about 15 mins before kick off i knew there was going to be trouble. I purposly stood as close to the score board and away fron the middle as possible.
Sadly i was right

Fev fans pre game in the top house banging on about how they had all been on the beer since 11am, some of them could barely stand up . A the bulls fans correctly shouted. They are the scum of rugby league.

On a side note did anyone else think there was a lack of stewards. Numerous fans from both sides should have been thrown out
