Police are investigating a death threat made to Robert Hicks, according to Gary Carter on Twitter.

Rugby League is vastly deteriorating off the pitch.

Believed but not proven to be a Warrington "Fan". Didn't realise there was clashes of Warrington and Wigan fans way back in March. https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/9718136/ ... e-referee/

It should not matter who clubs he supports, other than for that clubs supporters and officials to root out scum like this. It is a deplorable situation and should not be used to attack clubs as per the norm on here.

What does matter is Hicks getting the right support.

He's hardly done it anonymously! Get the clown arrested and banned from any future match. The most disturbing thing about this for me is that Hicks is actually the best ref we've got!!

It is old news from 31st May - and reported in the Warrington Guardian 1st June.

It seems these 'Elite' league players - and followers - are trying their very best to scupper any broadcast deals for the future.

It is not a very good year,thus far,on and off the field,in so many ways.

Lurches from bad to worse,and continues.

Don't blame me

Disgraceful.

I think everyone understands that a crowd are occasionally going to sing uncomplimentary songs about a referee, and I’m not one who protects referees from criticism but that’s just crazy.

Anyone who is taking the sport that seriously should have no place within it.

Why would you make a threat to kill from your twitter account with a picture of yourself on it , along with your name .Thats nuts .

Why would you make a threat to kill full stop.

Quote LeedsLurch="LeedsLurch"Hicks face to face with death threat fan https://www.seriousaboutrl.com/hicks-me ... eat-21744/'" Fair play to Hicks for having the balls to do that. Idiots like this guy have no place in society, never mind sport and shows just how dangerous the internet can be in giving those who are cranially challenged a voice. Edit: As proven by the poster above.
