Quote: leedsnsouths "The word 'chav' is far more offensive to me than anything you will hear fans sing at a RL game. You are basically disregarding a whole section of society based on their background.

And obviously when I say I hate wigan I am talking in sporting terms, again if you can't separate that from hating say war or organised crime, then it is you who has the mental problem my friend.'"


Not me with any mental issues. I am not the one trying to justify the context of my words.

There is a pretty big crossover of Rhinos and United fans, so really just stealing from ourselves, and if Old Trafford is in Manchester then Headingly Stadium is in Leeds (it is a Leeds postcode and you can easily walk into the centre of town, in fact it is probably not much further from LS1 than Elland Road)

As for the brass band, I understand the criticism and it isn't needed in the big games imo, but can help keep some atmosphere in boring games against teams we don't care about

So if Headingley in Leeds you don't get much less Leeds than LS6 and what about all the other suburbs that your kin will have been round tatting in hull caravans ?

Quote: leedsnsouths "Pretty much the point I was making, unfortunately some people can't distinguish between throwing things at players and singing about them.'"


You’re so wrong on the ‘throwing’ incidents it’s untrue. I probably had the best view in the ground. I was about 5 yards up from the front wall on the Western Terrace slap bang in the middle of the posts. A number of small sponge Rugby Balls has been given out to fans around the ground. At kick off the Leeds fans threw them at our players and in the second half our fans threw them at yours. It was all friendly banter with players smiling and the Stewards not batting an eyelid (but then again they didn’t bother with the streaker either).

If you want the absolute truth, far more of these balls were thrown at our players pre kick off then at yours in the second half but I think that’s because our own fans were also throwing them at our players. As I say purely just people having a laugh and no harm done.

I can’t comment on the post match abuse other then to say I heard Wane saying he’d had numerous threats from Leeds fans saying they’d fill him in post game. He seemed to quite enjoy it but if that’s sort of stuff is being thrown about and a couple of the younger lads responded then it’s not overly surprising. They should have the sense to rise above the morons but said morons shouldn’t get upset when they get a few verbals back.

Quote: leedsnsouths "What I did definitely see is Wigan fans throwing things at Leeds players during a game, something that I have yet to see any Wigan fan admit is absolutely disgraceful. If there is no retrospective action either to the individuals or to the Wigan club, it sets a very dangerous precedent.

I did not see Leeds fans trowing things (feel free to prove me wrong), they were calling Wigan players divers and cheats at the end, but nothing worth writing home about, if any Leeds fans did throw things at players they should be banned for life from Headingly.

Fans shout things at opposition players all the time, its part of what makes the great tribal atmosphere you can get in RL games and I have no problem at all with Wigan fans shouting things at Leeds players, it is expected.

What is not expected is for players so shout things back or scream in fans faces. SO'L and Leuluai showed their sportsmanship and class by how they acted when being escorted to the dressing room, a few of your other players should try following their example.

EDIT
Ah! Doing the old Arsene Wenger: "I didn't see that so I can't comment!" Yet you want Wigan fans to apologize for something that perhaps they didn't see? You're a real walking contradiction, aren't you? I'll ask again, given that it's been reported from many quarters, including the Wigan coach, that there was abuse (that wasn't just verbal by all accounts) by the Leeds fans and abuse from at least one Leeds player towards the Wigan fans, are you prepared to label Leeds as scum?

By the way, why is it that the Wigan players needed escorting from the field? Surely they couldn't have been in any danger? You're all such paragons of virtue, aren't you?

For what it's worth I will definitely condemn any throwing of objects by Wigan fans... even if they were the foam balls. Not because it's dangerous but because it's childish. A little like your original post, in fact.

Your escorted off because they block a route out of the ground for players and staff. Quicker you get off the pitch the quicker they can open it up.

Quote: Rogues Gallery "btw It was the Leeds club who provided those small plastic rugby balls.'"


Are you sure it was the Leeds Club? I say this because last year my wife's company hosted a half time event and they requested giving out sponge rugby balls. They were told no due to the risk of them been thrown on the pitch. Very surprising if it is the case the club allowed it and did it themselves.

Clearing,

With respect sir, Kingston upon Hull are the 2018 City of Culture, pretty much shows our standing in the new Millenia.

I can assure you that Old Trafford is not in Manchester, at the same time saying Headingly is not in Leeds is like saying Anfield is not in Liverpool.


As for the little rugby balls if Leeds didn't organise handing them out then who did?

Trolls have finally realized we don't bite at ' Marching on together is a LUFC song 'and ' The WT is a dump ' now they show their utter stupidity that Headingley is not in Leeds . Its like sayin anything past New Briggate ,Leeds Bridge, West gate and past Civic Hall is not Leeds .Not that they have heard of these areas
