Really not making excuses for him here, but he is still only a kid himself.
Wayne Rooney, anyone??
Sams rise to prominance has been nothing short of meteoric, and it's gonna take a while before he learns his place as a 'role-model'.
I'm sure the backroom mentors are working on it as we speak though.
Anyway, few idiots apart - Massive respect to the HKR fans.
Best bunch we've had at the JJB for ages.

No..Grow up.

Fair enough if you did - still amazed you could hear anything, your lot were making such a bloody racket all night!

Either way, you're right he's still a young lad and he was probably just annoyed at being the target of objects from the crowd (and plenty of abuse, but I think he's getting used to that!). Can't blame him for expressing his feelings but I take your point.

I'm sure he'd be the first to admit anything he said was aimed at the very small minority and not the majority of superb fans you brought.

Getting a bit cosy, this Wigan-KR love in...

Forgive me for asking...but why were you sniffing a bog brush to start with and what did you hope to gain from doing so?

Heat of the moment

Hull KR fans (yes only a section but still) shouting WANK3R WANK3R WANK3R at him.

Trying to hit him with coins, lighter etc

Im sure next time he might turn round and ask if anyone wants a cuppa anyway.

I'm not defending him if this is true but I would like to point out that the Wigan players were having things thrown at them and the 'scum' comment, if true was, in all probability, aimed at those responsible. If that was the case I find it hard to disagree to be honest and is no different than what fans from both Wigan and HKR are saying about those responsible. You could argue that he is a professional sportsman and should rise above it and, whilst I'm inclined to agree if the provocation is banter, I don't think the same argument applies to when you're the target for missiles! I have to say that I, like most on here, really like the HKR fans as I've said previously and that hasn't changed because of these incidents. All fans have their share of idiots to deal with. However, if you're asking if I think people who throw things are 'scum' then I'm afraid the answer is a resounding "yes!"
