Was in a pub full of them a couple of years ago and it was actually pathetic watching them groping the bar staff and trying to pass it off as banter.
As said above, if it was football fans....it wouldn't have been tolerated.

Just wondered if you had been on the same train as me (you weren't). There was a couple of Welsh rugby fans on my train that night and they were a right laugh. They fair cheered up the normally boring train journey home and raised a few smiles and laughs from the grumpy gits that are normally on the train.

Fair enough. there was only 2 on my train. If there had been more it probably would have been rather tedious.

I wouldn't deny that there's an unsavoury element in any football/rugby team's support, but the proportion of arrogant bullying plooks among rugby fans is certainly a lot higher than among (say) the Scotland football team's away support. (And you KNOW I'm not THEIR biggest fan by a long chalk.)
You have the big guys who just assume that since there's a dozen of them and they're bigger than anyone else in the pub/carriage/street they have the right to make life miserable for everyone around them.
Then there are the wee nasty weasel-faced ones who make themselves obnoxious - they're the ones the bar-staff have to watch out for, IMO. As soon as anyone objects to THEIR carry-on, they call up their big mates, all 12 of them, and it's "What are you going to do about it, then?" time.
And then there are the women. Straight off shift in the Port Talbot steelworks five days before, and haven't washed (or been sober) since.
English men the same, only with a 'YAH' accent. English women tend to be Essex girls, full of themselves. Irish not much better.
French not IMO as bad, but seasoned with onion and garlic. At least their women look good. Cruel to cockerels, though.
Scots? What can you say about anyone who pays good money to watch the Scotland team THESE days? At least they're getting the punishment they deserve.
There. A balanced and unbiased assessment, folks.

Funny all these folk on here calling Welsh rugby fans "hoorah henries" and the like, conveniently forgetting that in Wales rugby is as much as a working class sport as football.
Personally, as a fan of multiple sports, I find this "my sport has better fans than your sport" drivel utterly boring.

When you get 40,000 fans travelling to one city, there are going to be some twats amonst them. Be it football, rugby, Oasis or boxing fans, there will be an element who misbehave.
As somebody who was in Dublin midweek for the Celtic Cup game and at Murrayfield at the weekend, I can assure you the worst behaviour I witnessed came in Dublin..................from the Northern Irish fans.
