I wasnt condeming Wire fans in general though was I? I was speaking of the idiots that stand in the middle of the west terrace and provoke away fans, this happens all the time it seems after reading other teams forums.

Yes I know its not all and I know a few decent wire fans and met a couple in Edinburgh last year.
But in my personal experience Warrington have more than the chavs who think they are 12 men that all clubs have!
After we finally won at HJ i was in the group of wigan fans many of whom were girls and lads who weighed 8 stone wet through who were outnumbered 2 to 1 by big blokes all of whom could handle themselves and were there simply to have a do at Wigan!
Again after you won the challenge cup last year me and my mate had 5 wire fans come looking to kick off with us purely because we were wigan!

Warrington are suffering from their success and the added surge of absolute fools that are now attending games. The regulars, and I'm sure that includes most of the people on RLFANS are fine, great fans to have a laugh with at games. But there is a growing element of absolutely cock sure lads that are ruining it and it's worse than the idiot element at most clubs.

I think it's only a matter of time before there are serious incidents at games involving Warrington. So many chest beating lads who cannot take you looking in their direction, never mind answering them back. The whole football atmosphere of intimidation and goading has no place in RL, but sadly it's there now. The mentality of people who, with a whole stadium to choose form, choose to buy their ticket in the away end and spend the game asking people what they are looking at needs to be questioned. Warrington as a club shouldn't be selling tickets to people for the away end if the rest of the ground isn't full.

Saddened! I rather think it was the unwillingness of Saints fans to turn up to the game on Friday that resulted in Wire fans being in the away end. If Saints fans don't turn up, what is Warrington supposed to do? Lose money?

Those of us who went were noisy and supportive throughout, even though we lost. We recognised a good effort among the dropped ball and atrocious goal line defence. However, I don't think the Warrington club can be blamed for selling tickets to fans who actually want them (as opposed to Saints fans, who clearly didn't!).

My point entirely.

I don't doubt that. But there are elements of the Warrington fan base who choose that stand whether the rest is sold out or not. And as mentioned before on here, they don't even watch the game.

Maybe when the corners get filled at the HJ the West Stand could be made away fans only.

i always go in the west stand with the away fans.

i like to stand up and watch the game from behind the posts... and the west stand is the only place in the ground i can do this.

I also like to goad away fans, start fights, punch women in the face and set people on fire.

but once on fire do you then have the courtesy to wee on them to put it out....?

Saddened, two things. It's not the away end, and secondly you are a classic case of jumping on the bandwagon. It could also be said that it's only a matter of time before there's a serious incident involving Wigan fans after viewing some of the Chavs at the end of the game at the Stobart a fortnight ago. There's also been a few questions asked of the South Stand at Headingley.
In most Public Order incidents it takes two to tango, believe me.

I know singing and jumping up and down they looked like they good really do some damage!

I didn't have or here of any trouble from the Wigan fans, did anyone?
