I would think a couple have the Stewards to thank then for not wanting to take it further as I was at the game and saw the latter stages of it from where we were at the opposite end of the ground to the away fans.

It's all well and good making light of it and as I have said it wasn't on a par with a riot or anything like that but it was stupid and could have been costly to the Wakefield club.

The notion that fans should confront them once they have started is nearly as funny as watching them waddle down the touchline trying to catch up with the lads who were being taken out, sure a couple had to stop to get their breath a couple of times before they got to the bottom end.

Confronting lads who are kicking off with Stewards is only going to aggravate the situation and potentially get others involved unnecessarily.

The real fans did the right thing by letting the Stewards deal with it, it is after all what they are paid and trained to do. Idiotic actions like that tarnish the small but excellent majority that travelled, all because they have had a sniff of the bar mans apron.

Oh that would have helped. Great idea.
But as they were charging off to the stewards around the pitch it was unlikely anyway.

I'm genuinely surprised at your attitude to this Vast.
What I expect is to be able to pay to watch a rugby match without having to watch out for thuggish hooligans.
I don't think it should be a problem on Saturday night but clearly it is in some places but that place shouldn't be on a Sunday afternoon at a rugby match.
They need to know it isn't acceptable.
I hope they are prosecuted by the club and the police.

This behaviour will make people stay away and will kill the club even more.

I have to agree with Vasty - whilst public order offences at sporting events are pernicious and unpleasant, it's hardly a big surprise that they happen; rivalry, beer and an eclectic mix of people - I would suggest that if you stick a few thousand people in those circumstances anywhere, there'll be a few incidents; it's the way of the world. What matters is how its dealt with - and it sounds like this one was dealt with quite well?

As for the family game nonsense - RL really is no more a family sport than any other, and hasn't been for donkeys years - certainly not in my lifetime.

Well PopTart aren't you the goody two shoes. I'm glad you have never done anything wrong in your life. Did someone appoint you as the local snitch or did you take the role up all by yourself?

I can introduce you to the people involved and you can happily tell them your thoughts and how you think people should behave at a "family" game.

Yes it was daft what the 2 lads did but they tried to go watch the game at the other end. Initially there was no malice in it just 2 lads being boisterous they actually got sat down and had a laugh and a joke with some stewards before a couple started getting heavy handed. They never goaded or attacked any other supporter..

The police got involved ticked the lads off and sent them on there way. Why PopTart is it now down to you to carry on this witch hunt?? You want these lads banning??? Well there'll be another 30+ joining them, can the club really afford to lose that many fans at this current time?

Fortunately you're in the minority but if you want to take this further you can report the lads to the club yourself if you want them banning. Come meet us at the next game and you can point them out to the relevant authorities

Christ.

I regret that their so called act of "boisterousness " could cost the club a lot more financially. It also adds to view of the RFL that we are now exceeded our expiry date. A rugby ground is not like Westgate on a Saturday night but some of our supporters cannot differentiate between the two. I guess it is a sign of what we as a country have now become and Wakefield is a prime example.
We have castigated the Widnes supporters quite rightly but take a different view when it is our own. If this was an isolated event you could possibly argue it away but with us having a suspended fine hanging over us it would suggest we have a problem albeit restricted to 30 supporters apparently.
I note you ask if we could stand to lose the 30 then yes because they are doing nothing for our reputation and could be another excuse for supporters staying away.

Well I do hope it won't cost the club financially and it shouldn't do either. It really was a nothing incident that has been blown all out of proportion on here.

I really don't believe an incident like this would make anyone stay away, as I've previously mentioned there was no animosity towards any other supporters and it was a bit of a laugh that got out of hand. For someone to come on here and aggressively state that they should be prosicuted and banned is ridiculous

This post is just laughable. If the 30+ lads are all as hard of thinking as your idiotic mates then yes they can afford to lose them and the sooner the better. You do realise that the club has to set a precident here don't you, especially given its recent previous? It lets this incident ride and it has to let the next one go as well otherwise there are claims of unfair treatment, but then things might just be a little worse or more serious next time. It gets nipped in the bud now and if that means banning a couple of imbeciles so be it. If their mates who think it is acceptable to fight within the confines of a sports stadioum follow them so be it, good riddence.

Well if you feel so strongly about this I suggest you write a letter to the club and look get the individuals banned. You'll feel a lot better about your life then

Pathetic response - much like your attitude. You want to act like a brainless idiot, go watch Leeds United. If you know the people involved but don't want to reveal the names to club, that just sums you up.

Thank you for just proving my point.

Why should I reveal names? It's been dealt with. It's sad morons like you with nothing better to do with your life than cry on a dwindling forum that's got upset about this.

You say it sums me up, you don't even know me yet you make accusations about me?

Fortunately the people on here are in the minority and plenty of people have stopped coming on here including the club chairman because of boring moaning idiots like you.

If Michael Carter has an issue I'll speak to him about it.

If you people are desperate to know the lads who did it I'm happy to meet and introduce you, this is not aggressive or threatening and does not mean any violence will be involved it's just so you can vent your frustration face to face instead of on a forum.

As I've said before it was daft what the lads did but it was a scuffle with a few stewards and nothing more needs to come of it

You've moaned about it but not willing to do anything about it. Proves my point that your nothing but a busybody idiot

Lets leave it there.
