I hope you don't mind me saying this and I think I am right in saying that the word "ultra" in sport has negative connotations and is often stereotyped or perceived to be some kind of "chav/troublemaking" section of support, particularly in football.

It is clear this "movement" is a million miles away from that and as I've stated in my previous post it's already very good and the expansion of it i.e. more flags, more colour, new and different ideas can only add further to the matchday experience, both home and away icon_smile.gif

In the UK "Ultra" is seen as "Hooligan". On the continent though "Ultras" are just die hard, ultra-passionate fans. The Ultras I met at Schalke were some of the nicest guys I've ever met who would do anything for the club.

Banner by the Schalke Ultras (Ultras GE), celebrating Twente's Dutch championship. The banner was put up in the Nordkurve (Schalke's South Stand equivalent) as the two teams fans are really close. The Schalke fans felt almost as proud and happy about Twente's victory as if Schalke had won the Bundesliga.

I don't know wether anyone has already posted this link before, they're the Aberdeen Ultras, sadly not going anymore but some of the things they did looked great, the pictures on hear may give people a few ideas on what to do next.

Quote: Jimmy Birts Lives On "I prefer to look at Ultras groups in a positive light and believe that they exist to create noise, colour. passion and to bring stadiums to life. The UK Ultras scene is non-violent. It's just about trying to improve the atmosphere and matchday experience.
There are even Ultras groups in French Rugby Union like Ultras Sapiac. If you have a look at them, it's all sections of the support, young & old who are involved.'"


It's not necessarily something I thought about the "UK Ultras scene" but I would assume that's what some people may think when they hear that name.

A club like Wigan should have a section of support which is as dedicated to this kind of movement as other clubs in other sports. I wasn't really aware of the situation abroad and it is quite easy to generalise clubs, particularly in Europe, as having hooligan fans.

My knowledge of French RU is primitive so it is nice to be enlightened.
