The matter was dealt with. Does it matter how?

Yes, it does

People on this thread have said that the group are being policed? By whom and in what way? What happens if one of the group has afew too many sherberts and does something they shouldnt. will they be dealt with in the same way as the moron with the paint can?

This is the problem with self policing, it very often leads to one rule for us and one rule for everyone else

Been banned by who ?, the club (that's their decision), or, the 'brigantes' (who have no power to ban anyone from the DW), the matter has been dealt with, the 'culprit' has been admonished, if you need any more information please attend the next meeting (time and date with be announced on here), thank you.

it appears your group facilitated the banning of one person by naming and shaming him to the club, did you do the same with the flare culprit by notifying the RFL or hull kr (was it there? can't remember specifics)

what do you mean by admonished?

admonish
· v. reprimand firmly. Ø earnestly urge or warn.
– DERIVATIVES admonishment n. admonition n. admonitor n. admonitory adj.
– ORIGIN ME amonest ‘urge, exhort’, from OFr. amonester, based on L. admonere ‘urge by warning’.

If this matter was dealt with by the club, perhaps you should ask them...

Yes

If your that interested you (And anyone else) is more than welcome to our next meeting. Maybe you can pick up that Ultras Badge you've been PMing me about for the last 12 months?

(PS - My 1 and only post on this thread and it will be my last.)

Firstly, it wasn't a flare, and secondly, neither the RFL or Hull KR wanted to know his/her identity.

is this still going!?? Gonna end up like the Christ Joynt involuntary tackle thread!

thanks for asking yes he's OK.

it seems that most people are being evasive or obtuse, the point i was trying to make was that nobody informed or reported the name of the culprit at the hullkr match but chose to following the spray paint incident. double standards????
i don't know. just putting the question out there.
maybe i will attend one of your meetings, pick up my ultra badge for my collection and have a reasoned debate about rugby league in general, i work nights so will have to wait until my nights off match up with a meeting.
there appears to be a lot of defensive posting on here to what i feel are valid questions. i'm not critisizing the ultra's or what they try and do for their club... fair play to your enthusiasm. i just wondered about the real issues arround self policing and who has a say in the decision making process. flipant posts including posting a definition of a word rather than outlining what actual actions were taking just makes it look like you've got something to hide imo, or it hasn't been thought through and knee jerk reactions to each incident as and when it happens will be the order of the day.

I was not being flippant, and you have taken my post out of context. I stated that i am not a member of the group, and that action had supposedly been taken by the club, the club being WRLFC not the Ultras/brigantes, and that you should ask the club. Instead you have just kept banging on about this matter. The group cannot police anything, but seem to have helped the appropriate authorities when a very small problem arose. They did this instead of just being "Indignant of Wigan" on a website.

The name of the 'culprit' would have been given over the Hull KR incident but (as I put in the previous post) it was not wanted/needed/requested by their or Wigan's officials, as for the incident at the DW, the 'culprit' came forward and admitted what had happened and rang the club to offer to clean off the paint themselves, regarding what actions have been taken against the said 'culprit', this was considered not something to be published on an Internet forum but kept in house, if you really want to know, please attend the next meeting and we will attempt to answer all of your concerns, the matter is now over with, and both the 'Brigantes/Ultras and the club satisfied with the outcome.

Is he now sleeping with the fishes
