i think we can do it. I'll be joining in and doing my part, but one thing I did notice about the "oooooooo ooo ooo, wooooooh woooha" is how infectious it is.

Split up into 3 groups, main group at the back and two satalitte groups toward the front on either side, and it will spread. Sure you'll get the odd misery who wont join in, but if the bulk are up and singing and dancing...

A purple patch inspired on his home ground by man of the match WIGAN CAPTAIN Sean O’Loughlin produced three tries in an eight-minute spell just before half-time, and the GB Lions added two more after the break to maintain Smith’s 100 per cent record as Great Britain coach.

If all the people who sat at the back at Widnes sit together in the south stand and give it as much as they did on Friday night it could be done. You will get more and more people wanting to be part of that and the area will grow week on week.

It would take a while though.

we're usually down the front as well, when it starts up at the back, we're planning to join in, and get those around us to do the same...

Home atmospheres are never anything like atmospheres at away games.

so we need to find out why, and fix it. There's only 2000 more in South Stand than went on Friday night, that's the minority...

It looks fun... and people tend to join in with stuff that looks fun!

[quote="Rob Wire":qtnftxzx]WIGAN ARE BACK to what exactly ? Oh i see what you mean, back to beating weakened teams. How many key players did we have missing in the cup ? Just remind us again how many key players did Saints have missing in last years grand final ? When did you actually last beat a strong Saints or Warringtom team ? Don't include beating us last year at the HJ, we had a lead of around 14pts and were cruising then we lost both Briers and Monaghan, another example of Wigan capitalising on other teams misfortunes.[/quote:qtnftxzx] [color=#FF0000:qtnftxzx][list:qtnftxzx]Gotta' love 'em.[/list:u:qtnftxzx][/color:qtnftxzx] [color=#FF0000:qtnftxzx]"You can shove yer f****** England up yer a***"[/color:qtnftxzx]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_51917.jpg



No point in trying. It has been tried before and does not work. All those who stood together at Widnes don't all sit together.

Everyone is split up at home games as opposed to all being together at away games. Plus, at away games you have your die hards as opposed to your day trippers.

Keeping a post-match cold beer in the fridge since 1979! and a little before that if the real truth be known!!:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_9624.jpg

Perhaps for next season it may be worthwhile approaching the club to see if they could arrange for a Brigantes section in Either the South or East Stands then those who want to try and create an atmosphere can while those that want to watch the game in their way also could

Just a thought

I think its the same for most teams, in all sports, because away days are just so much better, the fans are more pumped for the game and you really get involved in the action. At home people tend to switch off (unless of course its a big derby game, which Huddersfield is not)
