| For god's sake it's a rugby match not a church service. What do you people at Gateshead expect? Should the Leigh fans have burst into a chorus of "All things bright and beautiful"? Get real. Hopefully we won't be coming back because you guys will be in Championship 1.

| I have just returned from todays match, and have to say that the look of bewilderment from the officials and fans at the stadium as the 300/400 leigh fans descended upon the stadium and started to sing, perhaps belie the issue here.
Having been to a great many games of this sport, and others, I have seen many acts that are out of order and embarassing, and save from the one chorus of the 'flute song' i would have to say that I saw none of this today.
It is obvious that gateshead can not deal with what was only a mediocre following, heaven knows what they would do should the travelling fans of most superleague clubs show up at the thunderdome.
I thought most of the banter was held in good taste, by both sets of fans, and to criticise it now seems to be mainly sour grapes from the home crowd, that were gifted a good result by some ridiculously poor refereeing decisions.
I do believe that the reaction of a certain thunder player leaving the pitch was as poor as the Matt King incident earlier in the super league season, and hope that the action will be disciplined as such. However maybe there are so many antipodeans within the squad that this has now become acceptable to the whiter than white fans that represent the thunder.....

Excellent post, top notch. If there was even a sniff of trouble in the stands then I could understand it, but the stand was shared without a problem and the banter stayed exactly as that. Considering the magnitude of the game, I thought it was pretty good-humoured all round, to be quite honest. Can only assume that Gateshead aren't used to having a large, vocal away following at the ground.
Top, top support from the Leythers today and long may it continue.

| Well all I can say is the fans were not abusive they were good loud and vocal and none were really drunk. They are obviously not used to any away support, we were loud and imtimidating but legally.

| Quote canuck="canuck"Clearly you feel that swearing is perfectly acceptable, and you may experience it at other grounds but we don't like nor endure it at Gateshead. Can I ask you not to come again.
And I'll quite happily apologise for Nick Youngquest's hand gestures as he left the field totally unnacceptable. As far as I saw no-one else did anything else but applaud both sets of fans.
As I said, don't come back!'"
I am ther biggest objector to the Leigh fans singing the flute song and swearing
But today we heard the Song once and other swear words twice in over 100 minutes of intense competition
As for Mr Youngquest , I have lived ' Down under ' and fully understand the meaning of his gesture , unfortunatley I had to leave before he came out from the stadium , I was waiting to see him and I was going to return the favour , there was no direct abuse given to the Gateshead players or Mr Youngquest himself other than Booing
If Both clubs do stay in this competition I will be waiting for him to step off the coach next year at Leigh , his reaction will be interesting I'm sure
As for the Leigh fans there today ,Awesome

Unless there was summat said at the front of the stand, then the only stick being directed at those leaving the field was for the match officials - both sides played their part in an excellent game, and I applauded them both off the field at the end of the game.
