Unfortunately, incidents happens at games like this. Fans are drinking from early on, and are hyped up, so get giddy and act stupidly at times.

I have seen it at plenty of Grand Finals, between Saints and Leeds, and Wigan and Bradford.

It wasn't Warrington fans on those days.

It was - they were just in cognito

By all means - bash Warrington and the fans all you want.

Although - i'd view fans of your calibre as Scum also.

It was at the one I went to, the one when Sinfield didn't take the two points right at the end and opted to run the penalty - we had a posse of tanked up wire fans two rows in front of us in the leeds end of the ground, who once they found out a shedload of wiganers were sat behind them spent most of the match with their backs facing the pitch hurling abuse. I thought at the time WTF have they come to this game for at all? - Rugby was pretty low on their list of priorities that day, and they weren't bits of kids either.

I can't even remember the year or who the opposition was or whether it was a grand final or challenge cup, the only things that stick in my memory of that day are Sinfields massive dropped-bollock with that penalty when we were all screaming "take the two" and the s from Warrington sat next but one row in front of us

Cardiff 2003

In my opinion people who call others scum because of what shirt they wear are less than scum and should go and support football.

And do you remind your own fans of that??

They consistently call us scum regarding the SC fiasco.

On a seperate note, I work in Warrington.

All the guys at work are great, and there has been some mild banter about the match, but most are magnanamous in their victory.

I am having difficulty being really pleased for them as I like them, and squaring that with some of the keyboard warriors, and hooligans that were at the match on Saturday.

Saints fans tvvated leeds fans in a GF are you scum?

I havent heard your club called scum by our fans (certainly not on here) i've heard them called cheats and scabs which is fair enough. And whats more i dont condone calling people scum based on which team they support (maybe you do, i dont know) which is the point i was making, even when i have seen wigan fans dish out disgusting abuse to kids i never called all wigan fans scum, because i realised it was a small minority. Anyone who calls fans scum based on which team they support are watching the wrong sport.

Oh there was plenty PLENTY worse behaviour from your fans! I remember a whole thread on your board wishing Maurice dead. I remember the abuse thrown at our academy when we played you at the Jungle! I remember a concerted campaign on your board by Beth iirc.

So don't come the holier than thou attitude when you have as many idiots in your own club.

If it's the one that I've just looked at it looks like a Wigan fan being removed from the crowd by stewards.

In the more recent past i've heard wigan fans wish maurice dead. As for people on our board starting threads about wigan, complaining on our board about a team cheating is nowhere near as bad as calling all the fans of one team scum. i never said that all clubs dont have idiots, in fact that was rather the point i was making that all clubs have idiots that cause trouble so to call all wire fans scum was discusting. I cant believe your backing up the poster who said these things.

No you haven't.



How about your chairman whipping up frenzied hatred against an U18s side? Is that "nowhere near bad" either? In fact, if you're honest, isn't that just about the worst thing you've ever heard about any chairman of any RL club ever?



Some clubs have many more than others, as Warrington and Castleford should know better than most.



I can't believe that after the behaviour of your club and your fans in the wake of your relegation, that you've got the nerve to show your face on here at all, let alone voice an opinion on hooliganism.

Yes i have heard wigan fans say such things, there has been plenty of hatred from wigan fans towards lindsay and wheelan. Our chairman never did any such thing, an anouncer who is no longer at the club did. the worse thing i have ever heard of a chairman do is deliberatley cheat. As for idiots at clubs most clubs think our fans are great and look forward to coming to our ground, so to sugggest we have more of a problem than other teams is rubbish. Same with warrington fans, no else seems to have a problem with them. Wigan fans have one of the worse reputations in the league, but thats not the issue, the issue is that some fans on here think its ok to label all wire fans as scum, which is disgusting and doesnt belong in rl, i would say the same to any other fans that labelled another set of supporters as scum, the fact that you are supporting the people that say such things say alot about you.

As for nerve i think its amazing the number of wigan fans that had the nerve to go on our board revelling in the fact that you had cheated to stay up. Its a free country and i'm entitled to my opinion, and my opinion is that its wrong to label an entire set of supporters as scum.
