Sadly, we have our own collection of "numbskulls", who (if it's true) have now started to watch normal league games.
They only used to turn up for semi-finals/finals, saying "yeah, I've suppor'ed Wire for twenny yeuz", when all they've turned up for, is to cause trouble.

Plebs.

lefty on the basis that the source is "via a steward who my friend knows" I would suggest this should be taken with a large pinch of salt.

More a huge bucketful, rather than a pinch.

But, based on the amount of our "new found fans" since our move to the HJ, I'd say a great amount of our speccies turn up, and RL is the last thing on their mind. They'd rather
text
have their backs turned to the action
be in the queue for "a two-pinter"
try to impress a member of the opposite sex
or, if it's to be believed...fight
