Upon reading the thread you could either; share the link to people you know in order to try and identify the people the police are looking for and rid your club/the sport of these people.

Or, lose your mind that it was an FC fan who shared it with you and devote your energy into a mud slinging contest instead.

Not really surprised seeing who the respondees are. I imagine most Rovers fans are doing what they can to identify them.

Don't be so blinkered. While I agree that rovers fans should be showing this around to catch the culprits, the posting of this is a clear case of an FC fan goading Hull KR fans for a response which some have duly obliged.

What was 'goading' about the OP?

Like I said, there was an option to react to it in a couple of ways, and the posters who responded decided to go down the "well FC fans did this" route.

Some people on the fans forum don't like fans of other teams posting on other teams boards.

Yes, I am a Wakefield fan, and have married a Hull KR fan. We were there that day in the East Stand.

Having read this, the comments on here and on Facebook, are they looking just at Hull KR fans regarding the trouble.

From where I saw it, the problems started with Salford's pitch invasion, when Johnson initially scored the try to bring the scores level, and then when O Brien kicked the drop goal. When they invaded the pitch at the end, they didn't just go over to their players and congratulate them, there was a lot that went straight past them to the East Stand, and started goading the supporters. It takes two parties to have a fight, and the authorities should be looking at those Salford fans too.

I seem to recall a post on the Hull KR Facebook page, of a Salford supporter in the Colin Hutton stand who caused a lot of the trouble, he also, according to the post punched a Hull KR player. If this is so, what has happened to them?

Another question, Salford are no strangers to crowd trouble. Earlier in 2016, there was trouble against Huddersfield. Were those involved in the trouble at Huddersfield involved at Craven Park?

Or it could just be commenting on a HDM rugby related article? I read it and watched the video,took me back to being there and I can't make excuses for anyone else.what I will say is initially some very big Salford hooligans entered pitch prompting mainly young kr fans to meet them on said pitch the young lads were getting battered so more flooded on and it became more even.then the cops came in and took anyone out who persisted.a real mess and lessons must be learnt. The MPG is a game that only 4 teams and sets of fans have experienced so far and it is a horrid day (if you lose) but more security was probably needed and the cops in the ground I would have mixed with stewards.it wasn't a normal game or day and the scrapping whilst regrettable was inevitable.

Now then Mr wildcat.thats how I saw it as well.just stood there numb watching the fighting and was a sorry day.looked like a football firm and they were organised. I know it's a default setting that any knuckling at rugby matches is footy fans but in this case it was imo.that initial group muller ed the young lads who first responded.Anyway the fuzz will get to the bottom of it? Was hoping wakey would beat the curly turds on Sunday but rugby union esque penalty kicks saw them home .hope wakey go well for you this season

Thanks Craig

I though that at the time regarding the trouble, and that there was a football element in this, given there were fans in and around the ground wearing Man City and Man United Shirts. I got slated on here and on Facebook of blaming football hooligans, which is a fair comment. Is it a pure co incidence though that on this day neither Man City and Man United weren't playing on this day. Also, they didn't play when the trouble in the Huddersfield occurred.

Yes, we weren't far off against Hull. Overall happy with the performance, and think we could go well this year if we stay injury free. Losing England in the opening minutes left us with 16 bodies for the remainder.

We have a bigger pack, added speed to the backs and now have depth in the halves, though think we do need to properly replace Scott Moore, though Kyle Wood has looked ok so far.

Aye I thought wakey had signed well. Should be a good year

Anybody regardless of club affiliation that entered the pitch that day, that shouldn't have been there should be dealt with appropriately. There were a bunch of 'youths' ran down the East Stand steps past where I was stood totally numb, and onto the pitch that were clearly gunning for a scrap and had no 'colours' of either side visible, its also worth mentioning that I didn't recognise any of them as usual east stand fans.
The match result and the manner of it was awful to watch, but what followed was even worse and seeing fans of both sides fighting with each other and physically and verbally abusing our players was too much for me to take and I left in a state of mind I would never wish on any fan of any club. As has been said; in future MPG's there is so much as stake that proper security is an absolute must, and wherever and whoever are involved this season, I hope their clubs take note of the debacle that occurred the end of the match at Craven Park to ensure that it isn't allowed to happen again.

so you would just stand there if you saw your son or mate threatened by a big fat Salford fan , shame on you , we were all there that day and saw what happened as has been quoted , your joining in with the do gooders that don't really know the full cricumstances in my long time supporting kr at various grounds I have never seen a supporter attack or assault anyone only derbies .which works both ways

I hate it when people start blaming football fans or saying they weren't wearing any colours I don't wear any all fans there were rugby fans and what happened was always going to happen given the end whichever side won its human nature

I'd tell my son or mate to walk away, piling in sorts nothing. Most of what happened happened between people who wanted a fight, either through drinking too much, being pee'd off with the situation or they're just that way inclined.

He/she started it / it wasn't real fans of our club ect, are playground excuses. If a Salford fan had windmilled into the east stand then fair enough but if it was a bit of goading then people need to grow up. I've been supporting rovers for long enough now to know we have a minority of Richard's (and Richardesses) who support our club and are itching for any excuse to have a go.

The situation was embarrassing, the defending of it is even worse and bringing other clubs past misdemeanours into is it at best a straw clutching deflection.
