No, nothing at all to do with hooliganism! This is about setting up an Ultras scene to promote a bit of colour, passion and noise on the terraces in a similar fashion to Ultras groups on the continent and those which are increasing in popularity over here (e.g. see Aberdeen’s Red Ultras website. Even Accrington Stanley have their Stanley Ultras!)

We'd be looking at the production of new flags and banners, ideally with striking & original designs. Homemade or professionally made flags & banners, it doesn’t matter. The more the better.

If anyone is interested, give me a PM or if anyone has any ideas (including ‘no chance, it’s a non-starter!) put your ideas on here.

I’ve already contacted the club to see if they are interested in having any input although I suspect that something like this would work better away from home for various reasons.



Forza Wigan !!

I think its a great idea, there is something lacking and I am sure there are many loyal supporters who just need a catalyst to get the atmosphere going and this maybe it.

Personally think away matches are better for atmosphere and we need to target the JJB/DW

The club Marketting dept should jump on this idea!

Oh im all for this!! an idea presented by Phil, (harkins on here) some time ago, great idea, especially for away games!

Where do i sign JBLO?

The atmposphere at home games is very, very poor.

There needs to be some sort of official ''loud section'' in the East & South stands so that those who are keen on making some noise can do so with safety of knowing those next to them will be doing too. That's the problem with having an all seater, reserved seating stadium.

It's amazing how our away followings are so vocal, enjoyable, loud and full of songs yet our home followings are almost silent...Even though the exacty same people are in attendance plus more!

Get everyone sat together at the back of the East stand and we would make plenty of noise.

There is no point having 2 small groups of people in two different stands trying to make some noise.

It would make home games much more enjoyable and this could improve the attendances. I am not sure so many would go to Leeds every week if it was not so much fun in the south stand.

Great idea!!

Why the East stand?

Oh let me guess its... Where you happen to sit?

its ALWAYS the east stand!

Fantastic idea, I know me and several others are looking at moving back to the South stand next season but sitting more into the corners at the back, not in the middle. If your gunna have lots of flags and banners etc it would look far better behind the sticks.

Lets rip it up in the West Stand.
Nothing quite like a burning red flare in one hand and a prawn sandwich in the other

There aren't anymore though, even away games have been absoulutely pathetic this season.

Why limit it at 5,500 people singing when it could be over 8000 opposite the camera for every one to see, it would look great. If the east stand was full with everyone singing it would be great. It would be like the south stand is for Leeds but better.

It wouldn't work in the East as it's all reserved seating. The South is not.

Why does that matter I am pretty sure that the Kop and Stretford end are both reserved.
