It's now known as the Brigantes brand. They actually take themselves seriously. I can't see how any of them can actually manage to watch a game with all those bloody flags in the way.

| Quote ="just_browny"Drummer types do have a particular bizarre, arrogant attitude towards other fans, and it's not just a Warrington thing. You see the same on the Leeds, Wigan, even Salford forums where anyone who doesn't want to go home with a headache is automatically calling for complete silence.
Of course, on the Wigan forum they've got a bit more of a point because if you hang out near the Ultras you're likely to end up with 'S2' aerosolled onto your clothes by [uurchins in cherry and white balaclavas[/u.'"
a few thousand hard core "Where's Wallys"
My first game at the new look stadium, and I was hoping all the drums, trumpets, triangles etc, might have been buried under the foundations of the new corners, in a Blue Peter time capsule stylee....ah well.

| This is how it's going to be from now on in! Successful club poor atmosphere!!! Since we won the cup in 2009 it's been on the decline! People get use to winning! That atmosphere today summoned us up! Saints, Wigan, Widnes, Leeds are the only games when we'll raise the game! Forget moaning at drums! It’s what makes wire!!! I almost miss getting beat off saints in the last 10 seconds because of the atmosphere them games generate!!! Come on wire, today cannot be the norm!!! Let’s get back to being vocal and proud! FROM THE CRADLE TO THE GARVE! WIRE TILL I DIE!!!

Drums are not what makes Wire. If you think that, then you are seriously deluded. You can be vocal without drums and you don't have to sing to make noise.

| Wliderspool, Haliwell jones, don't remember much without the drums? Perhaps i'm deluded? You can be vocal without the drums, but we're not at the moment? Unless you think otherwise?

Stop complaining about the bloody drums i am sick of people going on and on and on about them if you don't like them then do something about it rather than being a keyboard warrior and putting it on RLfans.

No, you're not deluded...just someone of your time. It's not your fault you weren't able to witness what the Fletcher End used to be like, pre drums. Believe me, it was great. No one with their backs to the action, no one texting, just people intent on watching the match, and creating a great atmosphere
e.g. WWIII New years day 88
beating Wids, Prem 86 Rnd 1
finally beating Wigan 97, at home, after 11 years
v Hull (and Billy Thompson) March 83
just 4 off the top of my head, without the aid of a drum.
IMO, the HJ would be a great venue, if people payed attention to the game, and not treated it like a coffee morning/mother's meeting

Lancs Cup sardine tin semi-final in 89.
Australia 92(?) The one where Tony Thorniley kept hammering Big Mal.

Keyboard Warrior? Not me. I'm sick of people complaining about the lack of atmosphere. I wasn't aware that I wasn't allowed to have an opinion.

| I'm thoroughly enjoying being a Wire fan at the moment. I've been going regularly since 86 - trust me there have been some long, lean, dark years where we could only dream about being a table topping, trophy winning team that could rack up big scores whilst playing well below our best! Yes, there's been a few bright spots along the way but we've never ever been as strong both on and off the field.
Yet people are moaning because at times there isn't enough singing / shouting / chanting / noise from a drum? Really?

Forgot that LCSF V the Smellies in 89, GDMM....it was BOUNCING that night
The Aussie one was 90, and Thorniley had a blinder that night.....great night
One out of the blue
THAT game v Cas, 93-94. John Smith "refereed" and he came up with one of the most biased performances EVER
We[u BATTERED [/uthem, yet were still losing with 5 minutes to go, enter Johnnie the Sheep with a bomb which would have worried astronauts in a space station, Steadman drops it (surprise) and Cullen scores the easiest try in his career.......cue the roof being ripped off The Fletch...awesome

I remember reading in a match day programme that Thursfield was 24 (at that time). Couldn't believe it - his BeeGee beard made him look 39.
Oh, and I'd just like to complain about the drums. I hate them and want them banned.

Remember that one well, BWW
There were 2 fellas infront of me, and as soon as Thursfield touched down, one bloke handed the other a fiver.
One of the "poorest" players ever....but the crowd reacted to his moment of glory
