Not really no. It's certainly no different to what's been said by wire fans about Wigan fans; there are certain posters all over these forums that readily tar every supporter of a particular team as something.
As for the 'wolfs' thing, you're clearly being obtuse, it's no different to someone saying dire, wigoon, stains, whinos, etc ad infinitum

He wrote it on the Wigan board, how can it be trolling, unless his aim was to troll his fellow Wigan fans or indeed himself?
As for the 'wolf' bit, I take it back what I said above, he managed to troll a Wire fan on the Wigan board, I'd give him extra points for that!

| I think the best thing we could do is introduce a ‘RLFANS Respect policy’ to go alongside the AUP. This would be a policy that accepts that people can make the odd joke and the odd criticism. But not to overdo it because it effects the enjoyment of other users.
I think that PHIPPS should be used as a case study and an example of what not to be like. Hopefully we can have a ‘star poster’ as well who people can fallow in the example of. Personally I’d choose Rogue Gallery who likes a bit of a laugh at anyone's expense (Leeds Rhinos from time to time in my experiance ) but always contributes well to the forums as well. It's about balance.

It's sweeping generalisations ( [ie.g. Wigan have been crap throughout their entire history[/i ) that are often referred to as 'trolling' hence my point.
I'm not at all being obtuse about '[iwolfs[/i'. Many mildy-insulting nicknames ( like Dire, Stains etc ) are quite witty. What's witty about not knowing the plural of a word?

Trolling is generally accepted as posting something simply to stir up other readers/posters. Any others have pointed out, this board is not a private club open only to unquestioning Wigan fans, so of course such an insulting generalisation is trolling.

I believe it stems from a picture of three wolfs fans standing next to a wall on which someone had spraypainted the word "Wolfs". I'm sure someone will have the picture.
