Whenever anyone on this forum last year had the temerity to wave warning flags around the emerging [iS2 [/iand [iUltras[/i "brands", they were shouted down by the various bullies attached to the more militant brigade on here. I'm fairly sure there's no satisfaction in being proved right, but you were warned and did nothing.

Kick out the little tw**z now before it's too late.

What I saw today was shameful. Wigan fans were great apart from these fools fighting each other . Get over and support latics if you want to behave like that.

they carried on into the town centre and train station what a set of idiots !

Sad to hear that a number of you have had your day spoilt by a small minority. hopefully it will be nipped in the bud sooner rather than later. Every club has their idiots, there was a stage during the summer where a few at Warrington decided to imitate the Briganthings but fortunately they got bored after a while.

Everyone should be able to go to a game home or away, enjoy it in the company of RL fans regardless of their club then go home without having felt intimidated or offended.

not just their behaviour today but the atmosphere from the wigan fans was poor, apart from a few hundred moaning along to a drum and the odd 'wigan wigan' chant there was hardly any atmopshere from wigan fans which was surprising as you are usually excellent vocally.
as for the numpties,im afraid they are an embarrassment to your club, i caught sight of a few after the game with hood up and scarves over their faces and i thought how pathetic they looked.
there was also an argument in the car park with some dodgy looking lads in a car who were trying to leave the car park and couldnt understand why they had to wait and were getting very agressive with the attendant who was fighting a losing battle trying to explain that they couldn't just drive down the ramp with hundreds of people walking about.
anyway i hope for your genuine fans sake you get rid of these idiots as i really cant see what,if anything they bring to games apart from trouble.

Can we stop with the "go and watch Latics" e please? I see far more incidents at rugby matches than I do at football matches. Stop pretending rugby league is as clean as a whistle.

It's cleaner than football and we'd like it to stay that way.

I warned against the "Ultras" and was shouted down. I can understand that, people didn't see any harm in it and wanted to protect their club. Unfortunately, such groups attract the wrong sorts of people and give them an outlet to behave in the manner they feel most drawn to as we are seeing.

Didn't see a problem with the Wigan atmosphere before this lot came on to the scene, you were a good semi loud bunch of fans and they weren't needed and now they are proceeding to soil your situation.

As stated, I see more incidents at rugby than I do at football.

Yes football has more problems in regards to things like racism but at RL recently we have had homophobic abuse hurled at players. Some songs from teams are getting worse and worse by the year.

The reason you see less incidents at soccer events is because they are heavily policed, fans are segregated and visitors are transported to designated pubs and their stand in convoys like cattle contaminated with foot and mouth. I for one don't want that in our game.

I said when they started up that it would turn sour.

The club should kill them off now before they bring shame to your club

Really? I've NEVER experienced that in the 20 years that I've been watching football.

BTW, I'm not defending the Brigantes here I'm defending the reputation of Wigan Athletic fans.

You haven't? It's common place across the country. Often, coaches are made to pull up out of town where police hand out match tickets to make sure the right people are getting them. Then they are escorted into the place they are playing and heavily policed to make sure there are no clashes with home fans.

I've been made to pull over on a coach and then given an escort all together to the ground at some places but I've never had the police hand me my match ticket. I've never been "treated like cattle" either even when I've caught the train to matches. I've even stayed over in places and been out around town drinking with no problems at all.

Maybe that proves my point slightly that Wigan Athletic fans have no such reputation as some on here would like to believe?
