Rach , ive already said I don't swear at games , nor do I find the need to and I agree its not acceptable ,I don't go in North Stand so I cant comment about your hearing the swearing , and as you was in the North Stand neither could you hear the insults and swearing aimed at Sam Barlow by Keighley fans , obviously no one is apologizing for them because there was only 4 Keighley in the Stand near me and it was THEM doing it .

Ive NOT seen the "Cougar Crawl ", for a while .

.

Col , im a Clown , not an English Teacher ,





its been said before about my English , but I am from Napoli

.

Shame I didn't see Sam in ASDA earlier he would have laughed at how upset you are over people giving him abuse. No doubt about it.

You are also a conveniently deaf and blind clown when it suits.

For your info im neither ,nor am I defending or condemning Leigh fans ,I know what I heard and know what I say in the West Stand last night and it wasn't Leigh fans at fault.I don't pander to anyone I never have its not my nature ,anyone who knows me will tell you that .I also don't lecture anyone if folk don't agree with me "Tough ", that's their problem .

Charlie we know about the four fans in the West Stand because you continue to tell us about them, that bit is a given but you are the leader of the "Leigh fans don't do things like that" and it smacks of double standards.
Have a go at a reply without mentioning the four fans in the West Stand.

I dont comment much on here anymore, mainly because of tools like you, if you read Charlies posts you will see he said he cant comment on north stand because he was in west stand and couldnt hear it, he hasnt said it didnt happen nor has he defended them. Reading your boring pointless posts is tiring. Imho you just dont like Charlie, also imho you are a total pillock.

Reffy please read my previous 2 posts on this thread ,Verbatum

As for being a Leader ?

Im not even the leader in our house



.

Thank you , I rest my case .

.

Bless, I bet your posts are really missed. did you ever comment on an actual topic?

As to not liking Charlie, I don't know the chap but he is obviously a very passionate fan , he is an impressive contributor to the forum and I get a lot of pleasure out of his posts however when I don't agree I will say so.
Only 'tool' and 'pillock', I must try harder.

I think it's about time some people relies this is a rugby match we are going to not Sunday morning hymns I agree children should not have to listen to bad language that's why we have a family stand just wait till we are playing the hull teams they will make us look like saints..

So its a good idea to sing songs about peadophiles?

If it continues then sooner or later the recipients of this ' fun ' will decide to reply with something equaly nasty, wont that be great?

Reffy , as you say we don't know each other , but you ARE entitled to your opinion ,and I fully respect that , I never expect anyone to agree with mine but it is how I see things that's all ,some folk find me irritating

because im a bit of a wind up merchant , Im not trying to be anything but lighthearted as I think Rugby as with life is sometimes taken to seriously .As for being Passionate





Mrs Caroli might disagree there

but I am a Leigh fan no doubt .

Personally Im not keen on the insults and name calling on the Forum ,I don't lose any sleep over folk having a pop at me though , as I laugh at myself a lot .It used to be hard being a Leyther but this season it has been very easy , my message to ALL posters is always have an opinion ,and stick by it

, I hope ive not included to many commas, and ive not mentioned Keighley fans , Marwan , or Salfordlad for a few posts now .

I have been to see the new Planet of the Apes film tonight , and can thoroughly recommend it , some of the scenes were like a Fev home game .

I agree 100% this particular chant is not funny and I find it offensive, I don't think Lancastrians would like similar chants about Myra Hindley ,Dr Shipman etc.

I think the Cougar fans held their own but it could of turned nasty and will do one match when a few oppsition nut cases turn up.Their has always been odd bits of trouble and in the 70s more than odd bits anyone remember the mass brawls at the bus station when we played Wigan and we don't want to return to that.Rugby League has always had fans standing shoulder to shoulder and always had arguments and raised voices and thats fine but chants full of expletives deliberatly aimed at a few fans who paid a lot of money to visit the LSV is not on and I hope the club tries and do something about it.

Cheers mate , mucho appreciated

Sadly there is very little we can realistically do about it, apart from urging our fans to use a little common sense when starting the chants.

The atmosphere generated on Saturday evening was as good as anything we've had this year at home and really lifted the lads.

We do look at the different topics on here and do try and action some of the decent suggestions that come up on here where it is both beneficial and financially viable.

Fair comment and the atmosphere was good but maybe the players or Paul could let it be known that they love the support but cool off on some of the chants, remember RL is a family sport and the great work the club is doing with kids underlines this.

I'm always proud to support Leigh but not felt as good for ages a lot due to great work being done behind the scenes.

Great Stuff!

We've tried to make our Social Media Outlets (Twitter, Facebook, Leythers, LeighLife) a lot more 'fan friendly' this year. Not just feeding you news but actually interacting with you all, getting your views and having a little fun too! I'm biased but we think its going really well. We are by far and away the most followed club on Twitter in the Championships, Facebook is a fantastic too! If everyone who is a 'fan' of the club on these two forums alone came to the match we'd have near enough 11k week in week out, which would be great!

We are always open to suggestions too!

The longer this behaviour is tolerated the longer it will go on and potentially deteriorate with bigger attendances.
Hoping it will go away clearly does not work.
More pro-active stewarding would seem to be an obvious option.
The use of hand held digital cameras can also be used to good effect.
It is clearly for the club and the LSV to decide the best way to proceed - there is a whole range of options that can be used to reinforce the stewarding actions.

Well, taking advantage of that offer, it would be fantastic if someone could sort out the PA system, for once and for all. It's fine when the music is being played, but once the announcer takes over to read out the teams, it goes to pieces. (at least in the West Stand) I'm sure our sponsors would welcome hearing their names read out in full, and not just fragments of them. (e.g. "Try -or th- --ntur---s score- by Bob -eswick, -pons---- by As- Pl--- -ffice -uppl--"icon_wink.gif

We think the problem is more the Microphones Alan and their proximity to the 'box' which transmits the signal.

We agree its a pain too and are looking into it. Sometimes its as simple as the batteries have gone, other times it seems the signal is being blocked.

Not a good answer, how about asking the LSV management to put a bomb under the stewards backsides and tell them that their job isn't to watch the game, chat to each other or bully easy targets but to actually do a bit of gobbin control.

Being sad doesn't address the problem.

We don't control the Stewards I'm afraid, which is why we say there is little we can realistically do about it.

We have regular meetings with LSV Management regarding lots of issues at the stadium including the Stewarding.

We will however continue to pass on your comments during these meetings.
