| Quote: nottinghamtiger "Time for the Warrington club to have a bit of a crackdown.
Identity as many culprits as they can and issue some lifetime bans.
Do Warrington use photos on season tickets? If so, it should be pretty easy to identify some of them; if they are willing to spend a small fortune going to Catalans the likelihood is that some of them will be ST holders.
Then at the next few away games, have someone in official Warrington gear stood facing the supporters with a camera-phone, filming the crowd so future trouble-makers can be identified and banned too. Pass the footage to the police if anything violent happens.
It will be a very small number of people and they’ll soon behave when they realise they will be caught in the act on film.'"
None of those measures will stop the evil James Child who masterminded the carnage unleashed upon the innocent Wire fans.

"We have never witnessed such incidents in 13 years in the Super League. We are now waiting for the CCTV footage before making any decision.”
Likewise Warrington, who can now only finish second after their defeat confirmed St Helens' position as League Leaders' Shield winners, expressed their shock.
A club statement read: "Warrington Wolves are deeply disappointed with the incidents at the conclusion of tonight’s fixture at the Stade Gilbert Brutus.
"The club is working in conjunction with Catalans Dragons and Super League to gather further information, and determine the appropriate action required.
"The club does not condone this behaviour & strongly believes that scenes like this have no place in our sport.
"We sincerely believe that this behaviour does not reflect the vast majority of our loyal & supportive fanbase following the team in France this weekend."
A joint statement from the Rugby Football League and Super League echoed the condemnation.
It read: "The scenes are alien to Super League and have no place in our game. We will be taking firm action to make it clear this behaviour is totally unacceptable."
Catalans boss Steve McNamara dismissed criticism of his side's tactics, accused by opposite number Steve Price of frustrating the game, but was also left lamenting how referee Child took charge.
He said: "I'm clearly not happy with the whole of the game in terms of how it was managed. After the game I will take that up with the relevant people."

| What does that Edwards have to do to get sent off? Hi behaviour when the trouble started in the crowd was disgusting.
What are the rules about ending the game? With the clock finished and the game gone I would have thought it would be sensible to put the brawl on report and get everyone off the pitch. Remove further flash points and let the stadium officials sort the idiots out in the stand.

| When Catalan first got bum rushed into Super League, I asked a past CEO why they where not on Sky that often? His reply was they have too much crowd trouble and dont want it to be aired!

| I'm not sure what caused the violence to begin.
But if you joined in, it doesn't matter. You are responsible for your own behaviour. If you decide to join in a brawl, you accept the consequences that befall you.
It's no one else's fault that you did what you did. Not the referee. Not the person that threw something near you. Not the violence in the pitch. Catalan or Warrington.
Get them identified. Get them named. Get them shamed. Get them banned.

12 months ago the Warrington fans were also at Bolton, wearing catalan colours and waving catalan flags and trying to wind up saints fans.'"
What a stupid post. Every non-saints fan in that ground was cheering for them, it wasn’t some Wire conspiracy. You’ll find most Wire fans would’ve had our colours on since we were playing after you, or are you saying we all took other shirts to change into? Get over your own club, everyone wanted you to lose, and you did.

Again completely missing the point. Seems to be a condition for wire fans.
Psychedelic Casual claimed that saints fans came this year to wind up wire fans. I was making the point that you did the same the previous year.
Blinkered view does not seem to describe wire at the moment.

| I'm disappointed in the coaches too really. To see all that, and complain about the referee. Its embarrassing. James Child shouldnt have to deal with all that, and did the best he could. And then we wonder why we have no referees. And to echo Wellsy and what I've said earlier, even if something was thrown from the Catalan end first, you dont have to try and jump into the VIP section and throw punches. You can just walk away. No one was innocent in all that

Yep. They also did this in 2007 just because Catalan were playing Wigan. They even went on local TV news to brag about it. Weird set of people.

100% right.
No excuses, there needs to be something done here (and anywhere else that violence within the grounds occurs.
Every club has some idiots and they are not wanted or needed by ANY club but, this was on a whole new level.
Identify them, ban them and fin them.
With the amount of mobile pictures/footage that will be around, hopefully it shouldn't take too long
If Warrington are serious about this they should have a "rogues gallery" on their website/social media with the culprits pictures on there.
