Mine was always Hull FC, good set of fans always had great banter with them home and away, don't travel away so much these days. The 2 clubs have a good association via the Ste Prescott Foundation.

No we haven't at all from what i've seen about 3 people have done that. I've slated our fans as have loads of others, not all wire fans are like this at all but every wire basher that has suddenly crawl out from behind the sofa make out like every wire fan is scum and violent just because a few of our turd fans got seen on TV because of a supposed incident made them respond way over the Top. Hull have caused more trouble at the HJ then any other fans i've seen yet nothing gets said because it wasn't seen on TV so apparently it doesn't happen.
I've seen a saints fan jump out of a car and Knock a lad out who was just walking home with his girlfriend, i've seen Wigan fans kick of and smash cars after a game, i've seen salford fans start fights and gangs of Hull fans literally roaming in gangs starting fights. I've seen Castleford fans attack a man who was with his young kids and wife. Do i think all of their clubs fans are the same...no not at all. Every single clubs has these types of bellend supporters but because everybody is jumping on the warrington witch hunt bandwagon we suddenly have the worst fans in the world
I have no defense what so ever for our fans and think they're an absolute disgrace and hope they get lifetime bans, as they have made us look like utter Sh!te and a disgrace

Well the bus we go on to the HJ half of us have Zimmer frames, and we leave our side of the stadium straight back on the bus, Hull fans roaming in gangs, is probably a figment of your imagination, as for causing the most trouble, give over, we like Warry have a section of idiots who can’t handle their pop, it’s no use casting accusations which can not be substantiated. You have a problem, your not alone, deal with it.

The Warrington end at Wembley is not selling well.

same here always a good crack with the Wire lot, never had any issue with them, tho there does seem to be an element of young lads who seemed hell bent on goading giants fans recently which is a shame as they were never there before

Re: Warrington Fans : Sat Aug 10, 2019 4:59 pm  

First of all, I'm not justifying the minority of Wire fans' misbehaviour in any way. Like most Wire fans, we're all quite ashamed that those people climbing up were representing our club as supporters.

Nothing's quite black and white though (no reference to Hull!). My Dad has just returned from France after watching the game. He's 68 and always gives honest, trustworthy opinions of things. He was 30m away, but had a reasonable view of events unfolding, not the best, but nevertheless valid. He said that some of the Catalan fans in the VIP area had started to throw glass bottles and glasses at the Wire fans. One of these hit a kid and it went off from then.

There's no excuse for the scenes we saw, but without making excuses, some of you may understand why it kicked off. Its not black and white. Like most things, it takes two to tango (pardon the pun). So far, from reports from friends who went, the Catalan fans played more than a part in causing this. Also, Ben Pomeroy has been mentioned by a few- I won't say anymore!- (The post match investigation will reveal...!)

That said, those fans climbing up should be identified and punished. It's genuinely an embarrassment to me as a Wire fan and most others who are descent, respecting fans like most of you. I would like to think that most other fans have a nice experience with our fans, as I do with you if I have the pleasure to meet you in the pub before or after games. A few years back when we played Cats at Widnes in the cc semi-final, the whole stand of Wire fans stood up and clapped when the few Catalans fans made their arrival. Nice one to the previous Hudds poster as well- our friendship and respect certainly goes the other way.

We only sold 7000 last year according to some! Most wire fans buy straight from the rfl. We will take 20,000(despite the repetitive nature of it these days!!)don't worry.

They'll be loads of Wire fans as always. Even v Cats we brought a shed load. The largest CC final attendance at the new Wembley is Wire v Leeds. Not to mention 1954! - we'll be sound as a pound.
