What made us look like "hooligans" in the first place?

When you used to call yourselves the ultras, sorry i wasn't saying that you did. But merely stating that said individual made you look like a hooligan faction rather than a bunch of vocal and supportive fans. It's late, I'm rambling and not being very clear, sorry.

Not at all, as i've already said, your guys support was great at the weekend, only the one idiot who had a ski mask on made the whole thing look foolish. It was a genuine question to know if any of you know him, or even approve of him wearing the mask. Unfortunately some people think anyone on the wigan board not a wigan fan is a troll.

not going this meeting but Cam's drum will cost about £60 if somebody can sort that out

That's a bit harsh. To be fair to TOW, I wouldn't be too impressed if there was someone at the match wearing a ski mask. It gives off the wrong impression. We want to be known as a group that goes along to support our team, not to overtly intimidate others in that way. It just smacks of the Italian football hooligans that have hijacked the "ultras" ideology to suit their own violent agenda.

My bad, i didn't realise what with all the brigantes pics, badges etc.
I don't condone anything those so called wire 'fans' have done over the weekend, i don't see any need for it in our game and that is the reason i raised my concern on a thread about the brigantes, as he appeared to be a member given where he was stood.
But it's okay, sweep it under the rug and ignore it the intimidation factor of anyone wearing a skimask in public.

Agreed, it does not belong in our game, and as many of you have pointed out before, you aren't about hooliganism, just sheer support (which i applaud), but when someone wears a ski-mask it smacks of hooliganism and shouldnt be condoned at all.

Was it definitely a Wigan fan? Wigan shirt or anything? My guess is it's probably one of those that come for the big games and don't really care about the bad image they give of Wigan fans to everyone (as proven by your post)

I didn't see anyone with a ski mask on, but I did see several Wire fans making "come on" gestures towards the general Wigan direction, they looked like hooligans.

not sure about shirt, but it looked like last years away shirt, black with silver? anyway he was stood in front of the irregulars banner, so i'd guess he was wigan with it being a cherry and white skimask,sort of where's wally-esque. Agreed though, there is no place for it in our sport, if only some of the other wigan fans agreed like you and conroy rather than dismissing it as nonsense like the muppet above. As i said though, you boys/girls really sang your hearts out that day and what an atmosphere it was so congrats, just wanted to point out how it could seem to kids, women etc. Not really great to be associated with as a unit of brigantes/ultras etc.

You wore a cherry and white scarf and sang, sometimes very loudly. At one point you swang the scarf above your head. I was intimidated

Maybe you should concern yourself with the 100 or so wire 'fans' or 'casuals' as they liked to be called waiting outside the kings head pub for a fight rather than one person wearing a ski mask. Never before have I seen fans have to be protected by police and police dogs at a game until last saturday.
p.s i was stood near the irregulars banner all game and post match during the celebrations and never saw a ski mask.

Indeed, not sure if it's the same pub or not but the crowd outside the pub opposite Central station was far more intimidating than someone wearing a red and white striped mask. People in glass houses etc etc.
