Quote: jaws1 "Instead of being at the back of the South stand IMO I think the Brigantes would be more effective at the front of the South stand the glass roof stifles the noise .Try for one match and see how effective it is .'"


Usually being closer to roof helps the noise at stadiums from the ones ive been to. Plus being at front would possibly cause a shedload of aggro with people who just want to sit and watch if theyve got flags blocking their view.

Quote: Odem "You should have seen the look on their faces when they came out for the warm up at Widnes. The noise meeting them was the loudest I have heard us all season.'"


So we're excited about 2012, but imagine how excited the players are now, wanting to get back on the field to hear us again!

The noise from the North stand is far greater because it has a [sizesolid roof [/sizeyou can have 200 people in there and it creates more noise than the South partial glass roof .
I have Sat in the East towards the North Stand and you could not hear the South at all now moved now to the Wigan end on 30 metre line and the noise is not great from the South if the Brigantes occupied the side wing and moved to the front nearest the East stand would not cause much aggro as you would all be in the same area try for one match .

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 - FIOS:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_39110.jpg



The North stand does have much better acoustics but if everyone was singing like at away games then it would be flipping noisey.

Then can we not change to the North for home fans?Like I said previous the noise is lost from the South cos your too high up with the half glass roof it deadens the noise if you were to move to the front and use the end wing to the East stand just as a trial for one match then the East stand can get more involved.

Thats up to the club and not us. The roof is plastic and not glass. We can't go at the front because of the flags and more noise can be made at the back. I don't really want to be at the front either, don't like the view for rugby...

No idea what you are trying to say...

I can't get over how good our fans have been this season. I was speaking to a few Saints fans on my way out of the ground on Saturday and they were saying how good it was, and how annoyed they were that we've eliminated The 'Wigan Walk' (At away games anyway) I'm glad we're winding all the other fans up too.

The athmosphere and noise at away games is better because most of our fans stand together and usuallytravel in organised groups. As jaws1 posted at home games people have their own preferance of stand so the groups get split up .

THE ONE AND ONLY "LATICS" , Ronnie Blair scorer of the goal that wasn't given Oldham Athletic v Man Utd 28th Dec 1975 "Nothing changes":41238.gif



For all the Wigan fans that know me, sending this from my hospital bed at the Royal Oldham having undergone shoulder reconstrcton , it's all that flag waving this season ! the good news is I will be able to handle bigger flags next season. Know how Lee Mossop felt now. Going down to theatre could not stop singing " CHERRY AND WHITE " nurses had a laugh, not that I was !
Can't wait for next season already!

Well done on creating some atmosphere! Must admit When Rovers first came up to SL I was shocked by the lack of it at the majority of grounds. keep it up, it really lifts the team. Who knows you might be able to do away with the drum soon.
