He was actually a Halifax Town fan that jumped on the eighties bandwagon of success. The man was a total idiot.

I didn't need to go to the game to get abuse from Fev fans!! Just come on here and read the comments I'm a Fax fan and also a lady never been on Jeremy Kyle though!!

This is all very tiresome and boring now. Look, we know featherstone have some Louts and Idiots as do most clubs, some more than others, The Fev fans are very vocal indeed which can add to people feeling intimitaded, at the end of the day its how each person perceives it. Lets not keep banging on about it time and time again, thread after thread.

If you dont want to go then dont go, we dont need to go on about it days afterwards, It is not helping Fev and they did try and do something about the coach problems and the pesky retards with golf balls as ammunition.

I didn't go, i had darts to go to. I still wouldn't have gone though but thats up to me and i dont really need to bleat to the world about it. We need to come together once more as a rugby community, After all we are both west yorkshire teams, Each team never knows when they might need the help of the others, We have done in the past and might need to in the future, you just never know.

Can we start talking about rugby rather than fans of other teams.

Well done halifax on the bonus point, against fev its a cracking result and hopefully a turning point in the season.

Well played Fax..A great result...Pity we couldn't finish them off when we had them on the rack..
I for one won't be going there again though...Good luck to em in the NRC QF...I guess the attendance for that one might be less than 1000,because I know we will have a lot less at that one...
Well said Fax Machine you're certainly on the money...I avoid folk who just want a fight...

Fax 4 life i am a fax fan yes, not a fev troll as you put it

. I was simply saying i personally havnt come across these incidents that keep happening at fev games. I was saying every team has these idiots that want to cause bother, maybe fev have got more than others i dont know i was just reporting my findings from attending all our games against them in the past few seasons that i havnt had a bad experience.

Why then do you not accept that others are just reporting their findings as well, instead of saying that what everyone else is saying is Garbage. Everything I have put is exactly reporting my findings....... I will not be put off going to Featherstone, but my experience this time was worse than my previous times.. That is all that was reported.

Fev have a problem (END OF) and is one of the major reasons allegedly why their Chairman has quit the club. 1300 for a game of this stature (i.e. Fev doing well and Fax one of the best supported away teams) is awful. I didn’t go to this game, neither will I the NRC Semi because Fev were disgraceful at the shay this season.

Absolute cobblers! Have you actually spoken with Mark, or even to those close to him???

I know why Mark is no longer at the club! Your post is wholly inaccurate!

Maybe you are correct.


But your (and others) singularly bias recorsding and failure to accept that what was seen and heard from Fax fans was any different to that by fev fans on our visit to Fax earlier this season is one of the reasons I will NOT be visiting Fax again.

I'm 50 and have NEVER abused or assaulted anyone and chose to support Fax when they were in times of need. No more. I'm sure Fax will manage without my 20 quid or so. Sod it. Others may or may not choose to follow a similar stance.
You have your opinion and have chosen to exercise your right to visit Fev or not.
I believe it's time for me to do the same and refrain from visiting Fax.

I think you will find the crowd figure is re published in the next day or 2, there was many more than that there, the chairman did not pack in because of the reason you state. Fax have some of the most antagonising bunch of little shiiiiites that i have ever encountered, but it would never stop me going to a game. Fev fans sing anything and its intimidating, with Fax its banter even if there singing the same songs. The other year when we played at the shay there was a thread with many of you moaning about the chavs that would gather in the stand hurl abuse and throw things at other fans.seems to be forgotten by many on here

Good grief man. Dont you go boycotting stadiums.

I too am in my 50's and have never assaulted or abused anyone, so there we are similar. I was at the Shay for the game and from the East stand I didnt hear any of what you say was said by fax fans, but I accept that it was said because you said you heard it.

I have only ever reported what I see or hear and my perceptions of the overall experience at Post Office Road this last weekend, but I have said, on the other form, that I agree it is time for the two clubs to put a line behind what has gone on and get on with supporting their respective clubs.

I do understand that it is all about choice and choose to follow my team wherever they may be playing, you absolutely have the right to choose to stay away, but I doubt it will solve anything.

I will be at post office road for the semi-final, and who knows we may even be playing each other come the end of the season (fingers crossed).

Ive been banging on about this for ages but the two clubs should have been working together to do something about this problem. One idea would be to sell tshirts promoting the game as a family sport and that violence by fans will not be tollerated. We may follow different teams but in the big picture the true fans are on the same team. The clubs missed a big opportunity i fell.
