| The PA was rubbish at the ground and it would have been easy for people to have not been aware the minutes silence had started, particularly if they'd had a few and were from Hull.

Why do they need to hide their faces?
To be fair, Danny don't have a choice with the inbuilt baseball cap.

How do you come to this conclusion?
arrests? Or just general noise or what? Maybe you dont like the 100s of fans that travel from both Hull teams and make a bit too noise for you as your use to the peace and quiet normally at the Stoop

| Does it really matter which club they were from? The fact is a great player and servant to our game has tragicaly lost his life and we as fans of a great sport should respect that. As a Wigan fan, who was surrounded by Saints and Leeds fans on Saturday night, it was humbling to see them, to a one, stand and pay their respects, you literally could hear a pin drop. These are the people we should mention and applaud, and leave the sad pathetic excuses of human beings to rot.
We as people all make mistakes, some more than others, and there have been players who have committed as bad, if not worse offences, tarnishing the sport we love. Fighting outside nightclubs, beating people up at train stations, breaking into peoples homes, selling dodgy gear on the net, betting on your own team to lose, all committed by top flight rugby league players, yet all too quickly forgotten, and without the same condemnation. I'm not trying to make excuses for Terry, or somehow condone the taking of performance enhancing drugs, but he made a mistake, was caught and took his punishment.
Love him or loathe him, Terry was a great player and his loss is a tragedy to the sport.
Once again, to the thousands from across the game of rugby league, who did pay their respects on Saturday, good on you!
H.

| There's nothing more respectful than bellowing "SHOW SOME RESPECT" in the middle of a minute's silence.

| The minutes silence at Whitehaven for Garry Purdham and the other Cumbrian victims was impeccable.

| I thought the drunks dressed as soldiers were Hull KR fans from the markings some of them had painted on (they were getting pretty rowdy outside Lime before the game), but my Dad was speaking to their coach driver (used to work together), he said he'd picked them up in Leyland, apparently they were a rugby team who'd played a game earlier in the day and were having a lads day out. Don't know if that makes sense to anyone?

FWIW I've always thought Hull FC fans are very well behaved when they visit The Stoop.

They were in lime bar after the game and were fine, it was the loud mouthed Salford rift raff making all the noise in there afterwards

| On the whole I thought it went well. I was in the North Stand Upper Tier where I could hear the incident in the Wigan end and silence in the Saints.
It did get a little silly around where I was sat when some fella shouted "Show some respect" across the stadium and two lads at different times shouted "Shurrup d*ck'ed" in a comedy northern accent and numeorus folk around them had a good chuckle.

I may have to hold my hand up here, apologise to any KR fans who took offence and admit it seems I was wrong. Assuming there was only one gang of lads in army gear, it turns out it was players from Leyland Warriors.
Like many others, I saw them up close in Lime bar before and after the game and from their markings got the impression they were Hull KR fans, I was also told they were by others who spoke to a couple of them. However, one of my team recognised them and told me who they were yesterday, certainly fits in with KF's statement above.
Wonder if they know just how much bother one or two of their lads have caused by being too fcked to realise there's a minute's silence going on, and then arguing about it.
