What can i do about un ruly behaviour

[Guest]

I sit in the chook pen and have done for the last 10 years. This year a bad element has crept into the pen. I so sick of the foul language and the constant abuse. I don't see that there is much i can do. ? I have emailed the roosters and they said that if it keeps it up they will suspened their membership. Honestly i think the roosters need to do more what can i do?

Go and complain to security at the ground on the day.
Point out the culprits, and detail all the bad language, without saying the words.

"New attitude-New beginning" should also apply to all our supporters.

The Club should act, not just do nothing.


Constant abuse?
Of whom?...yourself?


And that "We'll beat you with our c..ks" sign should've been banned by the Roosters as soon as it appeared.
It wasn't.
Another disgrace.

I used to work as an usher there back in 2000 and the security there made pre-911 U.S. airport security look competent.

If that's changed, you should involve them.

If you are who I'm thinking of, by the nicname, look in the mirror and have a word with yourself. I'm still feeling annoyed that you insulted a friend of mine.
If you are not, accept a thousand apologies, and do as bondi-boy suggests. It may help if you get other people
to join with you.

You're at a loig match, not a catholic school picnic...what did you expect from loig fans? Have you heard of lowest common denominator?

If the animals offend you, dont sit in the zoo.

I used to take my family to the pen and we all enjoyed the atmosphere being among like minded supporters, but serveral years ago I decided that the language and behaviour of a minority in the pen was not something I wanted my wife or children to have to suffer so we could support our team.

So we now sit in Bay 11 and we haven't even come close to the behaviour that had crept into the pen and we now look forward to each home game.

And to say I'm disappointed in the attitude shown by the advice of don't sit in the Zoo is an understatment. I would much rather the Club take the stance that they rather not have "animals" supporting their club and kick them out for the good of everyone else.

My 2c worth.

But John...why are you disappointed with my "dont sit in the zoo" attitude? Its a pretty big stadium. Why MUST you sit there? Its footy....yuo will always get animals that swear or carry on. Thats the nature of the feeding frenzy.

Maybe we could pack cucumber sandwiches and a nice iced tea and cheer rah rah? Oops wrong code...

Even The Most Shameful Hypocrits Need To Be Told To Shut Up Sometimes!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
JUST SHUT UP!

OR:

STAND UP! - BE UNITED! - BE COUNTED!


Greetings My Fellow Roosters Fans,

Hi Everyone! I am Maree. I am 40 years old, a fully qualified & experienced Chef, I'm employed full time & I'm a Mum of 2 teenagers, living & working in Sydney NSW. Even though I am originally born & bred in Carlton, Victoria:
I ALWAYS HAVE BEEN & ALWAYS WILL BE, A LOYAL ROOSTERS FAN!
I have been LOYAL for the past 38 years & I will remain so through the next 38 years, AND BEYOND!!!...

I have only been on FB via my phone since June 2010, when my StepDad of 25 years, was tragically killed in a freak workplace accident & my kids encouraged me to join FB to communicate more regularly with loved ones & my interstate family members... But I have also been fortunate enough to join in and be included in some Roosters Fans FB world, which really does have quite a healthy community of ROOSTERS FANS
I have met some of them & have made some fantastic friends with some very beautiful people that I treasure & will always value their friendships for life...
I have only owned my laptop to get online here since Jan 2011...
However:

***JUST COZ I WAS NEVER COMPUTOR SAVVY ONLINE BEFORE THAT TIME DOES NOT MEAN THAT I DIDN'T EXIST OR THAT I AM A FRAUD OR INDEED, A FAKE ROOSTERS FAN OR A BANDWAGONER AS HAS BEEN ACCUSED OF ME!!!
(Although It Was Suggested By an ex Knights/Now Number 1 BandWagoner, So It DOESN'T Count To Me!!!)***

I KNOW WHO I AM, WHERE I AM FROM, & WHERE I AM GOING IN LIFE... I AM A REALIST & I AM BRUTALLY HONEST & ALWAYS GENUINE WITH MY LOVED ONES..... I AM A VERY GOOD PERSON WITH A VERY TRUE & HONEST HEART.....
I LOVE MY LIFE & I AM VERY HAPPY & CONTENT BEING ME

ANYONE WHO GENUINELY GETS TO KNOW ME WILL VOUCH FOR ME, AS ANY OF MY MANY CLOSE & PERSONAL FRIENDS WILL, IN A MOST FAVOURABLE REPORT ABOUT MY HONEST & TRUSTWORTHY CHARACTER

