| Quote ="Pemps"Would be great if the club handed out just simple red and white striped flags. Not the little ones that they give kids at the jubilee but the large ones that they have at footie matches. About 2' x 3'. Of course, if someone in front of me waved it throughout the match, then I'd set fire to it.

Or even scarves like Man Utd did last season at the Munich anniversary game, looked amazing on TV.

I don't see why there should be an objection from the club provided the proper permission was gained in advance. I can see people turning up on spec with bloody big sticks getting turned away.
If you consider that Liverpool supporters managed to get this sort of thing into their football ground for donkey's years, I can't see any reasonable objection to them in a Rugby League ground.

No objection at all provided you don't stick it in front of me!
If you do, there's a fair chance it will find it's way up your ar$e!!

| I think Wigan fans are quite vocal away, the main problem is that you're songs have no orginality..all United greatest hits which makes you sound both tedious and cringeworthy.

There are very few original songs at any club, in any sport. They've nearly all been adapted/pinched from somewhere else.

True.
We do have a hidden gem with Mike Hardings 'Wigan Rugby Club' version of 'Uncle Joes Mintballs' that the club could potentially use as the clubs unique anthem ie playing it just after they've come out of the tunnel.
If anybody from the club is reading this, please have a look into it!

I think we just need to be a little more selective in what we adapt or "borrow". Liverpool borrowed "You'll Never Walk Alone" and never gave it back, it's theirs now Carousel may as well never have had it in the first place. I think the "Greatest Club in the World" is a blinder and a fine example of well chosen pilfering, the previous Calderwood effort was not only cringeworthy, it wasn't even accurate.
Having said that, with the exception of "cheat" and "Wemb-er-ley" (learned my lesson with Les Cats) I'll sing owt if it brings the volume up.

Ancient and Loyal upon my chest is a fantastic 'borrowed' effort.
Like 'Greatest club in the world', everybody will hate it, call it and ignore it until they learn it. Once they learn it they all of a sudden love it.

| Quote ="odemwingie"Get everyone sat together at the back of the East stand and we would make plenty of noise.
There is no point having 2 small groups of people in two different stands trying to make some noise.
It would make home games much more enjoyable and this could improve the attendances. I am not sure so many would go to Leeds every week if it was not so much fun in the south stand.
Great idea!!'"
Your joking arn't you? The southstand gets worse for atmos everyweek. Some of us loyas at the back try to get some different songs going but get out forced by the band playing the same old sh*te over & over.
Fair play to you lot, i hope you pull this ultra thing off as it would be great. Lets hope if you do other fans will follow & get the atmos on the rugby league terrace back to how it should be.
FORZA ULTRAS!

| lived in Hungary for a few years working and got invited to wacth VSC DEBRECEN v MAN UTD it was bonkers none stop singing for 90 mins.
They have a few blokes with megaphones at the front of the crowd at every game getting the chants and singing going its very intimidating i was stood in the middle of it all not saying a word just jumping up and down.

Yeah, because the weather is great at the moment, and we always have a fantastic blistering hot summer dont we? We could give them out at a home game earlier in the year when its colder and then its your choice if you choose to wear it again at other future games.

| Some of them videos are ace. 'Smart Price' bog roll for the win (Knowsley Rd ) , although I think if something did happen at Wigan, would people prefer no drum? Or get a beefier sounding one?

| Quote ="Jimmy Birts Lives On"No, nothing at all to do with hooliganism! This is about setting up an Ultras scene to promote a bit of colour, passion and noise on the terraces in a similar fashion to Ultras groups on the continent and those which are increasing in popularity over here (e.g. see Aberdeen’s Red Ultras website. Even Accrington Stanley have their Stanley Ultras!)
We'd be looking at the production of new flags and banners, ideally with striking & original designs. Homemade or professionally made flags & banners, it doesn’t matter. The more the better.
If anyone is interested, give me a PM or if anyone has any ideas (including ‘no chance, it’s a non-starter!) put your ideas on here.
I’ve already contacted the club to see if they are interested in having any input although I suspect that something like this would work better away from home for various reasons.
Forza Wigan !!
(Category C and below welcome
)'"
Great stuff. Mentioned this years ago. I'm thinking travel and stay in style at rugby. Set our own area in the stand. ETC etc

Yeah, it would help if the drummer didn't sound like he'd just brought along a biscuit tin to bang

Would not be amused with that smoke spoiling my view.
Still I suppose they have to get all that testosterone out don't they? They sure as hell don't do it in wars!
