There was also a Conga at the back of the south stand, ( didn't last long )
I think it was the same one's who at one stage where bouncing up and down???
They could have fallen over the seats. I was concerned for their safety, I really was.
Que sera sera!!!

Stewards got a bit too heavy handed, started pushing the Wire fans back and getting aggressive, the fans retaliated..steward went down steps.....case closed.

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

As for this 'conga' that has seemingly created so much carnage??...I reckon its a classic case of Wiganers being a bunch of pussys, who need to grow up playing 'let's all snitch to the teacher'... ![]()
It started as a conga, the stewards stepped in, there was a bit of a stand off and then a steward came flying down the steps.
Scum the lot of them, the week following the semi on these boards have proved it, bunch of s after nothing other than a bit of goading, as a collection of fans, I have no time for any of them.
All I can say is thank God we won this week, maybe we will see this forum go back to a forum, not "relevant post, pie eater insult, wembley brag, all you bang on about is history, relevant post"

| Got to say the stewards were abit heavey handed. i know all about safty blah blah blah but why stop the congo? Theres easier ways of dealing with it then standing if there way, trying to take the drums and flags off them and grabbing a few around the neck. What makes the stewards look worse is that after the match they all ran off to the bottom of the pitch 
Didnt see anyone stopping the wigan conga at the end |

It wouldn't be cleaned up anyway, one of my trainers is still on the concourse after sticking to the floor. The bar staff were top draw though...great set of people. |

You are mad. The stewards were clearly told to stop the conga as with quite a few people going down the steps in that manner could be seen as dangerous. They went over trying to stop it and stewards were pushed down the steps.
If you disagree it confirms that you probably did not have full view of the incident. |

I was about 10 rows in front, which I'm guessing was closer than you that is unless you were sat in the Wire end? |

In that case you are just plain daft and trying to defend the situation as it was your kind who started it. |
