Taken from the Batley totalrl.com forum....

The 'unsavoury incident' was totally blown out of all proportion. Rowley & his minder were sat amongst the Batley supporters in the Kirkwood Hospice stand, and following another inept refereeing display comments were exchanged to the effect that in closely competitive games with the Wolfpack, only one team will get the marginal, and also the not so marginal decisions by the officials. This frustration and winding up came to a head when Rowley, who has history with Batley, was walking back to the players entrance 5 minutes before the end of the game, and was confronted by an angry elderly supporter in a Batley shirt who had followed him out. Handbags were exchanged , with Rowley pulling his earpiece out and squaring up to the elderly supporter, along with his 'minder'. Not exactly the way a head coach of a potential super league team should behave, with all their attendant hype.

So the poster believes that the incident was blown out of all proportion, justifies his claim and then, seemingly, blows it out of all proportion.

Which one of him is to be believed?

Is that a Handel Sarabande that reaches Bongser's thick ear?

If someone pushes you, you retaliate. The fan should be banned for the season, if not a couple, as this is not acceptable in our game.

Re: Rowley fighting : Mon Apr 09, 2018 7:41 am  

He was pushed after squaring up to an old man I assume his son pushed him
No mention of the Toronto supporter who punched this lad then
Rowley conduct was very questionable and his minders

The fan is an obvious bad loser . Maybe he should take up knitting

I didn't see the Rowley incident either Did You? Thought not-so because neither of us saw both incidents they did not happen-is that what your saying?

This is where it will all fall apart when the pressure is on like we saw in 2015/16 PR has a very poor record of dealing with pressure situations, cmon an elderly bloke pushes you, you walk away and let your 'minder' deal with it. Up to now TW are getting everything from the refs, that will change as we saw in 2015 when the slowing down and niggles get penalised
