I don't think the Brigantes care about rules...

Thanks for asking Neil, I didn't want to appear to come across as Victor Meldrew!

My limited knowledge had Brigantes as being some form of Celtic Tribe with an affiliation with the Romans!

Any new songs yet dudes? I seen a few of you in Chicago Rock in Warrington, you were quite vocal to be fair and the songs were quite original. How about this one..

Tune of Tom Hark -

April 89, remember the date
The date we beat, the team we hate,
We nilled the Saints on that rainy day,
We're the Ultras and we all say.

We hate Sh*t Helens, We hate Sh*t helens


and so on and so on.

Not at all mate, I see your point. There is nothing wrong with being a Wigan RL supporter, we all are! I think it is more a way of expressing that support (not a level of how much you support the club/team, we all love the club just as much!), in our case through flags and singing and jumping up and down, others will think it is daft and of course they are completely entitled to think that! I think having a name and an identity helps fans, with similar ideas who want to join, to find us and get involved and helps us be more organised with things like speaking to safety officers at clubs. It also allows us to stand together at away games and create a good atmosphere (I do think the atmosphere at away games has improved) but also to keep out the way of those who don't want their view obstructed by flags and banners, we realise that not everybody will want what we do and it would be unfair to impose ourselves on them.

Quote: MattyB "I don't think the Brigantes care about rules...'"

You couldn't be more wrong here, without sticking to the rules set by Wigan and working with them there would be no Brigantes (certainly not at the level it is now), there would be no flags up at home or away games. Members of the group are meeting the safety officer at Warrington tomorrow to hand over some flags and discuss what we can and can't do, people have been giving up their own time all week speaking to various people from Warrington/Wigan/the RFL to sort out what can happen on Saturday. A lot goes on behind the scenes by people who don't like to brag about the hard work they are putting in, statements like yours are wholly untrue and damaging to the reputation of these people!

Quote: MattyB "We're Wigan Rugby, we'll do what we want?'"

Bit of a daft thing to say mate!

Quote: Jimmy Birts Lives On "Nowt mate. I think the idea behind a name of a group is that it brings some sort of organisation to things. It may or may not have been just as successful if we'd have just said lets all meet up as Wigan RL supporters and try to get this, that and the other going at games but I think a name gives it some focus. We're all Wigan RL fans, it just a badge to try and organise people who want to follow the club in a certain way i.e. the songs we sing, the visual impact we want to make etc
Seems to be gathering some momentum'"


I'm a bit too old for all the bouncing up and down but it's great to see the fans organised, passionate and enthusiastic. The flags are fantastic and the singing is superb. It was brilliant at Saints and Warrington, when our fans, led by the Brigs outfanned both sets of their supporters.

Keep it up.

they ARE wigan rl supporters....with a difference.

i was a sceptic, like you, until i went to a fund raiser and found out what they are all about.

where do you think all the posters in the Old Trafford changers at the GF came from?
who erected the flags?
who waves the flags at matches.
and more to the point......who paid for the flags?

they are a growing bunch of passionate fans, who give up lots of time to show the players how much they are appreciated......and the players do take notice.

my knees wont hold up for more than a couple of minutes bouncing, but i'll be waving my NEW BRIGANTE SCARF round my head until the athritis kicks in to my shoulder.

these guys dont want questioning....they want commending and supporting.......and feel free to join in...its not an exclusive group

I didn't mean it like that, I was just referring to the song some of the fans sing.
