How can you blame leeds united for that you clown, as a matter of fact i was at vicarage road today with a few thousand other leeds united fans and saw no trouble so how you can blame a [ufootball[/u club for something that happened at a=#FF0000 rugby game is beyond me. Your the type of person who thinks all football fans are inferior people to rugby fans. Has a football game in the recent history been abandoned due to crowd trouble like a rugby league game? Now you need to open your eyes because rugby crowds do have idiots and trouble does happen, i hope the authorities aren't like you and try and brush it under the carpet as 'football fans doing'. Open your eyes and get real.

Seem to remember problem with Leeds Fans when they had there first grand final win, there was also the problem with Hull fans many years ago......seem to be a common denominator here.

Me and bro were in the Leeds end and some fans were bit worked up about some Saints fans cheering on Warrington but it never progressed to any trouble.

We got our tickets ages ago from RFL website and had no idea what end we were gonna be in. Maybe the Leeds fans in the warrington end did the same thing.

Spoke to a safety steward the day after last years CC final and he said they'd had 73 ejections which was average (

) for rugby but still miles less than concerts or puffball..... 73 quite surprised me

That's been the norm for the past three years at Wembley.

Exactly, that type of thinking about football fans led to 96 peoples deaths at Hillsborough because that's exactly what South Yorkshire police thought. In fact can you imagine if the internet had been around when Hillsborough happened, within half an hour of the news breaking there would have been a 10 page thread on here with people bringing up Heysel and saying the Liverpool fans were scum, people always want to have their say before the facts come out.

There were loads of Leeds fans dotted around the Wire end and there was no trouble with them, just in that one pocket where it looked like some blokes were acting provocatively and throwing beer. Most people go as couples or families and are no bother, when you get groups of lads who are acting as though they are on a stag party then there's the potential for trouble, there were a few well meaning but completely off their heads Wire fans who were a bit annoying so I can imagine when they met their equivalents from Leeds in a bad mood there was the potential for a bit of handbags.

Always seems to be Leeds though....

So there's 85,217 fans, the majority probably having consumed a skin-full, including lots of 'big-chested' RL lads (the sort you see strutting around Wigan, St Helens, Warrington, and many other RL towns on a Saturday night), fans of dozens of different teams all sitting together, many hours to sink a load of beer and there's a couple of scuffles and 73 evictions?

Not a bad performance. We could do without the idiots looking to prove their manhood and playing up to their mates, but let's be grateful our sport can stage a huge event like this in such a manner.

Always bloody Wire though innit?!

Every time I go out on a night in town in Leeds, there's always s squaring up to each other, especially outside Oceana, Gatecrasher and Academy.

I reckon there must be an element of Leeds United fans who has got into the nightclubbing culture in Leeds! It won't be the students because they are too well bred to act up, I blame Leeds United fans!

wire fans fighting what a surprise not like them is it

The good people of our city are just a little bit spasmodic.

You plum


A handful of overly beveraged people were escorted from their seats after fists were thrown. A few Leeds and Warrington fans got a little excited and it was over before it started.

In the Wire end right near us we had Saints, Leeds, Wigan fans among others and got on with them. The Leeds fans were even shaking hands at full time and saying well done.

Our 4 tickets were on row 1 and row 2 right behind the sticks, so I couldn't see the trouble in the corner so just kept watching the game.

O

The same thought crossed my mind

It was mindless idiots

As a Leeds fan next to the screen at our end, we could hear the booing and see the brawl from probably 150 metres away. There seemed to be a lot get involved. Didnt it clear about 50 seats or so?

I wouldn't say anything after both sets of hull fans came to the brewery field in south wales last year and caused fights. You have quite a few disgraceful idiots, so i wouldn't slag off other teams fans if i were you

And 3 years ago in the grand final an amateur teams fans from the Hull area caused a mass brawl in the Saints end of OT.

Well....that's not bad going, 3 pages before it degenerated into a slanging match.

The usual suspects.

There are two main points:
1. The part about insisting on standing up struck me as something that Leeds United do. I've seen those two-celled half-wits do it. That's why I raised it.
2.Football fans are inferior to rugby fans, because they follow an inferior game, cry too much, and can only hunt in packs.

yea every team does but when you go to watch your team against wire all you get is abuse and people gauding you all the game in and out of the ground i remember not so long ago sharpen down pennies golf balls and beer bottles being hurld by wire fans so most sets of fans are angles compared to these lot not all wire fans i may add but alot of idoits

No problems with the Leeds fans today, a few Rhinos were in the wire end, and I didn't see any trouble involving them

The fight kicked off because a Wigan fan got a bit too excited, and a few equally as daft Warrington fans took him up.

There was a riot at a tube station apparantly. Leeds utd were playing down there too so i imagine it was them rather than the rugby lot.
It was hugely annoying as it took us on an hour odd detour after they shut the tube line

Typical Warrington fans, ganging up on one Wigan fan.
