paul hicks Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 I suppose with the abuse at grounds and on social media about refs it was only a matter of time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dixiedean Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Sadly, this is social media. People think they have the right to spout any old ######. And that they have "freeze peach" to do so. Get them locked up. Wouldn't get away with it in person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you say, dealt with professionally by Hicks & also Wire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hicks has handled this really well. Oh I agree. 2 weeks ago I was skating a section of Hull supporters for the way they acted after the final try of the game. Everyone's got their idiots. It just seems Warrington's have all come out to play at the same time the last couple of weeks. It's a good job they won that semi final! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eleftherios Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Apparently Hicks has met up with the fan in question, along with Fitzpatrick and the police. After discussions the fan was give a suspended ban. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denton Rovers RLFC Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Somewhat different to the way Tongan's by the hundreds if not thousands threatened to kill Matt Checcin and his family including his kids were threatened, such they had to move out of Australia completely and he retire. No arrests were made over the event despite police apparently 'investigating' matters. What's worse is that the king of Tonga could have stopped all that in its tracks but said absolutely nothing, that alone speaks volumes of him and many of his people! In fact only recently there were allegations of sexual impropriety by the king and the government of Tonga's response to that is to shut down Facebook from the nation's people.

Man of Kent Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 The response by Hicks is one of the reasons I love this sport. So often it is compassionate where others may be callous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkw Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Brilliantly handled by hicks, and well handled by Warrington to be fair. I wish he had walked in, miked up and shouted "MOVE" at him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Futtocks Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Well done Hicks and FitzPatrick. Classy handling of a sordid situation.

This bloke has been brought down about twenty pegs for acting the nob, and the club has taken responsibility for sorting him out in an adult fashion. I can confirm 30+ less sales for Scotland vs Italy at Workington, after this afternoons test purchase for the Tonga match, £7.50 is extremely reasonable, however a £2.50 'delivery' fee for a walk in purchase is beyond taking the mickey, good luck with that, it's cheaper on the telly.

Dave T Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 This is a weird article by Carter and the Sun. This tweet was 10 weeks ago and discussed extensively at the time. This story has resurfaced because of the interesting approach in resolving it but the Sun article reads as though this has just happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
