As a leyther myself, I too am a little annoyed at the chants heard at the game on Saturday..For far too long now we have continued to keep alive the Wigan hatred of years gone by and its a little boring now. However I do appreciate that they were meant to be light hearted chants so I aint gonna drag people over hot coals for it.
What is also annoying is that elements of this Wigan board find it totally acceptable to start with the ignorant, abusive and foulmouthed inults such as inbreds and the like.

A simple quote of "idiots" would suffice.

Quote: Cruncher "Accepting this explanation would require me to give Leigh the benefit of the doubt. Not possible, I'm afraid. Too many memories of idiotic behaviour at Hilton Park.'"



Well there you go just explained it yourself selective hearing. I to have seen idiotic behavior at Hilton Park and not just from Leigh Fans and as they say it takes 2 to tango. I have also seen Idiotic behavior in recent times at a few different grounds by so called supporters most clubs have a few Idiots and have always have had just dont tar everyone with the same brush.

Despite some of the thoroughly offensive and over vivid imaginations of some of the posters on this thread I intend to still come to your next home game with 2 other Leythers. We shall now support Saints but to remain unbiased we will sit behind the posts in the Wigan end of course.

We all have four fingers and one thumb on each hand and regularly watch other teams play the game we all support (including you lot of course) when Leigh are not playing.

So as not to upset anyone though we will eat our pasties out of napkins taking small bites and will not purchase any pies.

One further comment every Leyther I know thinks Sam Tomkins was outstanding for England on Saturday.

Much scarf twiddling at this point !!!!:34047.jpg



Well although the chants were all meant in good humoured banter it seems that its a large proportion of your fans that seem to want to make this MUCH MUCH more than it actually was..

To accuse us of racist comments when we were singing about the shape of pastry based items is almost laughable if it wasnt so serious icon_rolleyes.gif

We are not stuck in the dark ages but we do have a sense of humour, something that a lot of you on here could do with yourselves.

We had good banter with the w1g@n fans near us and they did the same in return....end of.

And I would like to echo frankb's comments re mr Tomkins, he was supberb on saturday eusa_clap.gif

Totally agree and for that and the fact that we seem to be going around in circles, i'll lock this.
