where was the trouble? no, the fans shouldn't have entered to playing area, but all, I saw were the fans celebrating with the players. I didn't see any fans provoke or approach any kr players or kr fans.

saw one kr fan making his way over to the fc fans and players before walking away.

not like we set off flares in the stadium or anything is it

just sour grapes because they lost.

its the [upotential[/u to encite trouble that will be causing the most concern here, especially given scenes like those which followed the cas v widnes semi final, and of course our own low point 15 years ago. good natured or not its still a problem that isn't there if the fans stay in the stands

slap on the wrist at the most,nothing will come of it

Having witnessed some serious hooliganism at football grounds over the years , believe me , I know how quickly these things can escalate. It may seem like innocent fun , but today's celebratory pitch invasion quickly becomes tomorrow's front page pitched battle

But that would only have happened if your guys had taken exception to the FC fans. Fortunately, and to their credit, they didn't and it never looked like turning nasty.

The fans should get a medal for having the stamina to reach the pitch from the South Stand before the floodlights went off.

I'm hearing you but the club surely cant get punished for something that might escalate?? It didn't escalate so there is no issue is there?

From what I remember, the stewards hardly reacted and let the situation happen, maybe Rovers need to take a hard look at the poor lazy stewarding...

Right they should have not been on the pitch ..............



But I have to question that stand and its stewarding, twice it has happened and I really do think it and they are not fit for purpose.

So.....to clarify. You are adamant that grima wasn't at the club long enough to be judged as a coach, but you 100% put down the reconnection with fans as his doing? You are not one ofva comparative handful of remaining fans but consider your opinion stronger than nine because you are there.

All I'll say is that if this reconnection is so good and you're not a clique, then how come the other 3,000 missing fans haven't flocked back? Grimas job was to coach, then select and coach a squad of professional rugby league players and in that he 100% failed.....everything else is just window dressing
