| Where have i condoned the rubbish behaviour of some of our fans, i dont' agree with it. But it seems that you are quick to moan about trouble when it happens, but not so happy to listen when someone raises concern as to a member of your fan unit provoking such behaviour with his clothing. Some of you can see why it would be reason for concern, obviously the rest of you are too biased to think anything like this could happen at wigan.
Also, someone was quick to say they werent wearing a wigan shirt so not a wigan fan, but alot of those idiots outside the kings head arent wearing warrington colours, so how can you be sure they were our fans, not just lager louts out for a fight after seeing the local rivals beat us. Also, i notice there is no-one fighting but just standing outside a pub?

THIS
What alot of people don't see is the Brigantes/Ultras whatever you want to call it was started by a group of fans who wanted to bring a better atmosphere to our games and through sheer hard work and determination are making that happen.
Alot of work still goes on behind the scenes and away from games to look after the flags, put them up take them down, sort it out, official meetings, unofficial meetings, alot of folk forget this and think its all about a p**s up at the game and jump on the band wagon.
Keep jumping and singing and waving cos it's ace just lets not forget there is more to it than that.

Trying to claim the moral high ground? Nice try. How did you see this "Where's Wally" ski mask from the other side of the ground?

The police car in the pic and the the policemen and dogs in the King's Head area I saw upon leaving the ground would suggest the police at least were worried about trouble and were taking preventative action. Anyway, carry on trying to deflect criticism away from Warrington, you're doing quite a good job.

Answer to point one, the south stand, which is full of warrington fans including myself, is located next to the stand in which you were in, which made it pretty easy to spot this mug with his ski mask.
A suggestion of trouble between two rival supporters, surprise surprise, police turn up at all sorts of things to prevent trouble, doesn't mean there was any.
I am just using the same spin doctor tactics you've been applying to anything i said, and it seems you don't like it when the shoes on the other foot. I do not condone ANY violence or threat thereof, whether it be from so called warrington fans, or so called wigan fans. Seems you're only bothered if it is a warrington fan that is making the accusation, pretty sure if a wiganer had raised this issue you would all be saying how terrible it is in our game. The more you post, the more i think the idiot was probably you or one of your mates, seeing as how your so quick to dismiss it.

For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.

Wigan had eight in a row

| So why comment on ONE fan in a crowd of over 13,000 (the majority of us didn't see him).
Anyway come up to Wigan tonight and meet the people involved, you'll find a cross section of ages and views amd you'll be made more than welcome.
We always value constructive criticism.

sorry mate, i would but i can't. I imagine it would be a great laugh, and i've already commented on how good your fans were at the weekend, work at a pub outside of the town, and had to shoot off about 15 mins before the end to start my shift, was speaking with loads of wigan fans that night and had some cracking banter with them too. I'm not judging those of you that are there so support your team in a great way, just pointing out that i noticed an idiot who will give you a bad reputation when he's dressed intimidatingly stood right in front of your flag.
If it had been a warrington fan, then i'm sure wigan fans would have been quick to comment also, and rightly so.
You say your open to criticism, but most of the responses on here have quickly dismissed anything i've said, and i can't imagine that i would be welcomed to come along when they won't even listen on a forum like this.

Do you fly jets for a living? Because you've got some fantastic eyesight there.

A history of trouble*. The RL paper reporter that witnessed three seperate attacks on Wigan fans at the hands of Warrington hooligans would mean that there was indeed trouble.

Thanks for proving how ridiculous a statement your initial one was. Unfortunately some Wigan fans ready to rubbish the efforts of the Brigantes were too quick to jump all over it.

Either that or your blind, i have decent eyesight yes, but it was pretty obvious to see one face out of however many covered in red and white.
Again, well done on dismissing everything i've said. However as i said, warrington fan says it, it's rubbish. A paper says it then it's concrete. DID YOU WITNESS ANY OF THOSE ATTACKS? i don't think so because you've just said the paper said, and not you saw, i saw your idiot in the ski mask, simple as. I can't comment on things i don't see.

Apart from the ski mask. Prove it, or stop disrupting the thread, you've got your two pages of bites.
