To be fare, those incidents were around 5 years ago, with the away fans causing most of the trouble.
There has been an increase in violence and general unpleasant behaviour at RL matces in recent seasons.
The problem is the RL establishment stick their heads in the ground and don't tackle the problem head on.
Rather it's written of as a 'football disease' and the likes of the Wigan Evening Post do a great job in keeping these incidents tucked away, if reported at all!
There haven't been any incidents to report though. There were a few kids throwing snowballs on Friday night, there were kids throwing snowballs into shop windows on Saturday that wasn't reported either. Kids were throwing snowballs at buses and people on Wed and Fri when it started snowing, it happens in a way it wasn't related to the result. It was just kids being kids.
So if there was no trouble or incidents then surely everyone thats just posted in this thread is lying? Or is this just another cover up? I think i've proved a point, and i think you've just

fraggle i think the spy needs to get his/her facts straight before they type such tripe, what i means is how can they class us rugby fans as hooligans. besides a few verbals thers no fighting like between footie fans.

Well that would mean that I've just turned back on what I've said too so that makes no sense.
I said there was no fighting at Salford as far as I saw, there were snowballs being thrown as there are when it snows wherever you are.
I haven't seen any fights at rugby recently so therefore there have been none to report in the post that's what I said, so why do you think there is a cover up?
Can you tell me where the other 'cover ups' have come from too that you mention? The fact still remains that there is less violence at a rugby game than at the footy and yes I have been to both.

I didn't say there had never been any trouble. I said recently there hasn't been. Will you quote me properly please!
