Kind of answers the question in the title of the thread doesn't it?

Does baffle me when people come on here (Leeds fan included too) after their team has lost and start a thread questioning the behaviour of a set of fans when we all know it's a minority of idiots that probably no nothing about RL apart from 'my team is great, your team is rubbish' that cause the trouble, especially at the Finals that attract a lot of 1 game a season 'supporters'. Not condoning it, it's dead wrong but not sure what its aim is on these forums and also unfortunately some people can't handle alcohol and sport (some don't even need the alcohol part) and they'd still be an idiot regardless of what team they 'supported' or wherever they came from along the M62. Decent RL fans are still able to mingle with one another better than most other sport, especially football.

Of course we are not all like that,and you know we are not

I remember in the challenge cup at Headingley when we scored the one and only try, me and a lad who posts on here was walking down the ginnel at the back of the ground, when a lad with other wigan fans came out of nowhere and smacked him and ran away down the alleyway.

What about people on the bus yesterday shouting obscenities and spitting out of the coach windows and then showing there bare ar5se cheek to half of west yorkshire?


From experience, if you don't even reply to anyone, and completely ignore it. "trying to debate" with some mindless idiots is pointless. People blame society and the beer etc, but I'm sure it's not changed that much over the years.

What a great day yesterday

It's part and parcel of watching RL. As we were walking out we passed a few coaches bound for Pieland and several Bog Brushers were showing their disdain of us Leeds fans.

I blew them kisses which, for some unknown reason, seemed to aggravate them further.

Bless.

On the road out past the gas club, i decided, in my slightly inhebriated yet very happy demeanour to skip up the road whilst clapping each coach one by one and waving. I can only think this wasnt appreciated by the passengers as much as it was by the fans walking with me.

Im such a scamp!

Surely I can't be the only RL fan to have noticed you ALWAYS get these kind of moans and whinges off Wigan fans whenever they lose a big game?

You certainly don't get them when they win.

Toy-throwing at it's very worst.

I think the least Mr Hetherington could do is offer you some Challenge Cup Final tickets as a gesture of goodwill.

Although I can appareciate your disgust at what happened to youy i do think the real context should be that knobs don't need a sporting event to confirm the size of their collective gene pool.They display this in any town in UK on many weekend evenings.In this case they merely were more decoratively dressed.
Have a walk around your hometown any Saturday night and it will be there to see for a start.
Like others have mentioned we can all supply a list of poor behaviour from 'other fans'...mine starts with oops some wigan fans at wembley in '94 who at a brave range of all of 10 yards verbally abused a family in an age range of about 8-65+ for "being a bunch of F66666ing %% wasting ya 6666in pension turning up for a ars3333ing" etc etc....all it proved was that if it sounds like a KN**,acts like a KN** then it was indeed..........OR do I mention the LEEDS fan at a Wigan pub who didn't like the way I wore the LEEDS COLOURS....NOW HE was indeed a NORBERT CRANIUM.....
I then had a chat with normal wigan fans......in both cases.....

Like somebody mentioned earlier it seems to be that cup semis and specially wembley will bring the 1-2 game a season/in there lives brigade (im all for new to RL supporters by the way.) Unfortunatley a small minority of these seem to think RL is like football, where they feel the need to abuse opposition fans. Like i said i love it when people come to watch RL for the first time and enjoy it, but if they only want to come to cup semi's/final to get ratted and abuse oposing fans then i would kindly request they not bother.

Oh and as for the OP question. No they aint, met some cracking leeds fans at wembley in 2010 and 2 of them even helped me change my tyre on the car after i realised it was nearly flat when i parked up.

Yes we will see you all at Wembaleee . Two from the Capital City sat in with you lot and supporting you lot . Leeds got all they deserved on Saturday

Ps I wasn't just Leeds fans that were looking for bother we had our fair share as well ...Sorry . No place for that in our game .
