| Some people in this group seem more interested in trying to out do other clubs and their supporters rather than what the group was set up for which I thought was to create a better atmosphere. I can't see the Wigan club allowing this group much longer if the actions of a few start to give Wigan a bad name.

And again, just for you.....
You mean the same group that formed in 2009 and haven't had one arrest since forming? That have a fantastic friendship with the club and are in constant contact with the club? The same group that banned one of there own mates from travelling on there coach to away games because he used spray paint at a home fixture and nearly had the group finished? The same group that gave money to charity......I could go on.

Have you read any of my posts??? What antics at Saints? Nothing happened at Saints. The spray paint was one idiot that was dealt with and banned from attending any games with the group, and the stickers have been destroyed.
Next...

| Why are people so obsessed with the Brigantes? It seems after every game theres a 15 page thread slagging them off for no apparrent reason. They want to support the club in perhaps a different way to a lot of people but in all honesty they have caused no real harm and have in fact improved atmosphere at away games. People just seem to have the attitude that because they're different they don't like them as far as I can see.

I've seen a lot more disgraceful behaviour at recent Grand Finals between Stains v Leeds than I have ever seen at Wigan RL matches.

Surely by trying to out do other clubs and it's supporters that will then create a better atmosphere? The whole point of trying to create a good atmosphere in the first place IMO is to try and have a good time whilst also trying to lift the players morale on the field. The whole point of being a 'supporter' is to offer backing to your side to try and help them win games.
I dont know anybody personally from the Brigantes but I enjoy the atmosphere they bring to our games now. I've never seen them running about the place trying to intimidate people like I do at football matches. The group seems to offer a very open door policy to people who want to join in and get involved.
I've said it before but I think it's been brilliant and they've made our support especially away from home the envy of a lot of clubs.
The club should be thankful they've got support like this and I'm sure they are. Nobody would ever back it if it stepped out of line but I've seen no evidence at all of that being the case.

| I fully agree with NickyKiss.
I think what the brigantes has done has been great for the club and I am not aware of any problem they have caused.
Long may it continue. The DW has been dead for many of our games over the years and this group of people have helped to build something at home and some great support away from home.

| Long time reader, first time post!
I'm no kid at +40 years of age, but I get sick of some the moaning that gets posted on here. Not everyone wants to sit down all game moaning about the ref and screaming gerrum on side! Forward you blind git! Bloody refs on their side again! Etc.
Every group will have individuals who push boundaries, the key is to deal with them in a reasonable and appropriate way. This young lad was not!
I stood close by the young lad who threw the toilet roll, he did not intend any malice. It was meant to be a light hearted stunt in response to the banning of flags and drums, the action of the stewards and police was OTT, just like the reaction of some of the posters on here to the Brigantes.
I'm not a member of this group but fully support what they are bringing to the match day experience, and how they have dealt with the one solitary issue at the DW.
Ask your self what do you bring to the match day? Or the greatest club in the world? Is it just your negativity, or maybe you would like a sponsored silence for the whole 80 minutes?

There's nothing wrong with sitting and quietly watching the rugby. Personally I don't enjoy my RL that way. Each to their own.

Never said there was. "not everyone" is the key phrase i used. Definetly agree "each to their own" but don't see the need to constantly criticise those who wish to enjoy the noisier side of supporting our team.
