Genuine question - to both sides:

Was this match segregated? If not, why do those Widnes fans that want to stand not buy tickets for the North Stand (terrace) were they would be allowed to stand up all game without a moments bother?

2nd Question - to Widnes fans:

If your 'hardcore' prefer to stand, why was the Stobart made all-seater? Why not a 'home' terrace? Were the people of Widnes not consulted over various options for the format of their new stadium, as the people of Leigh were? Does your multi-millionaire chairman not have enough clout with the council to do summat about it? They sorted out the re-branded seating quickly enough - how long would it take to rip a section of seating out, and put up a few crush barriers?

If they cant stand at their own ground, why do they think they can at away grounds??

One rule for one........

Sod em they still LOST

I see no problem with a few fans stood up at the back of the stand. There are wrose things in the world.

It's the nanny states elf and safety numpties who are wrapping us up in bubble-wrap who need their heads sorting out.

In situations like this the stewards/LSV have little option but enforce the rules instead of applying a bit of common sense.

I was quite surprised that so many stewards were sent in as, after a few early hiccups at the LGFC games, there haven't been any problems in a similar sized group being stood up at the back of the West Stand for the majority of games. Makes me all the more grateful that we got our wish for terracing in the North Stand though!

The rules of the Stobart say you must sit down

Doesn't stop the Leythers all standing on the back row of the East stand when you visit.

Personally I can't see what harm that does at the Stobart, nor what harm those lads were doing last night.

if there are seats sit down if there arnt any stand there you go simple english for you mutants DOH!

this group are banned from the stobarts for doing the same thing for about two seasons in row, i just think these morons like getting a rise out of stewards.

Surely if they are banned from the Stobart their details/photos should be circulated to other clubs who can decide whether or not to allow them admission into their stadium.

There are about 3 people barred from our ground as far I know. I think one of them is that ginger lad who used to have the drum

Bar his try it's about all he could play on Thursday with Watto going great guns against him!
