Ian, the issue isn't about being afraid or the odd moron wanting trouble. The whole ethos surrounding RL is the atmosphere of the family game. If I wanted to go to a match and wonder whether to wear my teams colours, be looking over my shoulder or wondering if my car would be in one piece after the game I would watch Halifax Town!

Fair enough that's why i go to both and you no longer do...

Cmon Pete ,I think you are doing the Fev club and Fev fans a big injustice,you make it sound like Hannibal Lector ,Freddy Krueger, and Jason Vorhees, are Fev season ticket holders every club has its troublemakers,but don't judge all fans the same,Fev have Fev Grinder,Robin,Gingdong,Sidnee,and Gaz from the Lagoon Bar all great blokes,I always try to visit the Lagoon Bar it's a good place for banter,I wish I could be there on Saturday night as I think it will be a classic, very close neither team can afford to lose.UP THE FAX.

The fact that the poster feels the need to ask the question says a lot about some of your 'supporters', as does the tone of your reply. POR is the one ground in RL that I and many other Fax fans won't go to, and that's a shame not only for ourselves in missing the game, but for all the genuine rugby pepple at Featherstone.

For gods sake man, no one will bother you what do you think we are????

To be fair gingdong you have been guilty on many occasions of posting on here which hasn't endured you to some.
Me? I believe Colin in that you are a No 9 who has opened too many doors with your head.
He says you are armless(sic)

What I don't subscribe is to the naïvety of people who say "I'm not going there" " I would worry about my car" etc, etc.
What they really mean is I want to make a statement, no matter how stupid I will look. (Ala DR)
And then they go on to say "it's a shame for true Rugby League supporters"
Don't they think Fax would like a big support?
Yes at times it has been hairy, but if you feel intimidated, laugh it off, I have been to every away game at Fev for many years.
I felt more intimidated at Donny this year for the double header, some Bullsheits came and sat next to us during our game and were so offensive that I was ready to smash one or two of them, until I saw the size of one of them. God she was big, mind you all Shebullets are!

As I have said I am struggling to make this game, but all the moronic comments coming from Fax "supporters" are making me trying very hard to alter arrangements.
See you all there?
I hope!

Re: Featherstone : Thu Jun 04, 2015 8:31 pm  

Having read this topic and seeing both sides I would like to add my personal experience of Fev incidents that have made my mind up on this topic. In the 70's there was a culture of fans charging all the way around stadiums called 'steam rolling' This happened at Thrum Hall scoreboard end , on the bottom stand to scratching shed. As a child I was stood there with my Dad and both of us were physically battered. In the 80's I was spat on at post Office Road along with many other Fax supporters. In the 90's I took my young son to Post office Road and we were verbally abused outside the ground for wearing Fax colours. But the most telling thing for me was being in that Warrington Coach park stood over David Singer laid on the floor in a pool of blood-unsure if he was still alive after a game of rugby. Our coach driver witnessed the incident, the coach that these Fev 'fans' got on, he told the police yet years after these people are still at large whilst David Singer's life , and that of his parents, has changed forever.I am sure that all clubs have idiots, including ours, but just too many incidents with this club for me and Mrs LTD to run the risk of being involved in yet another.I sincerely hope that the game is a great one on Saturday and everybody behaves themselves.

I know we are all wanting to move on and I did boycott POR for a while myself but that's a bit strong calling people 'moronic' for raising concerns over going to Fev, I for one will NEVER forget those 2 games and the incidents when it kicked off, I was next to the fighting at the NRC semi final trying to plead sanity with my fellow Fax fans who were attacked reminding them of Dave and it was the worst violence I have ever seen at a RL game so this won't go away very easily plus getting called a w*nker by a Fev fan when I said to him they should sort out their fans when walking to the supporters coach afterwards which just finished the night off!
Lets hope all goes well but until we come away from Fev after a win without any trouble the jury is still out for me, so far we have lost most games since!
