| Quote t-r-i-n-i-t-y="t-r-i-n-i-t-y"I'll tell you why the 'We all hate XYZ' chants should be left to rest - we, in the last six months, have lost two members of our playing squad, and in the last year had a number of players who are part of the foundations of this club. Let's have a bit of respect for the players who take to the field for all teams and support our own lads rather than denigrate others.
I don't like Bradford, there are other teams I'm not particularly fond of, but I love my club and I support my club. They aren't perfect, they do things which annoy me, but jeez, I am a Wakefield Trinity Wildcats supporter, and rather than use phrases like 'never has beens' like I have in the past, I' going to be as positive as I can be about those men that take to the field with my hopes and dreams on their backs.
You go back and look at the posts on the threads about Walker and Watene and see supporters from all clubs on there offering support and condolence - and then sing 'We all hate XYZ'
I'm really annoyed about all this, probably too much, but I don't want to see the goodwill and good name our club has do to waste cos a few idiots can't hold a drink and enjoy the game without swearing, goading and generally being offensive.
If a steward tells you to sit down, you sit down. If they tell you to stop swearing, you stop swearing. If they tell you to keep your shirt on, you keep your shirt on. You don't listen to them - tough.
If you genuinely believe you shouldn't have been kicked out of the stadium - write to the SMC, to both clubs and explain why. Don't try to justify yourselves on here, sort it with those who have 'wronged' you.'"
superb post

I don't care what it's like at a football match. This isn't football, this is rugby league - I'm proud we're a family sport and I'd like it to stay that way. All people need to do is behave - it really is simple.

a bit of banter is fine and sometimes i have gone over the top.

As you get older your priorities change, the majority go to watch the game, to support the team and to have a laugh and some banter. When your young it's generally the other way around.
What you need to understand is that whilst you consider your 'banter' a bit of fun others might well see it as offensive and threatening.
If you are a genuine supporter of the club then please realise that your behaviour is not helping the club but in fact it is damaging the club.

Agree entirely!
Also although lots of the chants were started by our bunch at the back some have got caught up in the excitement and took things too far? Chants are chants and make a great atmostphere but trying to antagonise opposition fans is another thing.
Im 17 but have had the odd drink at a match however never being thrown out for it? I would ashamed if i had.
A case of a select few "tarring" the rest's reputation.

Don't try and use other clubs as a side note to your arguement, the point is it is not acceptable or wanted at any level and we as fans do not like to see our own go down this route,it is after all "A family sport"

It doesn't matter what happens at other clubs, we are talking about Wakey and how our fans behave is a reflection on the club, whether you like it or not.

Because you are representing my club and my city when you travel away. Just because it may happen at Cas or anywhere else is irrelevant and doesn't mean it is OK for those 'supporting' Wakefield to do the same!

An excellent post as others have said.
I go to the games to support my team - if I am abusing the other teams fans then that means I am not supporting my team so I won't waste my energy doing that.
The people being abusive are an embarrassment to the club - it may be meant in fun but it is not seen that way. These same people could be an example of what a great club we can be if they channelled their efforts for the good of the club. Only they can choose if they want to be respected or be a stain on the clubs support.
