I fink widnes without winning a trophy for ... years will have a better impact as its our true rivals

Great stuff and good on them for letting them stay up. Won't they have to take them down for certain event such as the World Cup though?

I wonder if the Wigan fans, after reading this, will be approaching Dave Whelan.

Yeh thats the onli time they will have to come down but thr stadium are gonna put them u themselves we just have to let them know where we want each one to go an they will do the rest.

And they will take them down for the appropriate events an then get em back up. We need a few up in timenfor wigan. And dont worry about wigan they wont get anywhere as its a footy ground too an they play in blue and white so dave whelan wont allow it. Once we get a couple up hopefully it will spread an people will come together and get more up

I know that's why I posted what I did.



It's not a footy ground too, it just a footy ground.

Did you organise this, if so, well done to you. Good to see people being proactive and not just complaining on forums.

https://www.facebook.com/groups/117198151807628/ This is the Facebook group being used to organize what we are doing. Lots of loyal fans on there all lending ideas on how to achieve our main aim. and that is: A good, vocal, well turned out crowd with a carnival atmosphere that everyone can be involved in. The magic weekend is the perfect example of that. Lets take the HJ to its full potential. A ground pouring with atmosphere that other teams can't compete with.

What's Facebook?

Can't tell if you're pulling my leg or being serious

Bit of both really. I genuinely think what you are trying to do is great. I do know what Facebook is, but I don't have an account so I can't view the group.

Ahh well it's there for others to join if they are interested anyway. That's the thing, ultimately we want the whole stand joining in but we know some go to the game and want to do different things. The only way we see it is for all those who want to join in to come and congregate in the same area.

If you don't well, just sit back, take it all in and enjoy the game!

Will do. I'm in the South this season after many years in the North.

Might join Facebook and have a look.

I've dug back my garden, put some light foundation down, so who ever is laying the free flags let us know and you can come round mine

Let's keep it pro-Wire, eh? Strikes as a bit sad that people have a chance to go and pay for and get made a really nice Wire flag but would rather spend their money on something Widnes or Saints orientated.

I'm thinking lots of Primrose&Blue and some white with P&B writing. Also how about being original and not having loads of St George's flags up like anyone else would.

Is there anyone who knows how to do the sort of thing where you can get people to pay into a PayPal account and raise funds for these sorts of things?

I would imagine they'd prefer the sponsors name rather than 'the south stand'
