Quote: Kenty "Surely alcohol fuelled violence, however significant, is only a part of the dynamic? It's the sense of entitlement elements of our fans hold in that they believe it's ok ( drunk or not) to act oafishly.Dont Know if it's a northern territorial RL thing but doesn't appear to happen in RU ( could have separate debate on that one!)
I'm no angel but language is at times cringeworthy but seems magnified on trips to London/Perpignan and not confined to youngsters.'"


Its not just R/L
Its starting again in football
Plenty of aggro on the tubes in London with rival fans and football fans abusing the public

And yet they do not serve alcohol on the tube.

Lets ban pies, pasties and confectionery too.

If you can't go for 80 minutes without a pie then maybe you need to shed a few pounds eh?

Quote: ComeOnYouUll "There's a difference between the mosh pit at a gig and a stand full of families at a rugby league game.'"

My point was that for the idiots who go in mosh pits and sling £’s worth of beer onto unsuspecting people are probably the same idiots who do it at Rugby games. I was stood behind a “family” at Leeds recently and their adolescent sons were peeling labels of lager bottles and trying to through them into other peoples drinks. Not under the influence, just sodding annoying and their parents were laughing d040.gif like I said, I blame Thatcher.

It's never gone away in football. Just not been as well publicised.
Massive Police presence outside premier league games has just moved it to different areas of the Towns and Cities.

We all, as supporters of the game, have a duty to stand up and be counted.
When someone throws a glass or bottle, or anything else. When someone uses racist/abusive language, we should be pointing it/them out to the stewards.

I don't believe it when I hear things like, no one saw it or heard it. In this day and age it is nigh on impossible to do anything, without someone have caught it on camera.

Get tough on the idiots that can't handle their drink.

Identify. Name. Shame.
Get their faces in the local rag and on social media.
Get them banned from all grounds for 2 years.
Work in conjunction with the police, so if the police are given evidence of them entering a ground in that period, they can be prosecuted.

Public shaming will affect their work lives. They'll think twice.

As for banning alcohol - it would kill a lot of income and not tackle the issue completely.
A no drink zone family area would be nice, with strict rules about behaviour. The ground is big enough. Get some bouncy castles on the concourse behind the North Stand but block off access to the seating area. Encourage families to go on that area away from those that aren't quite as family friendly.

Develop a culture.

What's really disappointed me is the lack of statement from the club after the Semi Final. I know who one of the idiots was who threw a pint yet there has been no way or method of reporting them. It's as though the club didn't care about the incident at all.

This is very poor from the club.
It seems that at least one individual, who could be used to set an example to others, is being allowed to get away with it, and that certainly doesn't send out the right message to these idiots.

Without being funny but if you know who one of the individuals is then why not just either ring the club or email the club? Why do you need the club to tell you how to report it?
Simply calling the club or emailing them is already something that you can do so there is a way/method.

I get the feeling the RL clubs don't want to tackle the issue, I know for a fact that a lad who threw a bottle on the pitch towards Tommy Makinson at our home game against saints, he was pointed out and ejected. He got a ban, which amounted to a warning and banned for 2 weeks when we didn't have a game and told if he does it again he'll be banned. You do wonder what the point is.

Saying that the wire fans are doing what a lot of every teams fans are do, blaming everyone but themselves for the scenes on Saturday, football fans, the Ref, the oppo fans, Kenny Edwards!!!

I'm not sure what the answer is but I pick and choose away games nowadays purely because I got sick of idiots so drunk they wont remember the game just being annoying and making it an uncomfortable experience.
