Not sure at this moment in time brininging up Bloody Sunday and an incident from years ago helps any situation here?

As much as this is topical - best interest for all is if this thread is killed.

Let the powers decide and sort it out...

On the free press website, it says the attendance was 595. Seemed a lot more than that to me.

595 crowd and 75 rioting, depressing very depressing

Anyone know why the Queens player was given the yellow card following the touch judge going on to the field to speake to the ref just before the game was stopped? Reported in league express as "dissent" but wonder what was said.

Racism?!

I've seen the video and I can't see anyone who's an ethnic minority. Sounds like a very poor attempt at blame shifting to me!!
