Some of the attitudes shown by the majority of posters on this topic are embarrassing.

I have both a season ticket for Town and Fartown, and to wish any sort of defeat on the town's only other professional sports club is totally and utterly stupid.

Promotion to the Championship would have done wonders for both us and Town, with bigger crowds meaning more revenue to Fartown (although probably not 80% anymore as I think Hoyle is trying to sort out the shares debacle.)

I watched the Fartown match on my phone before the game, and there was plenty of interest from others around me, (all genuine fans btw, not day trippers like a lot were) as to what the Fartown score was, and all were admittedly delighted when I told them that we had won.

I can't believe the first few posters laughing at Town's misery, as I, and am sure plenty of others, would be hurting just as much if Fartown had lost in a final.

I'll be at the Shay next week, and I'll be at the Galpharm next year to hopefully watch Town finally be where we belong.

We've never had it better as a town with regards to our sporting teams, we are heading Super League, and Town have just broken all sorts of records on the way to getting to Old Trafford.

Think we should cut the childish crap and realise that we have two awesome sides in this great town of ours, and hope for once that we can both achieve something special.

I think some town fans are what's known in the business as 'Sanctimonious Obnoxious Self-Centred Arrogant Ignorant W*nkers'

you see Joey.
a lot on here are against town fans the way they say we ruin the pitch.must admit rugby players stand in the of the pitch or the goal mouth all game and wear the pitch out.i think not.
they turned against Ken Davy who saved them.myself and many others marched from the old Fartown ground too the galpharm in protest of the merger.when we got there Ken Davy walked towards us chanting Fartown.not one of us turned against him,spat at him,swore at him or sent death threats.
I have been spat on,abused,pushed and shoved allsorts for wearing a claret and gold shirt.i had a choice sunday whatch town or count the grains of salt in the salt pot,have a guess.
my post was at town fans not the club and stand by it.

i didn't notice much anomosity from fartown fans towards town until all that disgusting stuff about ken davy in particular came about from a section of the town support.every single thing that went wrong seemed to be our fault because ken davy was taking money out of their pockets etc.
if thats how they treat a bloke who saved their bacon then they deserve everything they get (those supporters i mean not HTFC in general)

great march that fella, never had any physical abuse about watching fartown but loads of verbals
