That can't be right.

Even if it hit a kid, which I sincerely doubt, it could hardly be intentional.

I can just picture all these little St Helensers running around shouting that Hock threw a ball in a kid's face.

It's just a load of nonsense.

I struggled to believe that was an [iofficial[/i twitter feed.
A Saints bias is only natural - but that reads like the personal account of a stroppy whining teenage fan.

Maybe I just have unrealistic expectations when it comes to professional standards and conduct - but reading that makes me doubt whether Rugby League can ever be anything more than smalltime.
Players posting mindless drivel on personal accounts is one thing, but on a club account; I'd expect more than that.

It has been reported that the RFL are to allow tries given to the value of six points at future Langtree Park matches, penalties and drop goals are also to be banned just in case a ball lands in the home sections.

If that is the official twitter feed, its appalling

The only thing I can see on that Twitter link is the statement: Am I missing something?

[iUnsupervised[/i work experience kid.

Will someone tell me what was put because I think it's been removed.

All still there, just go down to the comments made mid-match regarding the ref, and Wigan players behaviour.

Just read it, it's horrendous. Look at the differences between that official twitter feed and ours. Typical Saints.

Apparently it was the DJ in the Founders Bar who made the unfounded allegation about damage. Well that makes it official then!

I see they have now locked the thread they started on the Stains board. No wonder as this story has become rather embarassing. I bet they haven't deleted all the associated vitriolic bile yet from redpee though.

An apology from Saints would be nice.



All clubs have a few idiots who support them and while we've got fewer than most, I just hope no one sees this as some sort of provocation to do something stupid the next time we're at TP.
