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. |

Don't know if this is true but a youtube video has allegedly been taken down and handed to the police. Makes the offence even worse IMO if they posted the attack on the internet.

It's disgusting and sick if it is true. You're right, makes it alot worse if they have, shows they have no remorse. |

Was this a long time after the match had finished ?
Surely someone could ID who did this , Highly unlikely the attacker was travelling alone.

You are quite right Hull Kingston Australian...sorry... BRONCO.
I would genuinely like to apologise for that remark. It was insensitive, uncaring and very poorly thought out.
It couldnt possibly have been a quins fan.
They don't have any. |
