39110_1363272058.jpg 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

| Would only happen if everybody who wants to sing was in one place. At Saints every year we have about 500 people towards the back of the stand making sure our end is bouncing. Surely most of these people go to home games so if we could get at least 100 people all stood together then others would follow and join in, this in turn would be enough to get the stadium rocking. I would be happy to move to the south if such an area existed but untill then I would rather have my better view of the game in the East.

| Will never happen unfortunately hence why i gave up and moved to the east stand some years ago. There's a few at the back of the South and some at the back of the East who do try but to no avail. I still get the odd shout of sit down if I so much as jump up when we make an exciting run or something similar.
Away games are still 10 times better but even some of our away support is getting lethargic now.

We'll have to build something up at away games first I reckon. Starting at Huddersfield!

| 90% of people just want to watch the game, rather than have to stand up for 80 minutes singing and dancing.

Couldn't agree more mate. It's the 10% who want to sing who have difficulty in getting anything going at places like the DW.

I wouldnt even try, the flags are brilliant, it shows the passion without the need for voice.
I'd just concentrate on taking over away grounds, much more fun

51917_1302207978.jpg [quote="Rob Wire":qtnftxzx]WIGAN ARE BACK to what exactly ? Oh i see what you mean, back to beating weakened teams. How many key players did we have missing in the cup ?
Just remind us again how many key players did Saints have missing in last years grand final ?
When did you actually last beat a strong Saints or Warringtom team ? Don't include beating us last year at the HJ, we had a lead of around 14pts and were cruising then we lost both Briers and Monaghan, another example of Wigan capitalising on other teams misfortunes.[/quote:qtnftxzx]

| the only way we could manage to build a bit of atmosphere, like others have said, get everyone who wants to to sit at the top of the south near the east. That way everyones together.

| One big factor about the lack of atmosphere is the design of the stadium.
