There should be areas in the ground reserved for the fancy dress wearing, alcopop swilling, go to one game a year groups that usually get on everyone's tits.

Then at least we'd know where to avoid.

When the bulls played at Headingley last year, I was that embarrassed by some bulls fans swearing as loud as they could,with no respect as to who could hear them,I told them to shut and was in the mood to give one of them a crack if he didn't shut up, and no I'm not a hooligan who wants to have a fight at a rugby match

Headingley is always the worst of our away games for that. Some Bulls fans treat it as a reason for a full day beer session. Which means you get exactly the same issues as have been mentioned about the big games.

And I agree, it's embarrassing. There was a large group of young lads attaching themselves to the Fat Dogs group (don't think they were regulars at home games with them) who were particularly bad.

Every club has this minority of people. Every game we have against Leeds I always seem to see poor behaviour that is accustom to football. I noticed on Saturday that whilst the Bulls conga line made it's way through the Leeds supporters there was one young man who was gesturing and swearing in peoples faces as they walked by him. He was asked to sort himself out sharpish by the stewards.

I try not to let the minority ruin the game for me although I can see why people avoid the derby games.

He said the Leeds fans were really nice. Marching on together.....

The problem is that too many people within the RL fraternity have a "holier than thou" attitude. Far too often we hear people putting the blame on the Football fans of respective cities causing the problems because RL fans would never behave in such a manner.

Wrong.

Weekends away like the Magic weekend where you have groups of people, more often than not fuelled by alcohol and (in this case) an unlikely smattering of too much sun, can lead to people behaving in all manner of ways, most of which can leave a nasty taste in the mouths of right minded decent folks.

Things like this should not happen, but they unfortunately do and it is creeping more and more into the game.

A couple of weeks back I had the misfortune of being at the Wigan v Saint Good Friday game. These Wigan in-breds cursed and abused all game - and from the majority of their songs it was clear that they were NOT football fans. (I always wonder why if they hate them so much that they always seem to want to f*** the Latics? )

There will always, sadly, be idiots who want to spoil it for the rest. Shame they cannot be identified and publicly named and shamed.

Thank you to everyone that has replied to me and sorry for the delay, just finished work.

The good thing about the whole situation is that my daughter was oblivious to the comments made as she was running back to her seat at the time.

If she had heard them it could quite possibly of put her off coming again so I'm grateful of that at leased.

Never the less the overall experience was incredible, in contrast I witnessed a Wigan supporter stopped in his tracks on the way back to his car by a Catalan fan who congratulated him on a magnificent victory by his team, then the next thing they both swapped shirts shook hands and went on their separate ways.

Ive seen players do this in big games like the wcc but never spectators...!

In reference to the conga mentioned ealier I witnessed a teenager pulled from his seat to take part but clearly didn't want to. The lad was really quite embarrassed walking back to his seat.

I completely understand that they are a very small percentage of our loyal fan base and not true Bulls Fans.

I also have to agree there should be a way to naming and shaming repeat offenders just like they do in other sports? And maybe they will think twice before they turn aggressive.

Agree with Eddie on this one. Though I'm not sure you can actually shame these people as they seem quite proud of what they've done when you hearing them bragging after the game.

I think I need a wee lie down.

The level of hostility at football games is generally much greater than RL, but football has generally improved over the last couple of decades (from an incredibly low base). RL does seem to be going the other way.
