So - where do we go from here??

I REFUSE to have this sheeite stop me from engaging with any bug_ger else who likes rugby League! They can bol_lox! This is my sport. This is my enjoyment. I enjoy craic with almost everyone who watches our game.
Those that want to kick off regardless off which teams colours they wear can just (I'll use a different word the the verbage of choice) - SOD OFF!!!

i just hope that there is evidence to support the prosecution of whoever was involved last night - i feel sad on how the reputation of a family sport is being dragged in the gutter and stopping me from taking my family to matches for safety sake

I said after the league game don't let a few idiots stop you going to the semi. After what I saw last night even I doubt I'll be going there again. It WAS the worst violence I have seen at a game of rugby. You could see it coming as soon as the whistle blew. As our players were coming towards us I looked to the right as I was behind the posts with not many fax fans to my right. Most were stood to the left of the posts. I clearly saw a huge group of lads and men building up and said something was going to happen.

It was very intimidateing and only a a couple of stewards were there. They DID start it, leatherd a couple of fax fans who then retaliated. I got to the car and onto post office road and it was worse. Only one police van at the time and I personally saw around twenty or thirty of em attack the lads that were behind the posts.

They chased em down the lane and one bald idiot started swinging again. It's a disgrace and the rfl need to act now

Worst case scenario was a golden point win. I said before the game if by some fluke we win again by golden point expect it to kick off. Was no surprise it did. Soon as the final whistle went they were at it behind us on the terracing, thought I was an extra in This Is England 2.

One of the fev fans "term used loosely" was heard to be saying we'll do the same to you that we did to the other fax fan.

First half they were a few fev fans stood in the fax end and some light banter turned insulting and I did notice a few of them body checking pepole as they walked past.

I'm not surprised some fax fans hit back when faced with the situation I witnessed, what are they supposed to do, stand there and get hit.

Also in a way I'm glad lats night happaned (as long as no serious injuries occured) as it just confirms and justifies what we all thought and knew.

Oy, Rain Man - you're missing the point. There's a common denominator - it's called Featherstone Rovers. Like all good alcoholics, you're in denial and you're never going to understand the issues until you realize that your club has a hooligan problem. Sticking your fingers in your ears and going "la la la la la" is not helping your cause on here pal.

Your club needs to liaise with the police, the stewards and the RFL to start trying to work out a solution.

The only people arrested last night by West Yorkshire police were wearing Fax tops, you may not like it and can abuse the messenger by that is the facts

Of course Gingbong, you was there personally to witness every single arrest?

Why dont you take your earlier advice and wait to see what comes out of the arrests / convictions. To keep posting on this issue is only adding fuel to an already raging fire, but then again you cant do it on your own forum, so you come on here to wind us up.

Well its not going to work. I believe the problem to be between a set of Fev fans and a set of Fax fans, who have had to much of the falling down juice.

Lets wait and see, theres a good boy.

I came to game straight from work. I changed outside the ground before kick off. I was so concerned while sat in my car that I removed my fax shirt and put my work shirt back on. No way to be. It was an unreal sight sat there on the corner of the main road watching six police cars pile in and group after group, 'women' too, if that's what you'd call em, taunting and abusing anyone in a fax shirt. As for the lads that got jumped, they were walking wounded with blood on their shirts but at least they were walking. And YES they were walking AWAY when chased

Or maybe of course i, like dozens of other fax fans are just lying and causing trouble.

Some Fev fans need to wake up and smell the coffee. I saw what happened, as did the fax fans in the car in front. Good thinking from the passenger, he got pictures on his phone and showed the police.

If therefore only fax fans got arrested, I'm moving to Libya, maybe we will get more fairly treated there. I am annoyed and upset by last night

I aint trying to wind any fka up pal, just know what i saw, i walked behind it all with my wife and son trying to keep them away from it all and i saw 2 groups of lads battling away, both parties well up for it, so it is a bit annoying when i then read it was all one sided, it wasnt and then walked by a cop van full of banged up fax fans, yes Rovers have a problem, but so do fax

But surely you put two and two together and make a couple of dozen.

Your advice earlier was to wait and see what comes out of it, I suggest you take your own advice.

What you have to realise is that not everyone in halifax thinks every fev fan is scum.
