| As a Rovers fan of many years I have seen the following in the last few years, scrapping in and around Craven Park (not all the time,but happens) e.g the Hull v. Rovers disgrace the other year, again poor stewarding followed by the nutters. Scrapping in the East stand amongst ourselves, e.g when some numptys become disgustingly abusive and people object, = flashpoint, followed by crap stewarding. Away at the KC (twice) been spat on , assaulted and my 2 young daughters the same, and seen some serious scrapping (actually outside in the side streets etc). Have been to the KC since and had no trouble.
All I can say is please don't tar all of us with the same brush, but yes there are definetly some complete nutters go to Rovers and Hull.
As regards the nutters at other clubs, perhaps yours included, I will not comment or get into a p!ssing contest, BUT i will not attend away games for a number of reason, time, money and not wanting to be treat like an idiot by police or stewards, or mainly because I do not need to be abused or assaulted by anyone just because of a game of rugby.
I would not blame anyone who decides to NOT travel to the City of Hull to watch rugby, until safety is guaranteed, but I can't see it happening 100% anytime soon.
I really do think it's society in general at the moment, just look at the news....eg a guy in Pudsey gets a cricket ball thrown at his car, stops to sort it out, set upon by a gang and stabbed twice....ffs, what's that all about ?
Anyways....enjoy your rugby and good luck for the season

If thats the worst you have been called in your life then you must lead a very sheltered one, fans have been singing that song for more than thirty years, its called banter for goodnes sake, get over it

no i dont mind that cos all teams sing it, i just think that parents shouldnt be letting their children hang out of a car singing that to fans. at that age its obvious that the parents are encouraging it

| Quote: Little Robin Redhead "I have to agree, there does seem to be a real problem with a small number of "fans" from most clubs. Over the course of this season there has been reports of mascots being attacked, cars being vandalised, coaches being bricked & numerous cases of verbal abuse.
The clubs really need to start getting tough with these idiots.
I am genuinely sorry that a number of idiots spoilt your day yesterday & that some of you won't return because of them.'"
won't stop me coming I ain't really witnessed any crowd trouble at hull kr and just the 1 occasion at fc after the 05 game were hull decided to fight instead of watch there team parade challenge cup...
What seems odd is that after the quatre final last year I came across very nice friendly kr fans wishing us well in the semi final etc but after they have won a game there's crowd trouble

2 much alcohol and blood rushing to there heads more then likely - no excuse though.

Looked like a golf ball to be honest.
Happened on the bridge after the Crown pub on the corner.

| Quote: Thelonius "Only time I have genuinely feared for my safety at a game was prematch at Hull KR in the pre SL days.
Despite deciding then to never return, I have been back to Hull twice ('that' cup game and the Joey game at the KC) and on both occasions we (my young son and myself) were on the end of some of the most vicious and foul mouthed abuse I have ever heard. Rival banter is one thing, but some of the vitriol that I have only ever experienced in Hull goes way beyond what's acceptable.
Regardless of the occasion, I will not be travelling to either Hull club at any point in the future.'"
Shame really as majority of fans are nice genuine people.
I remember going to Wilderspool back in the 80's and being scared stiff of some of the idiots who went in those days--in fact Warrington fans were well known for trouble back then.

Yep Wilderspool back in those times with changing ends could be a bit daunting for away fans.

I let our kid sing Shiit Helens. As long as she knows it's only acceptable at the rugby and that she isn't to repeat those words anywhere else, I think it's fine. It's pretty hard to take a kid at an impressionable age to a sporting arena and not expect them to pick up some of the language/chants. Just need to be responsible about how you go about it.

Warrington has its idiots, same as every other club, but I have never witnessed a gang of 20somethings screaming into the face of a 7 year old that they hope he and his dad effin die on the way home as happened to us outside the KC. Nor have I witnessed teenagers surrounding a car with a family in it banging on the windows and roof whilst hurling verbal abuse as happened after the cup defeat at KR.
I'm sure there are thousands of really decent folk in Hull, I have chatted with many at cup finals and 'magic weekends', but the idiots take things to a level that I have never witnessed anywhere other than Hull.
