Have a word with yourself man, could be an expensive party and chucking a "flare" into your own fans is poor form.

| Quote: senoj "We draw attention to it as the group of morons who let the flare off in the tap n tackle and at the ground are damaging the reputation of the club and spoiling it for others, so in my view it is fully merited. If anyone sees anyone acting in this way in the future I would like to think that they would be reported to the authorities and to the Club so that they can be banned for life.'"
A mate of mine who's a Wakefield fan was on about this and sounded oddly proud of it all..... I pretty much said that to him word for word.
Why some folk think it's a good thing to make your supporters look like idiots baffles me.
I heard half a dozen folk say "no pyro no party" when the flare was let off at cas a couple of years ago.
Likely the same people. I'm sure they're thrilled to bits with themselves.
Similar comments from the poster above just brings into question your entire credibility.
Every club has its idiots, but it'd be good to think that the other 99% would stand against them.

| The title of the thread is misleading and not helpful - 'Wakefield fans' should read 'some idiots,' as only the most partisan VT poster would suggest that because some overgrown schoolboys misbehaved, they represent the whole fan base - such as it is.

I am sure you have given the club a massive clue as to your involvement,thus aiding their enquiries.

While I don't think for one minute that you condone the actions of some Cas fans, they've not exactly covered themselves in glory either over the years, and while not condoning the moronic actions of a few of our idiots' by comparison some of your fans have by far embarrassed your club more than our idiots', I'll not mention all the incidents as it would not serve any purpose, but personally I don't think your in a position to pass any moral judgement on this issue.

I PERSONALLY am, since I've never once caused any bother at a rugby match. So actually yes, I can look down on these morons.
As I would look down on them if they were castleford fans.
I assume you'd agree that the people involved don't represent Wakefield fans as a whole. Please judge our supporters in the same way.
It is silly to get into a "our fans are nicer than your fans" argument, I agree. We should all stand together against any form of hooliganism

Its funny you say the people involved don`t represent our clubs fans as a whole yet in your last post you say "Similar comments from the poster above just brings into question your entire credibility." Isn't that slightly contradictory Dave?
By the way my Mrs is a Cas fan and she`s a right hooligan.. Just saying

| Are they really supporters (both sides) or just there to cause trouble? I only ask because at last years magic weekend some idiots in front of us let a flare off and then ran away. They didn't have official Cas merchandise on but cheap tee shirts with a tiger on the front. Never seen them before or since.

Disappointingly, some of ours are regular "fans" and whilst the vast majority of our fans are well behaved and a credit to the club, just a few are there for their own personal "amusement", rather than supporting the Club.
However, for the first time at a non cup final/ major event, I think all Trinity fans were frisked/searched before entering the ground and I actually asked why this was. The steward said there were reports of Trinity "fans" setting flares off in the town centre. So, I believe they were expecting something to happen at the game.
It would be almost impossible to find "flares" of the type thrown as they are pretty small and would be easy to keep out of sight.

Spot on mate, in all the years I've been watching rugby league I've never once been searched. Last year at Old Trafford when the queues were a mile long and they just did a quick frisk on the odd person.