TO THOSE BITTER & TWISTED PEOPLE, THOSE JUDGEMENTAL FOOLS WHO THINK THEY KNOW ALL ABOUT ME, WHO HAVE BIASED OR NEGATIVELY INFLUENCED OPINIONS OF ME, YET HAVE NEVER MET ME OR EVEN SPOKEN TO ME, & TO THOSE WHO THINK THEY ARE A SUPERIOR HUMAN BEING, ENOUGH TO HAVE UN-FAIRLY & UN-JUSTLY JUDGED ME FOR ANYTHING;

***JUST SHUT UP! - OR STAND UP! - BE UNITED! - BE COUNTED!***

I don't wish to create ANY controversy, nor do I want or need any NEGATIVE replies, I AM MERELY CALLING FOR ALL ROOSTERS FANS ON THE WALL TO REFRAIM FROM ANY MORE PERSONAL ATTACKS ON EACH OTHER IN PUBLIC FORUMS SUCH AS THIS IS...
(Seeing as I have just noticed that I AM NOT the only recipiant of such pathetic & immature personal attacks - I just think it's time that someone called for peace & reminded everyone that this is a site to discuss all things Roosters & Footy!!! - It IS NOT the right forum to conduct personal attacks or witch hunts against any individual/s, you may or may not personally like)

It is due to my being sick to death of some OF these particular peoples examples on here, displaying certain mental health & jealousy issues towards others, that they feel the need to publically attack others personally, & then they have the subsequent 'bully bandwagoner friends', who have joined in their ringleaders constant barrage of abuse, unfounded accusations & negative &/or spiteful comments upon the victims good character, & it just keeps feeding into it at every opportunity so that THE ROT SETS IN & nothing improves for anyone, LEAST OF ALL THE VICTIM!!!

FOR THIS REASON & FOR RESPECT TOWARDS OUR CLUB & OUR FELLOW FANS, I AM COMPELLED TO CALL FOR PEACE &/OR, AT LEAST QUIET FROM THESE TYPES OF NEGATIVE, MALICIOUS MINDED PEOPLE!!!
***IF YOU CAN'T SAY ANYTHING NICE - BEST YOU DON'T SAY ANYTHING AT ALL!!!***

I have been the recipient of some ppls constant abuse & negativity, ONLY by a small faction of insanely jealous ppl, but for this reason I felt it wise to introduce myself to those who don't know me... And I would request that anyone who wishes to interact with me, get to know me personally or leave comments on my posts here, THEY DO SO BUT PLEASE REFRAIM FROM ANY TWISTED & NASTY PERSONAL ATTACKS &/OR LEAVING ANY NEGATIVE COMMENTS UPON ANY OF MY FELLOW ROOSTERS FRIENDS!!!

ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE MOONLIGHTING UNDER A FICTICIOUS OR ANONYMOUS ALIAS!!!

***THIS SITE IS FOR ROOSTERS FANS TO UNITE!!!

***THIS SITE IS TO SHARE THE ROOSTERS LOVE!!!

***BUT IF YOU CAN'T SAY ANYTHING NICE AT ALL:



***JUST SHUT UP! - OR STAND UP! - BE UNITED! - BE COUNTED

This is a thread she started on The Wall.

I used to sit in the zoo too.
Why? Atmosphere with like minded fanatics.There is nothing like it and back in the day only a few years ago it was an exciting place..........................

But swearing and animalistic behaviour has crept in and some of us felt powerless to stop it until one day a guy of around 6"8' and built like a brick shitehouse bounced one over the fence so the rest of them shut up for the day.
The fans cannot provide security however and I too now sit on the other side because officialdom wont do anything about it.

Point is though the fans deserve a secure place to sit where THEY want without animals ruining the day not the other way round.
Yes it is a game of Rugby League that is tough and uncomprimising but I think the occassional swear word can be tolerated but an afternoon of it is NOT ACCEPTABLE..

[Guest]

oh puhlease

no wondr no one respects roosters fans

look at all this bitching and moaning

the chookpen hasnt changed in the years of my intermittent attendance a fould mouthed aggro extravagana

HTFU

[blooster]

I agree with the initial comments

This has been raised a few times before...Once by myself.
Some of the excuses written in this thread are just short of ridiculous.
"its a Loig Game.. what do u expect". "Animals in the Zoo" etc...
Take responsibility for your own actions...ITS ANTI SOCIAL behaviour and YOUR IN A PUBLIC PLACE !..
We all expect our "heroes" to behave themselves yet some people in that bloody pen think its OK to act like animals in the zoo....or league players in a night club!...
Go away and wake up to yourselves. Why can we not portray a good public image and set an example...
The lowest common denominator excuse simply lumps you in with all the other white trash that support some OTHER clubs. It doesn't have to be that way....U have a CHOICE people

[melon....]

You want wholesome? Hastings family stand. You want agro old men, bay 13, 14, 15..where i used to sit. You want animals, chookpen.

thats how it is.
