| Quote: Saddened! "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, 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. |

[quote="Rob Wire":qtnftxzx]WIGAN ARE BACK to what exactly ? Oh i see what you mean, back to beating weakened teams. How many key players did we have missing in the cup ?
Just remind us again how many key players did Saints have missing in last years grand final ?
When did you actually last beat a strong Saints or Warringtom team ? Don't include beating us last year at the HJ, we had a lead of around 14pts and were cruising then we lost both Briers and Monaghan, another example of Wigan capitalising on other teams misfortunes.[/quote:qtnftxzx]

So singing and having a good time after beating your rivals shows signs that their could be trouble? 
And it wasn't just "Chavs", a lot of people were jumping about and singing. |

We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47035.gif |

Have never really found Warrington to be the most plesent of fans. Can't say I've ever attended Warrington without some trouble happening of one form or another. I know we have our own set of loons, as do all clubs, however I do tend to find that our loons are more than likely to try and start a fight with our own fans rather than with other clubs fans.
People often say we have a foul mouthed set of fans, and actually I think we do. However I still think the most shameful chant I heard was one of the less loud ones at a Leeds game 2 or 3 seasons ago, were a very fat lad and his mates thought it was hilarious to make up some chant about the yorkshire ripper and what he did to the women in yorkshire. As you can imagine it did not catch on. But still it's embarrasing to think that some people will find anything amusing for the sake of 'Banter'.

Leeds chant about Bradford being 'just a town full of (Erm lets say a not nice term about asian people)' |

Maybe. Entirely irrelevant to the thread, mind.
