Just a foot note to my first post... As a parent if I thought someone was going to far with either swearing or aggression .. I WOULD TELL THEM.. and anyone who knows me will tell you .. I have done.. But I'm realistic enough to know you will NEVER erradicate swearing or aggressive banter ... We are going to watch two teams go to battle .. Not a garden party at Buckingham Palace.. Lets get some perspective here .. It's not constant swearing and half the time you can't make out the words. The bigger deal you make of it the worse some will become.. Because some idiots will take matters into their own hands. If you are offended .. Move or if not possible ask them to tone it down..

As for the idiot sts fans pretending to hang themselves.. Was that a disgusting dig at Terry Newton? The same morons who booed his minutes silence

so have racist chants until a few years ago.
but times have changed

theres a warning given out over the speakers before every game...simple....do as it asks...dont use obscene or racist language and it'll be fine

If this is true, whoever took the pictures should post them on here and hopefully other saints fans will name and shame them. Disgusting. Why are we even talking about swearing when saints fans were doing that? Certainly puts it into perspective.

Wigan pie man .. Swearing isn't aimed at a person because of the colour of their skin.. Racism and swearing are a completely separate issue and should not be compared.

Why's this issue only just arrived? It happens every game. Why dont people speak up about the Warrington chant? Or the Lockers chant? Or the I want to go home chant?

I could go on, but this is a pathetic thread

Hmmmm. Unsure how I feel about this:

He's only a poor little scouser...

Referees a Wank..

Build a Bonfire

Wigan Road...F... the Latics

W**ky Warrington

..Cos I'm a Yorks**e Bas****

and on and on it goes.................


I've taken my kids to games since they were babies, they know just because it's sang at rugby doesn't make it OK at home or in the playground.

The only reason the chant on Saturday is getting so much attention is because it was sang so loud by so many and for so long.

Nice if you could all change the word, but c'est la vie.

No. Still baffled.

The stewards asked for restraint. This was followed by an announcement by the stadium over the tannoy. Those of you who are struggling to understand the issue are clearly the ones who disrespect authority. I don't care how many times bad language has been used previously it doesn't make it right.

Nohalfback
I don't disrespect authority.. I do disrespect people who won't allow others their own point of view. Before each game the tannoy requests we don't swear.

How about for the next Stains game in two weeks:


We don't like you very much,
We don't like you very much,
We don't like you,
We don't like you,
We don't like you very much.

Thank you for been to ashamed to spell out all the explitives. It shows that you to know it is also wrong to use them. You know it would not be printed on this site because they are not acceptable. The tape they play every match asking politely for the crowd not to use Foul racist and abusive language is supported by nearly all the Wigan fans. The few that suggest this is not a family club that does not welcome the children and that you can use bad language to express themselves are in the minority.Just stick to the code of conduct this club is proud to brodcast at every home match
