Quote: Pickering Red "There was passion in that performance tonight in spite of all the injury adversity with Kelly and Ckarkson.
Lost our shape and discipline in the second half and failed to complete our sets. Looks like we will struggle to put 17 out next round at Widnes.
ONE MAJOR ISSUE FOR ME. A section of about 40 very drunk and rowdy Saints fans (some as young as 14) all stood up and singing non stop throughout the game had been put in amongst season pass holders in North Stand, Block C. They were abusive, vile, disrespectful, unruly, provocative, they threw beer at our fans including some young children, some were smoking and IMO they warranted ejection.
The stewards were inert and useless, despite multiple complaints. There were a lot of disgruntled Rovers fans, whose enjoyment of the game was spoiled by these louts, who have no right to be referred to as genuine RL fans.
I will be complaining to the club to take action and report their actions to the St Helens club and to ensure our ticketing idiots have a rethink for future games.
I'm upset for my team, but angry that the game was ruined for us in this way.'"
I was in block C of North Stand and completely agree with this and I to will let the club know that having to put up with behaviour like this is unacceptable.
I have no problem with raucous passionate support but this lot were aggressive, obnoxious, provocative drunken idiots more intent on goading Rovers fans than watching the game.
