From what i know fighting and remarks are around castleford every week, yet we here nothing of this.
Why is it so different at wakefield?

I think the we all hate ull chant was coming from frustration in the first half due to, a wrong decision from the ref, the stewards maybe and the hull fans moaning evertime we made a tackle or everytime we passed the ball there was a cry of forward and i could see many folk getting rather annoyed and joined in with that chant!

I would say 75% of the fans joined in with that and as its been sung alongside "you'll never catch a Cod" and "Sing when you're fishing" IMO is not meant in a nasty way and i doubt anyone from Hull would take it seriously or be offended by it.


The "only sing when your winning" got thrown back at us and is all part of the banter.

Correct AL all adds to the atmosphere as long as no-one gets carried away etc

Exactly, was a good atmosphere and the sing off with Hull fans was a laugh at times. I have had plenty of sing offs with other fans in pubs etc and its a good laugh and all chants are taking the right way.

As I have said the odd swear word I don't mind but when they keep coming out thats when it goes over the line.

As a club I think we have a very good and sometimes great away following and hope that continues.

Good sensible post!

Think people have heard what apparently went on even I have heard things that I did not see happen.

Everyone uses the odd F word at games and so on, but someone sat in front of me had 2 young children with them and moved because he said the language at times was not appropriate, fair enough! as I could see there point.

Don't not go to the games everyone is welcome, but next time if stewards tell you something then listen other wise the same will prob happen again and let's face it we don't want that to happen.

I have had my fair experience with stewards but quick chat with them and then soon walked away and left us be

personally I haven't a problem if they use the odd swear word or two, I can also cope with the repetitive songs, but they don't seem to direct they voices to the team, they choose to stand facing other supporters goading them into retaliation,
I fear that it will in turn get someone involved that has nothing to do with them .
so be loud and proud but for the clubs sake if you care use some common sense

Just a case of beer in, wits out - these kids should stick to shandy

Again beer and segregation cause these problems for me. Without a beer inside them and mingled in with the home fans they wouldn't dare give out foul mouthed abuse/hand signals to opposition supporters.

I normally have a word with the lads regarding the relentless Swearing in the songs & most of the time they listen & calm it down, But i don't know how many more times i can keep carrying on telling them untill the penny is going to drop.

The young lads help bring a very good atmosphere to the away games & i would not want that to stop,So from now on i will undertake to talking to the lads before our matches & make them relies the harm they could be doing to our reputation

Top man Acko, i agree this group of lads have helped create great atmospheres in the passed (Barrow/Cardiff) they just need to learn to calm down and maybe not drink as much on they way
