I reckon all away fans should do that when "we" started singing Wembley songs.

We've had a couple of similar incidents at Wigan this year.

Here's what I wrote on the Wigan board.

"Here's my take on it.

I don't care if it's a Wigan, Wire, Saints, Salford, Swinton, Leigh, Huddersfield, Leeds etc fan.
I don't care if it's one incident or a thousand.

I want shut of them ALL.

And it's up to ALL of us decent fans to do everything we can to get rid.

We've all got mobiles with camera facilities, use them."

Somebody knows who they are, it's up to the decent fans to inform their respective clubs. We can't just bury our heads in the sand and wait for someone else to do it.

True true. But its bad enough when you get abuse from away fans but when its coming from your own fans its shocking.

Yet another reason to suggest the education system in Hull is absent.

Gotta love the place.

Some pearls from Craven Park.

"Come on Mathers drop it"
"Grix you d*ck head you should have passed"
"Drop dead Myler, you're sh*t"
" A G - A G R - A G R O - AGRO!"

Brilliant support.

Dallam, Longford or Orford?

I'd like to wager they are from there.

I wouldn't like to comment or besmirch the good people of those areas. They were supporting Warrington however.

what about bewsey, latchford and padgate?

i know not all people from orford are bad!!!!

You know when the "stand up if you ..." chant goes up, and you are sitting down. I often feel like I can't win. Stand up and I'm a sheep easily led by suggestion, remain seated and I feel lazy "disloyal" under-fan. It's odd.

you should start a "sit down if you.." chant to confuse the masses.

I know exactly what you mean. I followed the chant once, and was promptly abused from behind (not literally), and told to sit down as they couldn't see. Still, not as bad as the guys who sit behind me in VP section, who insist i sit down when somethings happening, such as breaking the line, going the length of the field, or god forbid i get excited and stand up when we score...

Still, 3 years on, and i think they've got the message that i'm not listening.

what you need to do, is simply leave the seat pointed up and just perch on the edge of it therefore giving a halfway position, so you're almost stood up and just a bit of pressure away from sitting down.


Better known as the "at the movies during 30 minutes of adverts" position.

I agree. Brief standing up is legitimate on the occurrence of either a half break, run greater than 20m, try or biff. Or any combination of the above. Typically though it's because someone in front stands and causes the 'domino effect'.

LOL. I was thinking of attending the game in a wheel chair to avoid the whole, damn, conundrum.

They were from Warrington. End of.

Ian, the fella I was on about was bald/shavenheaded, rather well built/portly and had a tight fitting away 2008 shirt on and a baseball cap.

i feel embrassed cos i wanna see the game and i dont stand up, i have to stand up though if the ones in front do

LOL. That narrows it down to about 75-100. It's the Warrington classic. That and skanky, acne ridden, callow youths with trackies firmly in off-white socks and baseball caps set at an ever so jaunty angle

haha sounds like your desciribing half the lads from my school

Might be the same guy.

I don't want to turn this into a witch hunt more than I already have but he was a bit of a bell. I'm with 71 on the 'stand up' chant - I'm not bothered about being labelled a sheep, more that I don't want to be associated with some of our cretinous support.

=#0000FF[And whilst we're not on the subject <thread drift> I thought Mathers had an excellent game yesterday. Quite why anyone would get on the lads back is beyond me.

Back on topic, it is also worth noting that a lot of our supporters are fantastic and I'm proud to be associated with them. As usual, there is just the odd one who makes us all look like a complete Peter Fox.

which player was it that gave grix the v's

It was funny when you, me and that lad from Orford sat down when the chant started yesterday for that very reason.

One of our party was from Orford and he is appalled by the behaviour of some of our fans.

You mean Fox, although I don't think he gave him the Vs. I think he was beckoning him to catch him up.

oh orry if he didnt then but thats what my cousin said who was stood next to me
