Hang on let me get this right, a Leeds fan got excited to got chinned for it. Well that sounds just tickerty boo does that. Here's an idea, point him out to a steward and have them removed. If you were involved in the altercation regardless of motive you deserved to be banned.

If I was to use your same motivation for blind violence then after a majority of Bradford tries I should have attacked Bullman as on many occasions he ran from the half way line to goad in the direction of the Leeds travelling support behind the sticks.

For me anyone who cannot use the correct channels of security measures deserves to be banned outright. Retaliation is not legal and a brawl doesn't sound like self defence

Pathetic....thats all I have on this one!

If that is all you had, you would have been better off not posting at all.

The stewards were pathetic, after the game I was playing rugby outside the touchdown with a few family members and we *ahem* 'listened' in on the stewards conversation and the lead steward said; 'Todays performance was very poor, there was a fightand it took you 10 minutes to respond thats disgraceful, some stood there and watched and soe shrugged their shoulders, absolutly unacceptable.' She was tearing into them.

Oh look who is here! The mighty mystic eddie!

I was actually refering to the poor stewarding that seems to escalate situations!- idiot!

I came on here to put an end to rumours of the fight in as unbiased a way as possible. Not one point did i say i was innocent and can go on record and say that the initial fight was not caused by me or anyone in my family. The fight started when a random bradford fan threw a punch which created a scuffle. I didnt even hit anyone in the fight but i came on here to stress why fighting in rugby league is wrong as it is a exemplary sport in the sense of excellent crowd behaviour. I came on here to apologise to anyone caught in the crossfire and dispel needless rumours.

Give the guy a break, he's come on and admitted he was wrong. Yes fighting is wrong, but if the incident went down as he said it did and if somebody belted somebody in my family then I would have got involved too. I'm gonna give the guy credit for two things, firstly for manning up and admitting his part and possibly facing the consequences of his actions and secondly for sticking up for his own.

so a Leeds fan was punched for celebrating, correct?

No that isnt what happened and it is speculation like that which creates more problems.

So a Leeds "fan", "taunted" Bulls fans which resulted in Bulls fans punching the Leeds fan?

the leeds fan in question was taunting bulls fans which i said to his mother or the older woman he was with that he cant do that as it creates tension and if he wants to act like that then stand with the leeds fans. The woman reacted angrily to my comment and told me to off and insulted my family including my little cousins and older grandparent. The leeds fan then started to point and shout while being constrained by his father or something like that and a part which i didnt see where a bulls fan threw a punch which was broken up. While the leeds fan walked off he came back down and threw another punch at someone from behind which a member of my family took offence to. It was then and only then that a few member s of security tried to break up the brawl.

No, I think he was punched for being a d!kc. But still no justification.
