I don't think that's true at all. I've been going to watch Leeds United for a number of years, home and away, who are notoriously bad fans and hardly seen any trouble at all. It is coming into rugby more and more but I don't think it's fair to blame football supporters.

Regarding segregation it really does need to be sorted. There were a handful of Widnes fans in the North Stand who we're also looking for trouble and a few got kicked out just before the main trouble in the west stand

Do you think it could be people who don't usually go to RL games who might have been tempted by the discounted ticket offer? We had a so-called Cas fan banned recently for throwing a plastic bottle who shouldn't have been in the new members area. It turned out he had been given a ticket by a mate that wasn't his so shouldn't have been in there in the first place. If your members stand is policed correctly these problems should be ironed out given time.

It was a few idiots from both sides, been going to bv for 30 odd years and not seen owt like that. Was talking to the 20 or so widnes fans before game and they were sound. Takes two to tango - blame on both sides to me. The most fat and unfit stewards ever didn't help either. Was like sumo wrestling at one point.

Agreed. See the odd skirmish but nothing like that. Drunkard bell ends who when caught should be made to contribute to the fine before been banned!
Obviously the increased crowds are good but with it comes an increase in s!

As the old saying goes, ''you can't drink on an empty head''.
