| I was in perpignan on monday for the game as where alot of other wigan fans, it was disgusting to see and hear the WIGAN fans giving so much abuse and singing a disgusting song to the players, 3 days after a really tough derby game and travelling over to france, thats the best the wigan fans could come up with totally embarrasing

| If I'd paid money to go over there to watch a game of rugby and got that load of rubbish then I think I'd give them some stick too. What was the song? Couldn't hear anything bad on the TV I don't think.

To be fair Stu, I didn't hear much booing let alone anti-Wigan songs?

| your and where sick of it,
we wonder why players dont have confidence,they got behind the sticks and a select amount of fans just screamed that at them, if your a fan you stick with your team through thick and thin and get behind the boys instead of singing that, it was cringeworthy
Al you must of heard that song it was right at the side of where you was sat

yeah but they were - That on monday was a sing a long with the sound of music compared with cardiff and the home game last year.
not as cringeworthy as fans singing were by far the greatest team - that song should be stopped due to the fraudulance of it!!!!!!!

ah so you are another one settling for mediocrity!!!!
typically stinky attitude - we dont go for the fun of it - being a fan is not fun we go regardless but that does not mean we have to bleat on about being the greatest club in the world.
the fans who went to france do get behind the team thats why they spend hundreds and hundreds of pounds a year but most of us are also not completely stupid and see the club dying on the pitch so should we just stand there like a bunch of idiots cheering and clapping 80 minutes of shizzle. And no I didnt sing the song about being sick of it because i was too busy being severely pee'd off and sat with head in hands!

It would appear that travelling hundreds of miles and spending hundreds of pounds is still not enough to make you a category 1 fan. It must be accompanied by mindless support also!

To be honest they have a point. If I was there I'd have probably joined in, especially having paid all that money and taking time off work to go, only to see some of the players not bother to put a proper shift in - the slow walk to form a scrum when a couple of scores behind being a classic example.
The most cringeworthy thing for me are those happy clappers who have a go at fans for letting their feelings be known. One of the turning points of last season for me, which got us to within a game of the Grand Final was when a large proportion of the crowd at the Huddersfield game let rip with "you're not fit to wear the shirt". I dare say it focused the players minds for the rest of the season.

| I wonder why some people think we should clap and support regardless of the performances?
In my opinion if a team is expecting support they have to earn it, this current mob have not earned it.
In order to receive criticism then a team has to deserve it, this current mob have earned that right.
I never sing or chant at rugby its not my thing but i can understand others who wish to come together and express there view in this mannor as it seems fitting at the moment.

| There'll always be this argument about whether teams who are showing nothing should be given stick or noisily supported.
I'm divided on this. Emotion often gets the better of me and I shout angrily during matches, but I pride myself on never having booed.
That said, I fully understand why people do. These guys are earning a fortune for doing what they love, and at present are giving very little back in return (in fact they've given very little back for quite a while).
It's also worth getting the message to the players that it's not them as individuals that the fans worship - it's the shirt they wear. To us, wearing the cherry and white should be an honour, but I get the impression that very few of the current Wigan players have this attitude - so it's not suprising that the fans are often insensed with them.
