Not sure who you are, but you clearly know me. I feel sorry for all true rugby league fans. I did try to build reconcilitary bridges after the Grand Final. People did not want to know then, they said it was too soon. However, the longer you let things run the harder it becomes and now the feeling between supporters of these two great clubs is even worse. I have had enough, here is my plea to the Featherstone supporters. We have to be insular and control ourselves, hopefully you guys can do something similar.
www.totalrl.com/forums/index.php ... this-club/
I would urge you guys to also promote some self control, concentrate on celebrating the victory and please do not goad Featherstone and its socio economic problems, or compare people to Rain Man. My son just happens to be autistic. Like I have said to Featherstone Supporters, let's all look after what we can control and improve our sport for something that people want to come and watch again.
Same message to Featherstone supporters posting on here or on any forum.
Congratulations on the Victory, I am gutted but it was a great game and I wish you well in the final. Who knows I may be there to see it because I already have a hotel booked

| I didn't see the trouble but I did see 3 police cars speeding to the match. I seem to remember some fax fans responding to the extra police and efforts by fev to segregate the fans as more evidence of fev 'thuggery'. Maybe that Is why the club didn't do it again? I don't know. I'm personally gutted about lat night, a disaster for our club, but we will dust ourselves off and carry on. Good luck in the final both teams deserved it but you had the bit extra on the day.

| So - where do we go from here??
I REFUSE to have this sheeite stop me from engaging with any bug_ger else who likes rugby League! They can bol_lox! This is my sport. This is my enjoyment. I enjoy craic with almost everyone who watches our game.
Those that want to kick off regardless off which teams colours they wear can just (I'll use a different word the the verbage of choice) - SOD OFF!!!

| i just hope that there is evidence to support the prosecution of whoever was involved last night - i feel sad on how the reputation of a family sport is being dragged in the gutter and stopping me from taking my family to matches for safety sake

| I said after the league game don't let a few idiots stop you going to the semi. After what I saw last night even I doubt I'll be going there again. It WAS the worst violence I have seen at a game of rugby. You could see it coming as soon as the whistle blew. As our players were coming towards us I looked to the right as I was behind the posts with not many fax fans to my right. Most were stood to the left of the posts. I clearly saw a huge group of lads and men building up and said something was going to happen.
It was very intimidateing and only a a couple of stewards were there. They DID start it, leatherd a couple of fax fans who then retaliated. I got to the car and onto post office road and it was worse. Only one police van at the time and I personally saw around twenty or thirty of em attack the lads that were behind the posts.
They chased em down the lane and one bald idiot started swinging again. It's a disgrace and the rfl need to act now

| Worst case scenario was a golden point win. I said before the game if by some fluke we win again by golden point expect it to kick off. Was no surprise it did. Soon as the final whistle went they were at it behind us on the terracing, thought I was an extra in This Is England 2.
One of the fev fans "term used loosely" was heard to be saying we'll do the same to you that we did to the other fax fan.
First half they were a few fev fans stood in the fax end and some light banter turned insulting and I did notice a few of them body checking pepole as they walked past.
I'm not surprised some fax fans hit back when faced with the situation I witnessed, what are they supposed to do, stand there and get hit.
Also in a way I'm glad lats night happaned (as long as no serious injuries occured) as it just confirms and justifies what we all thought and knew.

Like all good alcoholics, you're in denial and you're never going to understand the issues until you realize that your club has a hooligan problem. Sticking your fingers in your ears and going "la la la la la" is not helping your cause on here pal.
Your club needs to liaise with the police, the stewards and the RFL to start trying to work out a solution.'"
The only people arrested last night by West Yorkshire police were wearing Fax tops, you may not like it and can abuse the messenger by that is the facts

Of course Gingbong, you was there personally to witness every single arrest?
Why dont you take your earlier advice and wait to see what comes out of the arrests / convictions. To keep posting on this issue is only adding fuel to an already raging fire, but then again you cant do it on your own forum, so you come on here to wind us up.
Well its not going to work. I believe the problem to be between a set of Fev fans and a set of Fax fans, who have had to much of the falling down juice.
Lets wait and see, theres a good boy.

| I came to game straight from work. I changed outside the ground before kick off. I was so concerned while sat in my car that I removed my fax shirt and put my work shirt back on. No way to be. It was an unreal sight sat there on the corner of the main road watching six police cars pile in and group after group, 'women' too, if that's what you'd call em, taunting and abusing anyone in a fax shirt. As for the lads that got jumped, they were walking wounded with blood on their shirts but at least they were walking. And YES they were walking AWAY when chased

| Or maybe of course i, like dozens of other fax fans are just lying and causing trouble.
Some Fev fans need to wake up and smell the coffee. I saw what happened, as did the fax fans in the car in front. Good thinking from the passenger, he got pictures on his phone and showed the police.
If therefore only fax fans got arrested, I'm moving to Libya, maybe we will get more fairly treated there. I am annoyed and upset by last night

But surely you put two and two together and make a couple of dozen.
Your advice earlier was to wait and see what comes out of it, I suggest you take your own advice.
What you have to realise is that not everyone in halifax thinks every fev fan is scum.
