Quote: Dave26 "The skulls symbolise support beyond the grave, undying love for the club (hence the Cherry and White bar scarf). They aren't intended as an intimidating symbol, we took onboard the critisicism of the image and made it more "Wigan-esque" with the addition of the flat cap and pipe, a little tongue in cheek representation of our Northern roots, the text "Northern And Proud" speaks for itself! A skull itself isn't necessarily related to Wigan, but neither is the image of a Warrior
No, your just hooligans that shame this rugby league club, your also Nazi's. icon_lol.gif

Personally I cant see the opinions of a few tools on this thread actually effecting what the Brigantes do in terms of displays, we have 10,000 season ticket holders, 10 people's opinions on here are quite irrelevant. Just keep picking out the bad points rather than appreciating the hard work and the displays, its hilarious.

Who are the tools? Oh sorry, can we not give some constructive feedback to your precious little group??

Personally as many have tirelessly said on the thread I like what the Brigantes are trying to do, the flags are brillant and the atmosphere is improving at home matches.

What I do not see the point in is the Brigantes image trying to class themselves as an "Ultra" with skulls etc and plastering stickers all over opposing clubs grounds and acting the big ones about it on twitter. This has been tirelessly made clear by a few posters but it seems that rather than take it on the chin you take the negative approach and call them 'tools.'

Get a grip ffs.

Tis my view that most of the people who attend the game just not see the group as in anyway intimidating. "Tools" is of course too strong a word, but the people who regularly post the negatives can hardly be taken as representatives of Wigan fans as a whole, or indeed posters on this site as a whole.

Apart from the odd sensitive soul I doubt anyone actually finds them intimidating.

Most people who are saying "negative" things have actually qualified it and said they like what the group are doing and how they are improving the atmosphere at games. However for the most part the "negative" things being pointed out are due to the actions of individuals associating with the group and causing criminal damage or other forms of vandalism using Brigantes "branding". I doubt most people in the Brigantes want any part of that either so I don't know why it is causing so much consternation for some that something that actually happened is being discussed?

For me what is actually making things worse is the attitude of some posters who seem to be the unofficial/official spokesmen of the Brigantes with their childish name calling and extremely defensive attitude to any kind of opinion that is not happy with the vandalism, or who point something out. Their attitude has done the group a bigger disservice than a couple of S2s left about.

On the whole i agree with you. Sadly, those who make the most noise on either side, get the most attention.

spot on! luckily I asked a genuine question re the skulls and got a sensible answer but have seen other people ask sensible questions and get called or simply told come to the meeting but thats not going to possible for all fans to do.

I understand why Brigantes are sticking up for themselves as there are people on here who want to see them fail and have tried to mock but as a group you have to rise above it and try and inform and educate people to what it is you are hoping to achieve and you will get more people on board. At times it seems its your either with us or against us with the Brigantes and it shouldnt be like that no fan is better than the next and no ones views are more importnat than the next person.

You should keep up the good work with improving atmosphere at home and away games but rise above the negativity maybe even put you minutes from the meetings on here so your aims are documented to all fans and hopefully people will buy in it with donations and support

Thats the impression I have got from reading this thread also

The only answers that seem to be given are either churlish remarks telling people they are wrong or 'come to the next meeting'

No offence, but I dont personally have the time or inclination to attend a meeting just to be treated in the same way as the responses from various posters on this thread

This is supposed to be an open forum used for discussion on rugby league related topics yet certain posters seem incapable of having a discussion about this particular topic...

I appeciate constructive feedback and I have also discussed certain matters with people that are willing to discuss it in a constuctive manner, what is ridiculous is certain posters who, tend to wait for the slightest thing to go wrong and cant wait to jump all over it and claim "this is why I dont want to get involved" when in the real world, they were never going to "get involved" in the first place. Why are you getting so defensive? I wasn't aiming the "tool" part at you was I? Im absoulutely sick to death of explaining why people chose to use the name "ultra" so I wont go into that. However, the sticker and graffiti issue was duly noted and dealt with, which is what I mean by taking note of CONTRUCTIVE feedback.

As for "Gareths" posts, I dont understand mate, can you point out the "Childish" remarks and explain what you mean?

You wouldn't be treated any different to anyone else at a meeting, you tend to have to complete wrong idea of what this whole thing is about. One particular comment about people "inflicting unwanted noise" on you did make me laugh though, maybe you should try going watching snooker or something.
