If you travel regularly to the away games you see it's the same mob causing the problems.
Standing at the away end at Cas for example and you just know beer will be thrown down on our own supporters when we score and its highly likely a flare will be used.
I guess the fines issued to Hull KR, Cas and Wire last week have just given all the clubs in the comp a hint that steps need to be taken.

The foul and abusive language I witness at leeds on Fri aim directly at Miller as he stood under the sticks was disgraceful. I was stood with my grandkids and it’s a good job I’m not 30 years younger or I may have been getting kicked out . I’m no snowflake I’ve heard it all in my years underground , but to target a player like that saddens me a lot not only for our club but how it’s classed as acceptable in today’s society.

Swearing a bit when frustrated, fine. Odd chant, fine. However at KR it was relentless! I had my 2 young kids with me and so did many sat around. When I asked a couple of the lads to not swear as much because of the kids, in a polite way may I add, the abuse hurled at me was apalling. Good on the club!

They will still be able to attend away matches though.

Hmm that's a good point.

I m not sure if that is the case, there’s a bit more to this story I suspect, we were sat very close to this and before the game started one individual was sneaking about and if it’s the same person he was fully expecting to be thrown out. The stewards had identified him (or some one else ) before the game had started.

So I suspect the club circulates images of anyone banned,

The smoke bomb actually at one point was actually at our feet. We actually commented at the time how glad we were that we hadn’t brought our grand son.

Given that one of the games biggest problems is the number of juniors (or lack thereof) that attend I actually think it’s a good thing if the game and the club clamp down on thuggish foulmouthed behaviour - there isn’t much point in saying that rugby league is a family sport when no adult in their right mind would take a juvenile to the game.

In terms of abusive language, the chanting has been getting worse over recent seasons, no question about that and at some point things need to change.
RL is the self proclaimed "family game" but, anyone with young kids must cringe every time they come to a game.
Let's be honest, it's not great.

It will be interesting to see whether any clap down on poor behaviour continues, either at Wakefield or at other grounds.

Well done for making a stand. You have to draw the line somewhere or this sort of thing becomes the acceptable norm. My own club has a few issues of it's own which it is trying to tackle. Seems to be a societal problem.

I’ll rephrase my question.

Have you ever had a brainless thought that you didn’t feel the need to share with the world?

I do hope that if there is trouble then the police use your postings on here to track you down. Just because we don’t know who you are doesn’t mean that the cops don’t. They will trace you in a heartbeat and it’s an offence to incite violence which is what you’ve just done, think on.
