Its not usually the fans that end up fighting though, its idiots that come from both sides just for a fight, by not playing fev i feel were are letting these idiots win to the detriment of true fans.
true fans or not we only get it when we play featherstone but anyway i have brought this one O/T so sorry about that.
In fairness every club has the odd set of idiots, theres the Salford fans of last year starting trouble and throwing flares etc onto the field, we had the Loiners throwing stuff on the pitch the other season, had trouble with Kr supporters couple of times, and yes the scuffles in the past with Rovers fans.
However, we did also bombard the field with allsorts after the Catalans game and even laid seige on the match officials changing room, also fighting amongst our own fans at Headingley so we are far from angels ourselves.
So kinda unfair to point the finger directly at a certain club, we all do it at some point.

However, there hasn't been any trouble that I'm aware either before, during or after either of the last two Boxing Day matches.

Spot on post. I've seen us play Cas home and away, probably 40 games in total. For 39 of those games Cas fans have behaved reasonably well. Only in one game in the 2004 season when Cas fans marched towards the Wakey fans at the jungle, you all remember the game, have I felt threatened.
I could say this is typical of Cas fans but clearly it isn't. Fev fans I have never had any bother with over a similar number of games. Are they angels, err no, it's jut never happened - yet.
It probably will eventually but that won't make them public enemy No 1 overnight. Get two passionate or drunk sets of people in a charged environment and there is always the potential for trouble.
The only two clubs who continually seem to cause trouble are the Hull clubs, but even then it's quite rare, maybe 4 minorish incidents in 20 years,
Reality is the potential for trouble exists in all fan groups and at ever match and always will. To isolate any set of fans even those from Hull is a bit of a knee jerk reaction IMHO. Let he who is without sin and all that.
The half dozen gateshead fans were always unlikely to be any trouble.
Over the years i have seen trouble from- both hulls, fev, salford, leeds, wakey, hudds, wire, haven, widnes and bradford fans and i'm pretty certain (at the tender age of 23) i havent seen half of what some fans have seen.
I will never like fev, but i respect them and i will never blame the actions of a few idiots on them.

You forgot to mention the trouble you have seen some Cas fans start
