I don't think the title of the thread is representative of many giants fans. It is representative of all the Giants who have posted on it and haven't said it was OTT.
"we already have"
I was referring to lingfield warrior as they seem to have a massive problem with Huddersfield supporters. We don't have a problem with Huddersfield supporters at all especially the few who turn up to games.'"

| Quote: meast "just after kick off, some wigan fans turned up and demanded they use the seats they had on their tickets, when we told them that the stewards told us to sit where we wanted they started kicking off, even though stewards told them they could sit anywhere they wanted, they insisted on sitting in the seats on their tickets. so after 4/5 minutes of arguments and giants fans telling stewards to let us move into the north stand, they agreed.'"
Who were these plebs? They should be named and publicly humiliated, and then never let inside the stadium again.

| Everyone justifies it by it was only a bus load of Huddersfield fans there were far more lat night.
The stewards threatened a Huddersfield lady if she didn't hide her flag five minutes before that huge Wigan number 18 flag was unfurled on the other side. The steward was arrogant over bearing and said he would take her flag if she didn't hide it under her seat. Then low and behold the Wigan flag went up which was ten times and more the Huddersfield flags size that was supposed to be dangerous according to the steward.
Huddersfield fans after a long journey arriving at 7.30pm onwards were struggling to find seats as Wigan fans were in the middle of the stand and yet on the right hand side of the ground there were lots of empty seats at both ends of the side on stand.
Your stewards left an awful lot to be desired and Wigan chose to sell Groupon tickets to anyone so why make the Huddersfield end awkward we just came to support our team nothing else !!

At what point did it become unreasoned debate?

| So, we have an allegation of poor behaviour among the Wigan fans and the steward, and the old "Wigan walk" chestnut.
In a reasoned response to these disproportionate slights on our great club I am happy to swing to our whole hearted defence. In comparing and contrasting the behaviour of our fans and our club, it is moot to compare and contrast that, wittily if I may so, with the relative numbers and behaviour of the club making the allegations.
Now, if the Giants fans want to reconsider and begin a thread entitled "We could learn so much from Wigan fans and the Wigan club" then that would be fitting and appropriate.
By all means lay into our half backs and front rowers relative to the Giants' counterparts, but please, spare us the attacks on our fans and club.

| Since when is a description of events an attack on your club ???
I have watched RL for 50 years at Central Park Fartown et all !!!!
The stewarding on Friday night was poor I would not expect the same to happen to the away fans at our ground.
Whether it was the DW or the Wigan club that allowed this to happen I don't know but it shouldn't be repeated.
As for criticising your team nope on the night we just did it better but then again over the last 50 years it's been Wigan more often than not in that position not us.
You have a trip to Wembley to enjoy have a great time and may the best team win !!

Didnt see any misbehaving Wigan fans - just a handful complaining about something the stewards had decided to do and kicking up a fuss about it rather than just finding spare seats like most people did quite happily. The stewards were fine and there was little they could have done in the end other than what they did do.

| The East and West stands at Wigan are allocated seating. That means that you sit on the same seat as your ticket number. What's so difficult to understand about that?
