What a disgrace that Broadbent was today towards the fans, just because one fan complained about the performance and how shocking it has been for weeks. He just snapped and turned around to all the fans behind including myself and told us all to stop complaining and being so negative and to save our money and to f**k off. Like we all said he shouldn't say something like that as a member of staff and why shouldn't we be able to complain after we pay his and the players wages.

Hope AG speaks to him and he is made to apologise to the 'innocent' fans he directed his remarks to. The fans do indirectly pay their wages.

Saw the commotion from afar but didn't know what caused it or what was said. If what he has said what's been reported on here then he should be ashamed of himself.

he used the f**k work numerous times in front of familys... if i do that at work tomorrow i would be sacked !!!! we all understand things are tough at mo, especially for the coaching staff,but what happened this afternoon by beans was in excusable

Sack him end of. He's useless anyway and from what I've heard doesn't even have his coaching badges. Another mate of jks!

I posted this on the other page, but now a thread has been created with this topic, i'll chuck in my two penneth;


Hi, i don't often post on here but i was genuinely disappointed at the whole PB thing (the game, as much as it was a shocker, i do love the fact that us Wakefield fans can still find humour in adverse times!) As BigAl states (on the other page) it was the big bald guy that was throwing abuse towards the dugout and generally about the team, but the thing that rattled a few cages for the fans who heard it was the fact that Beans did not direct his frustration towards the one fan inparticular, he used the choice of words "All you lot..." before his outburst. I looked at my friend in shock thinking "We've said jack s**t and we're getting abuse from our assistant coach!" Even my mate looked at me and asked "What have we done? I'm not going to get into the whole argument of if Kear & Co should go, let's be honest there has been plenty of discussion on here about the pro's and con's, and i'm a great believer in there is no black and white areas, everything is grey (sounds like a mundane world that i live in!) It could have been a bad choice a phrasing from PB to be fair, heat of the moment and all that, but my thoughts simply by the end of the game were, concentrate on getting our team to perform and up to scratch, don't try picking petty slanging matches with disgruntled fans who do technically pay his wages (even though he denied this in his rant), so do have a right to voice their opinions about the product we are seeing...

If you avoid the swear filter you'll not be posting on here, its that simple.

1 ban tonight already and i'm happy to make it two.

I Didn't really swear to be honest with you. I Blanked it out i only put an f and k and stars so if thats a swear word thats new to me.

He wrote "swear filter".

So you avoided the swear filter!

No defence for Broadbent on this one turning on a whole group of fans is not the brightest move and certainly not at this point with the way things are going on the field. Lets hope there is an apology coming pretty quickly.

I have to say JK was in the next box to us today, not his usual one, and his language leaves a lot to be desired especially since we had a 12 year old with us.

Sack him, he's useless anyway.

There needs to be. The tail can't wag the dog. No fans, no club.

Exactly Broadbents language was not acceptable especially when he was having a go at the fans that had said nothing.

The public broadcast says that: "Rugby League is a family game, foul and abusive language will not be tolorated"
