MattyB anyone?

Just thought I'd say high didn't think it was worth starting a new thread to introduce my self so gonna do it here, little bit about myself I'm a Structural Engineer working around North Yorkshire I live in North Leeds been a Wigan fan since a kid due to family originally moving from Wigan to Leeds due to work commitments. Attend around 60% of home games and 80% of away games and look forward to contributing to the forum.

Welcome to the forum mate

Dont take that idiot on damo and pemps

you should be ok

How dare you! That's slander! There's nothing wrong... with Damo

And the Wigan Supporter's Club - Leeds Branch doubles in size.

Welcome.

Walked past Fat Harry in the bus shelter earlier... picking his nose whilst leafing through a photo album

and wearing a Reebok ATHLETIC Dept fleece

There's actually more than you'd think, Andy. See enough Wigan shirts at our away games in Yorkshire anyroad

Yeah but you're just small town in Wigan.



How many Leeds based supporters do you think Matt (in terms of tickets sales anyway) - you'll know better than anyone.

No idea in terms of numbers, but I know there are some Wigan fans in Harrogate, Batley, Bradford, Huddersfield and Holmfirth, amongst others. Nowhere near as many as travel down from Cumbria, though.

Would you buy him/her a pint then ?

Can you buy Domestos in pints?

Any ignorant fools on here voted BNP?

Cos its people like you that let Hitler steal power in Germany

Surely you'd be better off having a go at the people who couldn't be bothered to get off their backsides to go to vote.
The BNP would have got a lot smaller share of the vote if people had made the small effort to actually go and exercise the democracy we fortunately have.

if id put

"Any ignorant fools on here not vote?

Cos its people like you that let Hitler steal power in Germany"

people would think I was barmy

Yeah i didn't vote cause i couldn't be d

Here's one of them Nikos, fire away

why vote if there is no-one worth voting for?

I'm guessing you didn't read the manifestos of any of the parties.
I'd also say that most people didn't know what policies the parties were standing on.
I'd be even more confident in saying that most people only consider there to be three parties when it comes to elections.
If people did a bit of research I'm sure they'd find a party that represented their own personal views. It's pure laziness and apathy to say 'All politicians are bent, therefore I'm bnot going to vote.'

The BNP winning a seat isnt a worry, them now being in the mainstream will expose them for what they are and they will hopefully collaspe under this scrunity/exposure.

I would like to think that you are right. However looking at the "calibre" of their voters on the telly I feel that things will get worse in the short term.

Education of the working classes is the only way to ensure we rid this country of fascists

I respect the fact that people have the right not to vote but it nevertheless staggers me that so few people actually do. When you consider how many people willingly pick up the phone every Saturday night and vote for stuff like Strictly Come Dancing, Big Brother and The X Factor, I can't believe that such a small proportion of those exercise their right to vote for people who will actually can and will make a difference to their lives.

I can't remember any occasion since I turned 18 where I've not voted; especially since moving to Wigan, where every vote counts for my particular party of choice. Just voting at all has only been a privilege we women have enjoyed for the last century or so, and throughout history people have given their lives to enable me to do so. The least I can do is return my ballot paper.

They all **** us over anyway thats why i dont vote

All they care about is £££££

What's your alternative then? Either we exercise our votes and elect a governing body (whether by voting for candidates whose policies/personalities we can associate with or by standing ourselves if we can't find one that suits us) or we don't have a vote at all and end up like North Korea or something.

By not voting, all you've done is remain non-commital to your 'they all **** us over anyway' standpoint by not electing an alternative. You have essentially just allowed it to happen/allowed whoever it is to 'get away' with it.
