RL doesn't need this type of toothless simpletons involved in our great game. The fact that a small proportion of them are calling themselves Brigantes makes it even worse.

Bunch of muppets the lot of them.

Am all for an atmosphere and some colour and works at the game. All you get in the south stand is someone doing that daft whilst. Then a group cheering it.

Very flat at the Hj again this season.

The Brigantes were the ruling "tribe" or Kingdom about 2000 years ago over what is now Greater Manchester, Lancashire, parts of Cumbria, West and North Yorkshire; the area was called Brigantia. They were the most powerful of all the Briton/Celtic tribes of what is now Great Britain. Cartimandua was the Queen and there's quite a well known story about her and her husband going to battle against each other because she had formed good links with the Roman Empire and he didn't like it.

It was a surprise to me when these Wigan fans adopted that name as it covered so much of Northern England and is not specific to Wigan, at all.

The two sets of Poznań and Napoli fans I spoke to both said the same thing as each other. If any within their Ultras group started any trouble they were kicked out. They we're only about making noise and bringing colour to their clubs' games.

Both clubs do have huge hooligan followings too, many groups have big banners like an Ultras style banner. But I was told they are not Ultras.

Napoli Ultras will slash anyone with glee. I don't think Wigan have much in common with Napoli though!

Anyone see the Bayern end at Arsenal right now? THAT'S an away end!

Napoli also don't arrive on the 638 Bus to Newton le Willows.

But if they did and decided to plan a balaclava'd attack on the HJ they would be met with the fiercest resistance from Warrington's very own Ninja squad, the LLF, (the Longford Liberation Front based in Densham nudge nudge wink wink).

They wouldn't be going back to Napoli with any spare 'gioia' that's glee to any non italian slashers on the forum

The WRL_Brigantes twitter page has magically disappeared since Saturday.

The japanese arrived in singapore on bicycles.

Very humid in Singapore - one can only imagine how moist their gussets would have been. Wet as an otter's pocket.

As for the Brigantes, there's a very entertaining thread on the Wigan board. It has just come full circle:-

- Brigantes are bad
- Violence is bad
- They should send squaddies in to sort them out
- Army would batter Navy would batter RAF (mix up as you like)
- Various streets in the UK are "fun" when army types fight
- Violence is good.

Floating bicycles?

I dont understand your problem with fans that actually make noise, a group of about 30 of us go to every game or more if its a big game like wigan or saints we take a drum a load of flags stand at the top and have a few beers and a sing song, but because we do this acccording to most people on here we arejust "hooligans, and should be banned?" Ive been to every game 14 seasons on the run so what makes anyone else more of a or a better fan than any of us?

Because people on here usually go for a quiet day at the rugby and have a different idea of how to enjoy themselves and get behind there team they decide tolook down there noses at us and slag us off on forums without actually knowing us, we just follow our team in a different way so whos to say our way is thebwrong way?
