| I have just witnessed the disgraceful interview given by Peter Roe on Look North.
He should hang his head in shame at using this shocking incident as another reason to have a go at Halifax RLFC.
Nearly twenty years on and he still has a grudge for being sacked.
What happened after the game is much more important than what happened on the field.
I will be writing to the BBC to complain and I hope the club will too.

| Peter Roe Claimed that all the Trouble was caused by Halifax fans who went towards the Featherstone fans after being evacuated onto the pitch.
It was a sad and dispicable swipe at the club ,and to make such a judgement when a man is fighting for his life in Hospital shows what a feeble excuse for a Human being Mr Roe is.

I think it's on I Player.
I have already complained at www.bbc.co.uk/complaints/homepage/
The thrust of it was that Fax fans created an threatening atmosphere whilst on the pitch.
My blood is boiling ....

| He wants to watch the Sky replay from our stand when we get evacuated. Right at the end a large group of Fev fans can be seen trying to charge on to the pitch. What were they thinking. The guy is a joke.

| The worst of it is that it is a blatant fabrication. The flatcappers had already been fighting amongst themselves or with the York fans in their stand a long time before our guys were evicted from the stand. The stewards and police had been called in to sort out a fracas of some kind after 15 mins of the game starting.
I was approached in MacDonalds after the game by one of the security guards who showed me his id and volunteered "for the record I believe the Fax fans were exemplary in their behaviour today."
There was only one set of fans responsible for any bother at the game.
And, just to be clear here. It was a very small minority of flatcapped clowns who were involved. The vast majority of their fans were there to have a great day as were our fans. No doubt we had one or two prats there too.
Mr Roe is a twit (check spelling as I don't think I'd get away with anything rhyming with cat). Why on earth he was dragged up as the voice of RL on the prog is beyond me. It is like getting Paul Macartney to do a commercial for British meat.

| I saw this interview on look north this evening and used the link above to complain, I know the main thing is for Dave to make a quick and full recovery but to think that myself and other fax fans are responsible for creating threatening atmosphere which gave the thugs a reason to attack a fellow fan makes my blood boil too! this is a copy of my BBC complaint.
[i I have just watched the interview with Peter Roe reference his account that the trouble was started by Halifax Fans running at the featherstone fans when they were evacuated on to the pitch. If you had done any groundwork about using Mr Roe you would know that Mr Roe was a unpopular coach who was sacked by Halifax in his 1st season, and he is by no means a impartial observer, having been a popular Featherstone coach with strong ties with the featherstone area.
I was there at the game and this was not the case which if you were to look at the sky TV coverage you would have observed! When we were told to get on the pitch as quick as possible we could immediatly see numerous featherstone fans surging down the terracing to confront Halifax fans one of which managed to get past the stewards, and get on to the pitch, he got within a few feet of myself and my kids and I could see that he was about to launch himself into any fan he could get too, luckily another steward managed to grab him and get him back. Before, during and after the game a mindless Fev element which I'm sure will not be regular RL fans were causing trouble which eventually left one of our fans fighting for his life in hospital! If you had approached the Cheshire Police They would have informed you of trouble started at various pubs by drunken Featherstone fans. This report, I know from speaking to other people who were at the game, as left them angered at the thought that Halifax fans are portrayed as the culprits and responsible for creating a atmosphere which would give a 'excuse' for the violence committed[/i!

You can also email directly to the presenter of your choice on Look North directly.
Harry.Gration@bbc.co.uk etc. Put the words "Complaint re Peter Roe" in the subject box. If you feel strongly and enough and enough people write in then they may feel it necessary to respond.
My Email stated:
[iHarry
I know you're not the person to direct complaints to, however I believe you may help in righting a wrong made on the programme tonight.
Peter Roe's version of events at the Halliwell Jones were a blatant fabrication of events that could damage Fax's Super League ambitions. They were made by a man with a giant chip on his shoulder from being ousted as coach years ago.
The flatcappers had already been fighting amongst themselves or with the York fans in their stand a long time before our guys were evicted from the stand. The stewards and police had been called in to sort out a fracas of some kind after 15 mins of the game starting.
The programme's choice of "commentator" on the issue was nothing short of bias against the Halifax club.
It should be stated in tomorrow night's show that the views expressed by Peter Roe were his own and that they may not be a true reflection of the events.This serious mis-judgement by the programme makers should be dealt with professionally and promptly (ie not waiting for 10 days to pass through the BBC complaints system).
Your programme normally has my highest regard for top journalism and a balanced view however it missed the mark tonight by a long shot. Only a small amount of research would have revealed the axe Peter Roe has to grind and he took pleasure in plunging the knife in.
I know that we can trust you to take the matter up with the programme makers.
Yours sincerely[/i
PS the bit about top journalism etc was a bit tongue in cheek, but you have to give a little to get a little.

| Strange too that Harry Gration, absent last night, re-appeared tonight.
I bet he suggested Roe for the piece.
BTW Roe is entitled to his views, however distorted but the BBC have a responsibility to fairness and balance.

What a total muppet you appear to be, Not many people come on here in comparison to the regional news and for Peter Roe to fabricate the truth as he did to tarnish a good club with good fans enrages the hell out of me. You choose to sign up here and post or not, To be honest he has done more harm than good to the game of rugby league in general.

It bothers me that one Fev fan (Peter Roe) posted a complete untruth on a forum with much more power than any internet RL forum namely BBC News. His lies will have reached millions of viewers tonight and may have damaged a club with aspirations of a great future.
No, whether people post untruths on this forum doesn't really bother me as it is inconsequential given the number of people it reaches. Forums give people the opportunity to say whatever they like and we can choose whether to take it seriously or not. Much bo**ox is talked on here, but the good folk of Yorkshire tend to believe what is said on the telly.

| Dont want to get into a slagging match with you or anyone else just stating that there is alot of things posted on here that are not true. As for a Muppet thats your opinion and i will not respond to that. As a supporter of Featherstone Rovers and RL in general lets hope things settle down and we can all start discussing next season and how we think our clubs are going to do
