We would like to remind all supporters that we fully support the RFU Code of Conduct to which all Clubs, Players and Supporters are expected to adhere. Full details of the code can be found here.

In particular, we would expect our supporters;
•    not to use abusive or crude language or gestures towards any player, all match officials or fellow spectators - home or away;
•    to be aware that there are likely to be younger supporters around them at games and moderate their behaviour and language accordingly;
•    not to say anything which is likely to intimidate, offend, insult, humiliate or discriminate against any other person on account of their religion, race, colour or national or ethnic origin.

We consider such behaviour unacceptable and should such conduct occur, we will take steps as appropriate to deal with any individuals concerned.
