I just think it's odd you are letting a few individuals put you off a sport altogether.

Football is my favourite sport, but the fans are f*cking idiots. I'm a Manchester United fan but what the top flight in England has become is a joke to me. All the money, lack of English players, violence between fans has put me off a lot in recent years. I go to watch a few away games with my friends who are Blackpool and Bury FC fans. Some of the stuff I hear and see in the crowds makes me look down on a lot of people. I saw Bury play the other week, they were 4th in the table and riding high for their level. They got beat 2-1 and about 20 fans rushed to the front of the stand and started telling the team how bad they were. It made me laugh and think what a bunch of idiots. Sale have won twice away from home in 2 years, and they think one defeat is bad? I saw a Youtube clip of a game between 2 sides in the Evo-Stik League last week, Chorley fans battering Chester fans, old men getting bricked and everything apparently. But do I judge the whole sport on those things? No.

A lot of Rugby League fans annoy me with their pure hatred of Union. I also see certain teams of which I won't mention incase I offend anybody - of which their fans sometimes think they're Football hooligans and do things that aren't wanted in any code of the game. But do I hate the sport because of these people? No.

Unless you're talking hundreds of people who have been really bad to you, then I suggest you try and find it in you to stop being so harsh.

That's your opinion and you're intitled to it.

It also sounds to me you have problems with RL as much as I have with RU.

As I say each to their own and live and let live,but please don't judge me on something which I have witnessed and experienced.

No, not really. As I'm on here having a peaceful discussion about UNION on the UNION thread mate. I just find a lot of the fans to be a bit thick and dull. I don't have a problem with all of them, hence most of the conversation flowing nicely on here. The fact I don't like the sport too much means I stay out of discussions, don't make any nasty remarks about it, don't be rude to their fans and flick over if it comes on tele. I was at the Grand Final as I said, just not a huge fan. That's why I only post in this thread and no others now.

I caught the start of glos v bath on Saturday.

Glos ko, bath kick the ball back. 3 passes and kick to touch. Bath gain line out FB kicks to glos FB who kicks it back this is then repeated and then bath kick it again. Glos then run the ball 7 meters and the chip kick which goes into touch.

I then turn over.

And after that Gloucester scored 4 tries and Bath scored 3 tries in what was a very entertaining, highly controversial West Country match

dont forget 5 boring pens as well.

Don't forget this site is called RLFans.
I gather from your comments you are calling me and others thick and dull,each to their own.


As I have said before myself and I imagine quite a few RL fans have experienced what the other code has been like with RL associated people.

You are judging all RL fans who have had this bitter and nasty episode in their life,that's your choice and you are entitled to it.

Yes, I am calling you thick. Because you don't have any common sense. You're obviously a massive sh-it stirrer, or just plain thick. As if you read what I said properly you would have seen me saying I find a lot of the fans thick, but on the whole don't have a problem with them.

Instead, you decide to skip past the points of peace, where I'm being neutral and welcoming, and decide to read it as "I hate League". Anyway, I won't be rising to your bait on here anymore. You've reeled me in for the last time, I know better.

I see your true colours coming out now.

Massive 5h1t stirrer,

get over yourself,you are even admitting you find a lot of RL fans thick,but don't have a problem with them,you patronising g1t.

As I have said I have no problem with you personally,but you are making it personal with your insults.

If you have a problem with so called thick RL fans having a go at your sport tough luck mate,that's life.

A lot yes. Did you not do maths at school? It's basic really.

Let's say there are 6 billion people on the planet. Say I know.....10 Rugby league fans I don't like? That's a lot of people, to me. But in the grand scheme of the Earth - it's not a lot of people at all.

Basically, if you don't like Union, then f*ck off out of this thread.

I am well aware it's RLfans, but if you scroll down you will see tens of different sports. Wrestling, Hockey, Football, American Football. This is a thread for those people who want to talk about this code of Rugby.

Most of the people are polite, you are anything but. So just p!ss off and leave people to talk. I'm not saying it all has to be positive, but there are ways around making yourself look like a complete and utter one dimensional pr!ck.

Scroll up (if you know how to do that) and have a look at the part where I praised many things about League before you accuse me of hating everything about it

Listen pal I come on this forum to discuss mostly RL and the odd time RU.

You will eventually realise there are RL fans who don't like your game,get over it,then there are others who like RU,each to their own.

I would class myself as polite,I haven't verbally abused anyone on this site to my knowledge (until now).
It's obvious you are not polite with your insults and verbal diaorrhea.

Deary me. I'm offline for a week and this thread descends into chaos 

I agree shark about football fans generally not caring about either league or union BUT for one clear (and rather strange) exception look at Wigan and a sizeable amount of the latics fans.
Every sport has it's fair share of 'thick and dull' followers, union and league included.

Personally I couldn't give a monkey's about Wycombe. If the council prefer to chase the coin and make the union club their priority then it's them that should come under fire not the ru club.

Rumour going around that wasps are after Stefan Ratchford.
Was speaking to a couple of Orrell players and a union ref last week and none of them knew anything about the game at the Reebok. Come on super Mick Hogan, put those millions to use.
