Couldnt have said it better myself
Most years i go to the HJ, i get some idiot in the towncentre either goading me or throwing some insulting gesture. Im sure Warrington have lots of genuine fans who would be great to have a chat with they just seem to have an unusually large hooligan element akin to football. Take the wigan vs crusaders away game when they had a gang of fans in the corner of our end who had turned up for nothing more than to cause trouble signing anti-wigan fans through the whole game.
I think its something to do with them building on a small foundation of core fans in the last decade now alot of Warrington fans have only been watching the game for 4,5,6 years as evidenced by the growing crowds year on year, theyve probably been brought up on football where this sort of hooliganism is the norm.

I think it's more to do with how we're 'welcomed' every year to your ground. Maybe Yicker or Mini Yicker (both females who were assaulted by males) will be around to shed some light on it for you.*
*yes we have had some trouble makers this season but they appear to be one-offs whereas it happens EVERY year at the HJ (sometimes even though we aren't playing Wire) and I also believe some wire fans were fighting on the retail park last week

I've been following wire since 1988 and have never, ever seen any wire male fans attacking any female fans. I'd be as disgusted as you if this was the case but
there are plenty of myths flying around.

if you're comments were uncomfortably true you must be squirming in discomfort at all the responses you so blatantly failed to answer.

I was awaiting a response from you lot to my statements and if they weren't true a rebuttal.
How can I respond to 'Awww bless' and the like. Thankyou to 'to old to die young' for your compassion in these superleague times.

| Modesty and honesty died with the Millennium give it up Gazwire.
Some Wire fans are bad some Wigan fans are bad, yet Wire fans will close their eyes to all the scummy element and rip in to other teams.
Wigan are also in the same boat yet will always deflect it with Wire are the only ones with scummy fans.
Don't be so defensive, you're on the Wigan site and you're shocked at the partisan response ?
I don't get why people need to go beyond banter and turn it in to something it needn't be.
I don't hate Wigan, i don't want them to win games but i don't hate them, i walked back from the recent game with a wigan fan and enjoyed the banter.
It's understandable that Wigan fans would want Saints to win
1) Saints win practically gives Wigan the league leaders shield
2) Saints more illustrious history helps to back up any arrogant comment a Saints fan might come out with plus the better recent history (to a Saints fan) trumps Wigans bigger haul of trophies.
If i was in Wigans position i would want whoever was in 3rd to win, it's just common sense.

shambawamby and Conroy both replied to you. In any case I'm not sure why you're going on about some game at Odsal, rugby league didn't exist then remember. What doesn't help your reputation is when players like Richie Myler and agent Mathers start making gestures to our fans, but your fans certainly didn't help your reputation with their defence of the indefensible behaviour after the game at the HJ. Look mate, all fans have idiots and I actually find this quite pathetic really but when stuff happens you're best just sticking to the fact you think its disgusting and leaving it at that. Way too many of your fans go down the route of denial, they must have been provoked, didn't see it so its just Wigan fans stirring things etc. And it becomes a pattern after a while. Incidentally I went to Wilderspool with my dad when I was about 9 or 10 and had the shirt ripped off my back by a middle aged bloke. I'm 29 now and I've been to Warrington once since then, and there was fighting that time so I don't bother anymore. So frankly if any regular fans deny a problem they're either blind, lying or have really strange standards of acceptable behaviour themselves.
As for Wire_Yed's post he's pretty much spot on and I've mentioned it before but when we played Bradford in the GF a good few years back I left after about 30 mins because it was my sister in laws first game and Wigan fans around me were ripping seats up jumping over rows of seats and smacking each other, one bloke who had 2 kids with him used me as a prop so he could punch a random bloke in front of me and the stewards did nothing. There were literally 3 or 400 people involved and I never heard it mentioned anywhere so we clearly have idiots but having been watching Wigan since I was 3 this was the only time I've seen people in Wigan shirts involved in trouble and at Grand Finals you just know that the vast majority only bother going when its a final, even so I wrote on forums how disgusted and ashamed I was. Now it may be that your idiots regard Wigan games as a final and there's no trouble at your other games but it might go some way to explaining some of the Wigan fans feelings towards you.

Im going to have my two pennies worth in this.
Firstly I think every team you would take over 35000 fans to Wembley when you only get there once every 937 years.
As for the 2nd point you must of only started supporting Wire since Smith has been in charge as you clearly missed Cullen's last season in charge, to make a statement like.
And finally for the last point see the above point by moi.
Nice dummy spit by the way

Are you happy to class that as winning a trophy? I wouldn't be. I'd want one of the big three. Although I think you will win the Grand final, your defence is too strong and attack too clasy not to. Leeds are your biggest fear.

Not a myth pal! Was there with around 30 other Wiganers who were outnumbered and set upon by Wire fans!! Now I would possibly go with the notion that they arent real Wire fans but Im pretty sure this imaginary 35thou that went to Wembley contained a few of these!!

Like you said it's not a myth, but i also can't see you being outnumbered when 30 odd of you are there, but the HJ does not help warrington because it is located right next to the town centre so all the drunken chavs hanging around the centre come to the ground when the game finishes, i think what annoys Wire fans is that when are "fans" do something it's all over the forums, what's that going to achieve nothing!!, when i was at wigan about 4 - 5 years ago i had similar incident happen to me, like what happened to the Wigan lady what was punched and a friend with his family his car was smashed up on are last visit, but i didn't come spouting it on here calling Wigan fans "scum" of rugby league and tarnishing everyone with the same brush, i rang the police and try to get it sorted the proper routes which was pointless because the police are a tad useless.
