More likely it was because Bradford won.

Well unfortunately I couldn't make the game last year so I wasn't aware it is tolerated at Belle Vue. It's not something I want my little lad exposed to, so I'll think twice about bringing him again if that is the case.

Reassuring that most posters on here were similarly offended and I hope you can encourage your club to take action as it isn't a fair reflection of your supporters overall.

Still don't know how you can take a hefty sized drum into the ground but, a bottle of pop is banned ???

Some say it adds atmosphere but, it was just annoying (and loud)

For the other home games in the qualifiers league surely the North Stand should be home supporters only.
As the middle 8 gets closer and it becomes even more of a "winner takes all" situation, the hostility will increase,
making things a little more fractious between the two sets of fans.

wakefield fans behaving badly?? surely not?

Thanks for the imput meaty, a really positive post, just out of interest were those two questions or statements

Questions, it seems to be a big problem for WT controlling some unsavoury elements of their support.

I'm sure if Hudds any fans themselves people would ask similar questions.



In all seriousness, it needs stamping out, though how can the club be fined? Does anyone have any proof of racist chanting? I was stood in the east stand so couldn't hear it. It does beg the question though if Bradford had won would there be a fuss?

I thought the stewards got the segregation spot on yesterday lumping both sets of noisy idiots together in the North Stand leaving the decent viewing sites available for those who go to watch the match.

That's the problem when you get big groups of away fans in the North stand the majority of away fans should be directed to the western terrace like what usually happens. If you go into a stand where the more passionate home support stands flash points will happen at any ground. The club relaxed the away fan policy yesterday & some Bradford are moaning about some chanting if they were on the western terrace it wouldn't have occurred. I saw it as some Bradford having a go at Wakefield fans calling them inbreds & Wakefield responded about their population, cas is a few miles away so I don't know what Bradford fans were thinking. Great result yesterday and overall great atmosphere in the North stand. TRINITY FOREVER

to be honest you can't condone any kind of racist chanting just because the away fans were in the same stand, whether Bradford fans were in the western terrace or not, racist chanting has no place in a rugby league ground, neither has assaulting opposition supporters or stewards!

Seemed more like a couple of statements tbh, more like in the vein of this one, as a matter of interest what's your take on vandalism?

I can't see what all the fuss is about - they came, they sang, they left with their tails between their legs... couldn't have worked out better. There was no need for segregation.

I didn't hear any racist chanting, but if it happened, shame on those who joined in; that's unacceptable.

And we need a drum!

vandals should be shot!
why,do wakey fans condone them too?

Sadly it did happen and it made me cringe with embarrassment. The idiots need rooting out.

And no we don't need a drum!

It gets people singing, and creates a brilliant atmosphere!

We don't have any, just a barbers shop choir apparently, without a drum.

If we're getting a drum (I'd prefer not to) can we not get a 'hum' one as I've had enough of that to last a lifetime!

Equally can we avoid the 'dol' version as well

Sorry Bren but I strongly disagree with both of those points.

Lots of our fans sing without an instrument. All it needs is someone in a group to initiate a song. We have plenty of volunteers.

You don't need a drum for an atmosphere. Last time I was at Huddersfield (sorry meast but it's true) they were banging away on the drum but it didn't rouse up the crowd to start singing or add to the atmosphere.

If anything the atmosphere it does create is blinking annoying. Just like that band Leeds have.

I'd be in favour of banning any instruments being brought into Belle Vue. Virtually everything else is banned for less of a reason.

If instruments continue to be brought in I fear it could at some point become a cause of conflict. All it needs is a drunken idiot who can't tolerate a drum/trumpet anymore and then the said instrument is put beyond use.

Bren, please, no drum (unless it's down the end of the Western Terrace) away from the home support

They usually bring the drum out at Huddersfield when they've signed another one of our players.

What he said.

havent you got a female/male companion to be feeling up instead of pleasuring yourself over a forum?

Instruments/ tools?
Every club has one or the other!

The Bulls have always packed out that stand from day one of super league. Never really cause any bother so whats the problem?
