Your spot on - was good to meet halifaxjohn today - told you it was going to be closer than some thought it was going to be. And great to see MM given the circumstances - isnt your lad a bigun - hope to meet up with you again.

What a great advert for rugby - hope all our games this year are as good

As always Dave, great to see you as well. BOTH my boys are "bigun's" we'd make a decent front row ha ha ha.
It actually blew the cobwebs off for me & my boys to get out and forget about things for a while.
I've just been texting Mark & RFF to see what their opinions are of where Fev fans were situated today in the stadium, cos I thought it added to the atmosphere & the players fed off that atmosphere I.M.O.
I do believe that we're preaching to the educated re: segregation etc, but we sensible people can influence the others I feel.

To be honest i enjoyed being together with my own supporters as im sure the fax fans were with theres rather than mixed together

Away days are always much better, i dont know why you dont do it for all games in giving away support that stand

I think giving the away team there own stand makes for a great atmosphere as today did (although the game helped ) When Fev build the new stands I hope they make one for the away supporters it keeps them all together and generates more noise as long as its the same price like Fax did today this happens at S/L clubs Just like to say well done both teams great game and looking at your team maybe you don't need some of your senior players because the ones on the field did well today although I'm not convinced it was as weak as some were making out

A good idea for the teams that have decent away support, but not financially viable otherwise, given the extra stewarding and turnstile operators you need (regardless of whether folk behave themselves).

[quote="Greg Florimos Boots"]Talk about taking a quote out of context. Please can you point out where i say the only club with scrotes is Fev? We have plenty of them ourselves, but luckily for us the main of it is just teenagers been boystrous and need putting in their places occasinally.

Im actually saying the segregation of the two sets of fans sends out the wrong message, but my thoughts on this subject are well known and the club know them too, its just a shame that neither club really took them on board, whether thats down to money or down to ignorance is another thing.[/quote]

The majority of Fev fans who are no problem what so ever end up sat in the skircoat and any scrotes who want to cause trouble just come over wearing no colours and cause trouble just the same.

The 'just come over wearing no colours' directly points the finger at our fans without any reference to yours but we are probably in agreement on the solution so lets not split hairs. Today's game should go a long way to building bridges and hopefully a few more matches like that and we will be back to the old days of mutual respect between fans .

And some of the clowns outside the corporate area in Fev shirt & ties goading Fax fans in the East stand, Elland players, or should I say Ex-Elland players.

IF that is true then you need to make a formal complaint to the club and if they find out who it was he/she should be dealt with.

Im disgusted then if thats the case, given in our last home game programme Mark Campell made a lot about people bringing our club into disrepute (traitors) I think he called them. It is even scarier if that crap is coming from our dugout
