Why should Featherstone have to arrange a safe journey in and away from the ground.



Is it just for Halifax or do you have to do it for every visiting team.



I can think of no other ground I have ever visited (for Rugby League) where "a safe journey in and away from the ground" has ever been in doubt.









Incidentally, I will be there. I would like to park in the club car park, i.e not be segregated, I will have a couple of beers in the upstairs bar and I will stand behind the posts in both halves. If and when I am abused by Featherstone supporters I will ignore it. (as I did at the Championship game) I would like to leave by whatever exit I like and return to my car peaceably. Not asking too much I hope.



See you there.

I assume you were stood up with the Fev fans , so only as blinded as you



To tell the truth segregating the fans and their vehicles isn't the answer , it is integration before , during and after the match by the likes of your good self and the many good decent Fev fans that we need , we are watching RL at Post Office Road , not football at Elland Road , although personally I think that is part of the problem



I have always enjoyed my visits to Featherstone and want them to continue just as I am sure your club wants and needs away support to attend

How is it overstepping the mark PAL

it is a typical case of double standards the same double standards that s the majority of us right off. You are assuming the attacker was a Fev fan with good reason but there is no proof otherwise there would of been a conviction. But we are slated for assuming with good reason the fire starter was a Fax fan.

Incidently the law of the land sees arson as just as serious an offence as assault, thats not me saying it either its the law of the land

You'd think by reading some of these posts that everything was calm at the Final before the stand evacuation. What tosh!! The stewards and police were already very busy in the Fev stand prior to our game even kicking off - no sign of activity though in the Fax stand behind the posts. And as for fax fans taunting as they went onto the pitch, yes there were some waving and I am sure gesturing, but as soon as the Fax fans started to evacuate there had already been a surge of Fev fans down the steps ready to confront them, not just one or two.



I also have friends that were let into a pub via the back door once the landlord was happy they were fax fans, as he'd had had to shut up due to the aggressive behaviour of the Fev fans.



Sorry, but I have been watching HRLFC for almost 40 years now, and during that time there have been 3 or 4 intimidating grounds, where you would hide your scarf approaching the ground etc. - Fev was always one of them - and I'm afraid still is.



Nobody is saying all the fans are like this, but if others are happy to condone or ignore then no wonder Fevs fans are often tarnished by other supporters.

I must of imagined all the stewards dragging Fax fans out of the stand in the 2nd half, but i guess it was just Fax banter want it.

yes because they refused to sit in the seating when they payed to stand i beleive

Yes, just a bit of banter want it

Whenever I've been to games at POR I've always found it to be friendly and welcoming.... I don't dispute the club have a few idiots at big games but it never usually esculates any further than showing off, shouting and swearing!!!



Let's stop all this bickering between clubs and get behind the Cooperative Championship and show SL fans what they're missing!

I said i aint butting into these silly arguments anymore, I was actually 3 rows away from Fax Banter at the back of the sticks and gods honest truth it wasn't stewards or Fax fans, The fax fans were shouting, stood up and excited, it was the police that came over aggresive to those fans ( about 6 or 7 with a flag ) told them to sit down etc, the fans carried on singing and shouting, ignored the police, so the police grabbed them and took a few of them out, the rest then sat down.



Now that incident was nothing to do with 2 clubs, just halifax fans, that could have been at any other ground at any other day, They should have done as they were asked and sat down but to be fair to them they were only young and not one of them raised their fists in anger, they did say a few expletives when being removed but that was as far as it went.

I reckon Fax fans should stay away on thursday, Fev are going to win this match comfortably!

So you don't need the revenue?



Without us you wouldn't have 1200.
