| 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.

Nail on the head.
However, I will have a moan. I'm all for generating more atmosphere, but I don't see the point of someone labelling themselves as a Brigante or Ultra or whatever. Surely we can just generate atmosphere as Wiganers. It's as if they think they are some set of super fans, and has an elitist feel to it. I just don't get it, sorry.

| As mentioned on previous threads, I don't want to be apart of any supporters group but just want to be amongst atmosphere and considering the Brigantes/Ultras are the most vocal bunch, I will sit/stand on the outskirts of their group to be amongst the good atmosphere that they mostly create. Last night was great and it's totally irrelevant what scarf they have, each to their own.
But again, I just don't understand the segregation. Why go in the far wings and why run down to the bottom of the stand which will obviously alert stewards that then leads to visable prevention tactics such as more stewarding with the chief steward filming the group. It just creates negative attention but then again, despite defensive posts by members on here, I think it's what a lot of them want which is a shame because the concept with the right morals is brilliant for Wigan supporters.

I'm pretty sure everybody loves the atmosphere and the effort, but you're right, it does have an elitist (as well as divisive) feel to it.

| The people that are complaining about the thread are the people that are saying they are bored. If you dont like a thread its quite simple, simply dont post at all on it and instead post on the threads that do not bore you, there are plenty to choose from. Its not exactly rocket science.

| Thought it looked a bit daft myself - 20 kids at the front waving scarves and bouncing while the rest - who looked like you supported a different team due to seperation between groups - sat there clapping politely.
Cracking noise though but you need to get another song , that one gets tedious after 60 mins

| One question I do have is, why do the scarves say 'ultras' on them?! If you are there supporting Wigan, then get a scarf that says Wigan. I was proper cringing last night when I saw it on TV with people jumping around with scarves as if to say, "Look how cool we are!!! I'm an ultra!! Yey!"
