If it IS a featherstone 'fan' I doubt it would be a true supporter. More likely to be a bandwagon 'day out for the final' fan who has had too much to drink.
Terribly incident and not a true reflection of the RL spirit.
Best wishes to the Fax fan, hope he makes a full and swift recovery.

Suprised this hasnt come up sooner.
As I said on the fire thread, we dont need it in Rugby League.
If people want to fight get them in a boxing ring and see how long they last.

Don't think it is a black day for RL. This is a society issue IMO. Truth is if you get a lot of people in a confined space and the add drink to the mix there is always the potential for trouble. Just look at any town centre on a saturday night. What amazes me is how rarely this happens in our game.
I'm not trying to excuse it or trivialise it but all things are relative. Lets hope the fan recovers and the offenders are caught. Lets not be to harsh on our game based on a sadly fairly common every day event.

I heard about this the day after the final but didn't want to come on blaming anyone without knowing how true the incident was as there were a few people saying it was 'fax fans joking around and it was an accident. If it is as the police says it is a disgrace and a shame to the lad, get well soon.

half an hour for the emergency services to arrive???? the ground is about a mile from the A&E at Warrington General! And surely there were emergency services at the game anyway?

I have known Dave and his parents about 20 years. I spoke to his dad yesterday.He said that he is in a coma, but they will look to try and wake him over the weekend.Due to the serious nature of his injuries waking him will be a delicate procedure. Its too early to say how bad he is as they can only run tests when he is ot of coma and the body responds or not.
The family do not want to make a big thing abouz what happened.They wish to thank everybody for the kind wishes,words and thoughts.They also ask that people do not think bad of Featherstone or the fans.A couple of idiots does not mean everybody was like that on Sunday.

A very sad story.
I hope he makes a full recovery. |

Can you describe them? May be worth contacting the police (see link above) if you can. |
