| The Wigan Facebook page put on Facebook on before that they are considering putting a 'singing section' in the southern end of the east stand starting in 2014.
I think they have got the idea from the survey they did a few weeks a go which included a section of questions about the atmosphere and how to improve it.
What do people think?
I think it will be a good idea, at the least the club are listening to the fans are trying to make the atmosphere better for home games.

| I think what the original Brigantes were doing in the early 2011 period was fantastic, flags, colour, singing, atmosphere in the south stand. It's a shame what happened.

I agree, it would be great to see them back but unfortunately it's probably not going to happen. No reason why people can't start taking flags into the singing section next season and recreate how it's was a couple of years a go.

If you don't bother to go to the game when you live in the locality then you are not really a fan and therefore your views are invalid. It's simple.:icons39ad_files/4821-1859san_c-msnicons.jpg |

| I would prefer a better atmosphere but I inevitably tens to find that going near where people sing at home games means standing with a load of n*bheads and teenagers. I'm sure it wasn't like that a decade ago but maybe I have selective memory. If it was literally just people singing and it wasn't just kids and people with the mental age of kids I'd join in

| Does anyone have seats on the proposed area they would like to keep yet don't want to sing?
What rows and seat numbers is it exactly?
Do those who do sing want to be shunted to one end of the stand?
It's an all seater stadium and if you have reserved seating in a stand I am not sure how that is compatible with the proposal.
Take away reserved seating and you will lose a lot of season ticket sales IMO. May as well just buy a membership to get your finals tickets and if people don't buy a season ticket for this reason they may be selective as to which games they attend which would reduce the crowd size and the atmosphere.

I assumed it would be the South Stand, no?

South end of the east stand is correct. According to the Wigan Facebook page that it what they are considering.
Putting it in the south stand would make more sense though.

| It should be the north end of the east to interact with the away fans.

| Will there also be a special section for fans who leave early with airliner style chutes for quick egress?
