Think a bans a bit harsh. As I have stated, I started the thread out of curiosity, not to start some kind of war.

Feel free to delete or lock the thread Mods if that would be best.

Dont be ridiculous. It seems to be fine if people talk about how great the Brigantes/Ultras (or whatever they are called this week) are but any criticism, no matter how small or constructive it is, and people react in a complete over the top reaction like this. It was similar on the swearing thread last week with Brigantes members belittling peoples genuine concerns because they thought it was big and clever to chant songs with swear words in it when there were easy compromises/alternatives.

I dont like the way they purposely set out to be so devisive and have a if you are not with us you are aginst us attitude. Many of peoples fears and concerns could have been sorted out at the start of the year, it really didnt take much. However as far as I can see it there is absolutely no compromise, no taking on board peoples concerns and a general screw you we will do as we please attitude to the rest of the supporters.

Like i said nothing against you mate i meant from now on ban for a week sick of seeing the same thing on here

Join the Brigantes thread sweepstake pal - makes it more interesting. How many pages this week?

Just realised I'm not helping myself by posting here

Ban people who post about Brigantes/Ultras?

It's comments like that that exacerbate the issue, especially when the OP raised a valid question in a totally non-confrontational way and even complimented the Brigantes! Just like the swearing thread when a couple of posters jumped in to claim it was a Brigantes-bashing thread when they hadn't even been mentioned. Perhaps there's a bit of victim mentality going on.

Do what you want it doesn't matter to me if you have 10 or 10,000 each to there own just sick of about 10 threads with the same stuff all over the forum just have 1 and talk about it there thats all im saying

There's 1, and this is it. Massive over-reaction and dummy-spit from you.

You can see what the topic is about from the title. Simply don't open it and read through it.

Read something you do have interest in, it's really not that hard.

Ultras/Brigantes = Chavs

Sh/te scarves.

End of.

It's great isn't it?



The only positive I can take from this is that it's a sign that everything else is going well. There's nothing else for Wigan fans to complain about.

How I hark back to the days of the simple finger point.

Doesn't matter what they are called to me. They have brought back something we have been missing for a while. Atmosphere!!!!

As soon as I saw the shot on sky of all the kids with those scarves and the one with his face covered I just knew there would be a thread about it , Getting a bit tedious now but I guess I'd rather see people moaning about teenagers with ultra scarves than the team being crap. Don't agree with the face being covered by scarf thing but they aren't hurting anyone... yet... and the atmosphere sounded great on the tv.
