What was that all about? : Sat Jun 13, 2015 10:22 am
Just after Saints scored (either the Swift or Turner tries) a Saints fan ran from his seat in the South Stand from about 15 rows back to the South West Corner. A Wigan fan who was stood just in front of me (about 10 meters in from the toucline on the West Stand ran to the same corner, a few verbals and a few punches. I would say both these men were probably late forties early fifties. In all my time of watching rugby I've never seen anything like it, absolute stupidity. The police and stewards escorted them both out of the ground, I hope they locked them up and they get banned for life.Just to show the other side of supporters. I arrived at about 5:50 and the last car parking space had gone (just over the bridge towards Jackson Street.) A Saints fan saw me and kindly moved his car about a yard forward to allow me to get in.
