I'm sorry to say this, but the RFL has to REALLY punish the Humberside clubs because some of their fans are giving our great game a very very bad name

I find that whole thing a disaster waiting to happen to be honest. I read them yesterday and cringed to be honest. We are suppose to respect the officials but they respond with such replies, have seen a lot across the board, not involving HKR, and at some point they are going to be taken offence too. Giving a smart response isnt really going to gain respect is it? Makes them look a little more human but thats about it. I like the concept but it will end badly at some point. Unnecessary arguments will come from it.

There's a reason other sports don't have an official #AsktheRef - it's a PR disaster waiting to happen. All it will take is for one of these online spats to spill over into the real world and it's fold like a house of cards.

I'm all for accountability of refs but it should be through an official body, releasing open statements about refs performance (ie admitting when they get it wrong and actually doing something about it). All this does is allow idiots to abuse the ref personally and if the ref's are dumb enough to respond in kind then they're dragged down from a position of remote authority into the muck of a slanging match.

Agreed. It should be a proper response to proper questions, not this Urban Dictionary rubbish as seen above.

Bans in place, well done Hull KR: www.superleaguefans.com/hull-kin ... rders.html It bans them from entering Craven Park but no mention of away grounds - although I guess that would be harder to monitor.

Seen in the Guardian that they've been charged with something or other.
