My problem is you do make assumptions based on no evidence, the classic being tarring all football fans as hooligans based completely on nothing! Perhaps all Muslims are suicide bombers in your book?
As for swiping at you, kettle and pot!!!
Do you, and I have never said that all football fans are hooligans, only that whenever there is a hooligan type incident at a big Rugby League game, more often than not, it could involve football supporters who do turn up on these occasions.
As for the last comment, I have enough sense to know that not all Muslims are not suicide bombers, so why imply that?
As for swiping, was there any need on your part to even question my information about football clubs being paired when others either accepted it as true or not?
Why is it that ever since I give a opinion that football supporters could have been involved in the trouble at the Grand Final, you have jumped in every time I have said anything to do with football?
Begs the question, are you a football supporter to get so intense about what others say about football supporters and the hooligan side of that game?
I go watching football and rugby league, draw what you like from that! But when you step out of line with unsubstantiated comments like the one you made after the GF do you not think you should be brought to task?
As for sniping, you never miss an opportunity to have a dig do you!?!

When Bolton are at home, the Latic's are away and vice versa unless like yesterday when both were at home due to Bolton being in a home cup tie.
Actually, Bolton used to be paired with Bury until the Latic's got into the big time. Bury, I think are now paired with the mighty Accrington Stanley.
Is that so? Or is it just assumption? Can you provide some evidence of what you've stated?
For the record Bury and Bolton still play at home different weeks.
Should be interesting next year when Bury, Bolton and Wigan are in the same division.
Look at the football league fixtures on two successive weekends and you perhaps understand and learn, Bolton and Bury do indeed play as you suggest, but the clubs they are paired up with are away.
No different with the Liverpool and Manchester clubs.
Perhaps, if you spent less time swiping at me about assumptions, you could spend some time learning about how things work!
Whilst accepting your knowledge of Policing at matches far exceeds mine. I do wonder why two clubs from separate boroughs are matched together?
I can fully understand Liverpool and Everton and City and United etc etc but Latics and Wanderers that stretches the credibility a little that the Police couldn't cope with Wigan and Bolton at the same time

Take a look at the league fixtures each weekend over a two week period and you will see what I mean. In fact it may interest you to know that some of the stewards of both clubs sometime double up at both the DW and Macron and if there is a situation where both teams are at home in mid week games, one is played on a Tuesday night and the other on the Wednesday night for ovious reasons and it has nothing to do with policing.
I know someone who lives in Blackrod who sometimes watches Bolton at home on one weekend and the following weekend watches the Latics depending on who each club is playing. His only problem occurs when both are at home as was the case last Saturday due to Bolton being at home in a cup tie and then if going to a game has to make a decision on which game to watch.
Judging by the lack of replies from most other posters, it would appear that they understand what I had said about clubs being paired.

Perhaps people aren't that bothered about replying to your hijacking of this thread as it has now gone way off topic!!
Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan
