| I did not go to the game today but from the sounds of it on the Redvee forum a number of there "fans" where not sitting in there seats that they where given and ended up causing lots of trouble at the game e.g fighting among eachover and throwing beer/being sick over eachover! thankfully the DW as a lot of cctv so they can get in touch with Saints and ban those fans from coming to the DW again! From the sounds of it it was a group of around 50 young fans around 18-20 that where causing the trouble

| Quote: MattyB "Did not see any trouble yesterday, went to the fanzone before the game and there was a small number of Saints fans mingling outside (Thatto Heath kids were playing a match on a section of the pitch).
After the game we headed into the town centre, plenty supporters mixed no issues whatsoever.
The only bit of potential aggro was when we decided to head home. A lad in his twenties, dressed in stone island made a beeline for my lad (had his Wigan top on), I immediately called him out and was ready for him. He skulked off angrily.... they really are soft as $hite when they are pulled up on their own (I wonder which football team he supported).
How bad is it that you can't walk through your own town centre on match day with out getting abuse from knuckle dragging neanderthals.'"
Pretty obvious who they supported. You only have to look at the cesspit that's Twitter to see the green eyed footy fans out.
Make no mistake about it, yesterday will have been absolutely gutting for the Latics lot.
Not only did they get beat yet again, but the town was absolutely awash with cherry and white shirts. I stayed in the fan village for a couple after the match, so only got into town later, but I've not seen Wigan as lively in a long time. Many pubs had to turn people away as they were at max capacity. I can imagine pubs and restaurants in the centre had a bumper day.
Roll on Good Friday 2025!

Your replying to someone who never goes to any games. It was obvious from the east stand that fans were craming into the back rows to stand as if it was terracing. I believe it was reserved seating so fans are ignoring that, this group mentality is evident at most big sporting events. To enjoy yourself you have to conform to the behaviour of the most selfish pr@ck5 in the stadium. Its f#c£ you were enjoying ourselves. Stadium staff have little or no control of large groups

That being said it shouldn't detract good supporters from following their team on the road. Like yesterday 99.99% home and away supporters where there for the right reasons before and after the game.
