At least no one has tried to label them football fans this time, or claim that the people throwing bottles from the Wire end are not Warrington fans. Yes, they might be idiots but if they're there to watch us then others will rightly see them as Warrington fans.

Not a good image for the sport on its grand occasion, with an unusually high number of casual fans watching on TV. There will always be a small minority of nobheads in most clubs' support, we seem to have more than most. Thankfully the vast majority of supporters are well-behaved.

Idiots for throwing bottles, no excuses for that. But so is Escare for clapping and goading the fans and trying to get a reaction which he got.

Is this what was going on in the tunnel? Couldnt see clearly from the The Sir Purple Nose stand - just a bit of a melee.

Yes, bottles were being thrown and Hill and Goodwin were telling the fans to stop it. All the Wigan players just ignored it and walked off but Escare started clapping and laughing, that's when Goodwin pushed him and that's when their was the scuffle near the tunnel.

We had in front of us about 15 lads there not wearing colors who were celebrating every Wigan try like they had won the Euromillions. Turning around a sticking the V's up and purposely aiming it at certain Wire fans who they knew they would get a bite off.

This was in the Stretford end as well. I think its absolutely ridiculous to have mixed fans in the stands behind the sticks. It's asking for trouble. Magic weekend gets away with it because its a regular round, there's nothing riding on it mid-season. this is the only Super League game that matters all season, passions run high, especially for the supporters of the teams involved. If Denying tickets behind the sticks to neutrals and the like effects the attendance then it's time to move the game to a smaller venue. when we're successfully selling that venue out year on year look for a slightly bigger venue and do the same again.

Thanks. I had thought one of our players would have pinned Tomkins against wall for his filthy knee'ing. I can bet Mike Nic, Tamati, Morley et al would have.
