Banter is banter but leeds take it to the next level beer spewing thugs and thats just the girls.

Troll Fail.

i was sat in north stand upper and was surrounded by warrington, wigan and saints fans and i have to report it was brilliant. banter, a natter at half time and hand shakes at the end.
the lad in the wire away shirt took one hell of a battering though

Presumably then, as a Wire fan, your idea of "banter" is singing about terrorist attacks in London?

See what I did there? I took the actions of a very small handful of fans and turned it into a huge generalisation about all Wire fans. Clever eh?

At least Leeds fans don't attempt to set fire to their own shirts after a defeat.

Yes all Leeds football fans fight and when they turn up to the rugby league they obviously all fight...........no sweeping generalisation there at all

Sadly bell-ends turn up at all sports..........if caught name and shame them and ban them from every RL ground in the country.

No. Leeds fans just leave them behind on wembley way

Keep your challenge cup and we'll keep our championship thanks.

Either way there were idiots from within both sets of fans............as ever

At a GF youve just got to hope you don't end up stuck sat near a set of beered up knobs........more needs to be done about refusing drunken fans admission into the ground.

You're an idiot, run along and play somewhere else or start thinking of a new user name.

We had a really bad experience in the Leeds end in 2007 where someone vomited all over us and several others. We were sat in RFL seats this year. Paying more than we wanted to but was well worth it. Sat with wire Leeds, saints hull hullKr and cas shirts.
It was a brilliant atmosphere predominantly because we were all adults. Yes there was banter but people who were drinking were doing so responsibly and it was a great occasion

Like any sporting event there's a xriss section of society. If 1 person in 1000 is a bell end. Youre still going to get about 70 at old trafford on GF night.

One mans banter is another mans abuse. I personally tend to not bother getting involved with toing and froing as people as less able to take banter the more they drink. And at 6pm on a saturday, theres a lot of time to be drinking.

Depends what people go for. If they want to go for the occassion then having a few drinks is all part of the day, but if you want to really enjoy the game itself then you'll do it better if you don't bother.

What's banter for a couple of groups whove had a few beers might be quite intimidating for a family nearby.

I started drinking at 11am and finished at 12 midnight, so obviously had quite a few...HOWEVER.....I can handle it and know when enough is enough, unlike some. The RFL won't ban drinking at games because of the revenue it generates. Personally I can take it or leave it, but if it avoids trouble i'd be happy for them to ban alcohol at games and be more stringent when it comes to people who are already drunk being allowed in.
