One of the main reasons for this appaling behaviour is that the RFL have started giving clubs outside SL at least a number of Cup Final tickets in lieu of their prize money for the competitiion. Invariabley these are the tickets for the top tier and end up getting discounted just to get rid of them. Low and behold the idiots buy them cheap and spend the rest on booze and ruin decent folks' days out.

Let's get back to giving clubs the money they've won and selling tickets at face value, it will pay in the long run.

Pugwash.

We arrived at around 11:00, had a stroll around Wembley way before heading to the pre-game party outside the premier inn and the only thing slightly antisocial we saw were two chavs stumbling about with Fosters boxes on their heads (we're did say later we wondered whether they'd got arrested or a crack off someone lol) so it seems we missed it all luckily

We always make a point of mixing with and chatting to fans of other clubs (what Rugby League is all about) and everyone we spoke to was a credit to the game so lets not judge the majority, the fact is in a crowd of 79 or so thousand you are gonna get a few idiots

Got on really well with some Wire fans on the tube. Credit to their team. Some awful behaviour from Chavs with all colours of shirt on that I saw. Definitely a societal problem. Start by no drinking in the viewing arena. Then go from there.

Can't be any clearer than that.

The thing is we dont really hear about this in the weekly rounds. Wembley finals are massive so naturally the scumbags and dregs of society suddenly pop up grab a ticket and claim to be fans. they've never watched RL in their life most probably. They just want to turn up and assume rugby has the same rivalry as football.

I love going to any town and having banter with the fans, I go near enough every game home and away. Not all your fans though. was having a great time with some of your lot on Wembley way. The future isn't all bleak. We just have to put up with the non descripts that come with finals.

(sorry I'm dragging this thread up again, not been on here since the final and felt like putting my opinion in )

Leigh v Fax 2011 NRC final at Blackpool, how RL should be.
Pubs packed from 10am, all mixed. Great banter, great atmosphere, great session enjoyed by all together.
Post match, Fax lost it with the last play, Fax fans walked around the ground to meet the Leigh fans exiting after celebrating the win to .......................................................... shake hands and congratulate us.

The RL spirit is alive and well, good to see the positive post about Leigh fans in Trafalgar Square and hope you enjoyed your QF win at our place as well.

Scrotes will always be scrotes, RL fans should self police these minority in the old fashioned way.
