Just a quick note but whoever the Salford fans were that decided to punch our fans, you're a disgrace to your own club, you got the win and we was singing and having a bit of fun, no need for the abuse that we received and then the physical violence. I understand it was a minority but honestly, absolutely no need, it's a family sport and that was no way to act.

Cheers.

I'm well aware of the problem fans we have at Salford. Indeed, they're one of a few reasons I don't attend as often as I once did. However, you may need to offer a little balance based on a tweet by 'Hull FC News':

"Some of our fans need to take a huge look at themselves I think drinking is the problem! , hope that @SalfordFaithful fan is okay!"

These sentiments can be applied to most clubs, I'm sure you agree?!

Re: Fighting : Sun Mar 01, 2015 8:57 pm  

I agree with what you are saying completely. Alcohol is a problem for some fans and it then gets mixed with adrenaline which doesn't help. As far as I'm aware it was the Salford fans that instigated the violence but I am not 100% sure, both sets of fans need to keep away from violence as it's a family sport with lots of kids around and we don't want them seeing it.

I would hope that CCTV is reviewed if the club is aware of it and they can then find out what exactly happened but I doubt it will happen.

Anyway, it was just a quick note and I hope it doesn't happen again when we next visit and vice versa when you visit us.

Was there any trouble in the hull end near the end of the game?

Re: Fighting : Sun Mar 01, 2015 10:00 pm  

There was a tiny bit of aggro between a couple of our fans but we split them up and they shook hands at the end, nothing that had any physicality involved.

It must be purely coincidental that every time Hull visit our ground it ends in fisticuffs...

Re: Fighting : Mon Mar 02, 2015 8:55 am  

Hull fans were throwing pints at the Salford players after they scored too. From all the things I have read, Hull fans came out of the ground causing trouble, when one Salford fan was injured that's when a few other Salford fans got involved and gave a couple of Hull fans a good hiding.

If you watch the highlights just after Junior Sau scored & the officials are walking away a pint pot of beer is thrown onto the pitch!

There was a brawl involving at least 20 people in the top right corner of your stand, lasted a good 5 minutes.
And there was a hull fan in the east stand seats in a blue coat, who also had a young kid with him, who was being very aggressive.
Im not saying Salford fans are angels, but lookna bit closer to home before slagging us off.

I know it shouldn't happen and it's the last thing our sport needs but which bright spark at the SMC decided to put the coach park right next to the home standing support?
