There were plenty of people interested in the game last night as there are most games.

As anyone who reads RedVee will probably know I get annoyed by the children who use the ground as a dating agency when them doing so involves them running around and play fighting - it made a nice change to see the stewards last night telling the young lad who nearly knocked me over to stop messing about.

You can't force people to watch the game though, and at times the last 2 games I have understood why people will resort to having a conversation instead of watching the game - which isn't really a problem as long as its not getting in the way of those who want to watch the game watching.

I have to agree though that last night the atmosphere was non existent - but is anyone really shocked about that?

The "free kids season ticket" has got a lot to answer for.........it's made the situation a whole lot worse, with even more kids coming to the game who don't give a flying f*** about the game itself

But it also gets even more Children who do care about the game in. Its swings and roundabouts really I guess!

I counted 35 cracks in the concrete where I stand, last year I think there was only 33 cracks, so it shows that KR is slowly coming apart... Might have been 36 cracks though, I will re count when we play Salford next year.

I personally don't see the problem here. As a United fan you'd be well aware that Man Utd fans sing regularly about their local rivals (Man City and Liverpool) whether they play them or not.

I lol'd.

Take it you didnt go to the Millenium Magic this past two years then!

To be honest I agree with the original posters comments - I do find this behaviour - chavvy and annoying - to be expected at Knowsley Road. It is even more annoying when they come amongst the travelling fans and try and start something - usually under the noses of the stewards and when the visiting fans retaliate there is only one outcome - the visitors are ejected. This is a known problem so the club wants to try and sort it out.

Two years ago it happened TWICE whilst we were there and the stewards took the easy line and ejected the Leeds fans. I wrote to the club and they wrote back saying they would monitor the situation and brief the stewards for future games. It appears that it has sadly not happened.

I wouldn't say it was the worst. Leigh and Bradford must run it close.

FFS chill out - do you now have to pass an exam to come and watch a game of rugby.
Saints games should be places that young people want to attend, if its for the buzz or the game let them decide - it has always been so and now it is just legal to get in for free



And to have a go at singing, just because they are the "wrong" songs - well you need to ask yourself why would you say that

So long as these Kids arent making a nuisance of themselves and spoiling the game for others (and by that I dont include getting irritated by the mere fact they are there) then welcome them in - you never know they may even be getting counted in the upsurge in attendance figures that everyone is so proud about.

This is rich from a Leeds fan.

When i was young (under 15) i was one of those who didnt care too much about watching the game and would rather speak to my friends. Thats all changed for me now and i expect that will happen with a propotion of the younger fans when they come of age.

Bring back the childrens section where they can all mingle between themselfs and not bother other supporters, they would probably prefare that too. If their parents pay saints for their children to socialise who are we to care if they dont watch the game if they're out of sight in their own section.

Unaccompanied and under 16, enclose them in a pen I say

And as for "who are we to care" - if they are spoiling MY enjoyment I care quite a lot actually...........

Burn 'em.

I would say more people are interested in the game then people who aren't.

Although there is a lot of "kids" who just walk around not really caring about the game so whoever is paying for them to get in whether it be there parents or themselves are wasting money.

I went for a slash at half time in the Eddy End bogs. There was a group of about 10 of them stood in the middle of there chatting !! WTF is that all about. Its hard enough to get in and out of there as it is and why would you stand in 100 year old stinking bogs to socialise unless your name is George Michael ?

Quote of the week.

I suggest you go and find Hilton Park. You'll be looking a long time as it's not there any more. Idiot.

Mmmm immune from the credit crunch are they

I'll get my coat

Please visit Belle Vue, Odsal, the Jungle, Brewery Field, the Willows, Craven Park and the West terrace at Headingley. Then reconsider what you have said.

Well it was obviously there at one point because I have been. Idiot.

Hilton Park was knocked down a few months ago and we are now in the new ground since our first friendly

I know that, hence why I said "it was there at one point".

And where would said pen be, Dave? Not underneath da bungalow, I hope! I ain't movin' for no one!

Build a pen and they will come my son.

And will they be educated in abuse by Syddles?















By abuse, I am of course referring to shouting obscenities at opposition players, and not Syd being a peado.
