Quote: RLIMR "To be fair to the police/stewards in regard to the searching at the gates. You do have a group of fans who refer to themselves as the ultras. Do you not think that this has an impact on how certain sections of your support are looked upon?
Your ultra fans could have been carrying knives or flares etc. I don't think you can criticise the policing and stewarding for being too cautious.'"
is that why the chavs from st helens was hanging around like a bad smell? its a rugby league fan group who correspond and are in regular contact with the club with the sole intention to raise atmosphere and bring a together feeling between fans they arn't some underground organised fight club from football.
when there is a heavy amount of stewards and police officers for no other reason apart from rumours this will cause trouble.
