thats the thing i dont want to see millions of police everywhere every game, i don't think its needed all the time, and these fans that have been priced out of football seem to be targetting rugby league. We as fans as well as the clubs need to address this and not turn our heads when things kick off, but do whats best and tell these s to move a long and go back to their holes.

I feel sometimes hull reputation means they get treated slightly unfairly, they didn't need an escort for the wrexham game, 99% of people know that. But i feel warrington sometimes haven't been recognised for having very simlar fans to hull yet don't get treated the same, why coz they have a cheshire address?
they don't need a big police following for wire v crusader or bradford etc, but big games like wigan it should be in place. The club and the police should judge the situations better than they currently are.

who is to say this mindless thug was a wire fan.from what i hear he came out of a pub near the train station.he may not of even been to the game.
there was a few words exchanged between myself (i was with my small child and im female)a small group of lads who kept shouting at me ''where were you at wembley' so i just replied .. supporting warrington to win the challenge cup...they soon stopped and we ended up having a laugh..sadly some people cant take a simple bit of banter and over react.but having said this the incedent near the train station was disgusting and i think the thug has been caught.

really?? that would be FANTASTIC news.
It's not just one though is it, there's multiple involved including the odd wigan fan

It doesn't matter to me if he is a fan or not, in or out of the ground, etc. the fact remains that you bear an increased risk of getting embroiled [ias a Wigan supporter[/i when you visit the HJ.

Hopefully Hogan and partner are OK now but what happened to them sadly vindicated the point I made in the other Warrington thread when I stated I will not go there again after the Catalan game.

There was a lot more than one involved and most had Wire shirts on, scumbags.

What happened after the Catalan game?

if you walked through the town or home for me, you had every in warrington shout, push and spit at you like you were hitler because another team beat us! it was horrible. For no reason what so ever. all i dared to do was wear a wigan shirt down sankey way! i've never felt so threatened in my home town.

I joined this forum today as a life long Warrington fan, wanting to offer another extension of the 'sorry' theme, and I will still do that; if it had been me and my wife, I would have probably never bothered to go to another game again. Having said that: I must be the only wire fan in the world that has never started any trouble, or spat/punched/abused another fan yet has had his wife spat at at Bradford (playoffs 06?), had to take cover from a fight at the grand final last year and got shoved towards a moving car leaving Leeds - I swear, with NO provocation. Calling us scum is well harsh - its the same as the muppet that hit Hogan et al assuming all Wigan fans are scum. In fact, when you guys got to the playoffs the other year by beating saints, me and my mates said well done cos you played so well. Have a think....... Al

I wondered who'd try to turn this thread into a slanging match..

didnt take long did it

Come on people, keep this on topic.

I will post updates when i have them from the Police, Warrington and the RFL.

Cheers
