Hearing Warrington fans sing God Save The Queen was the low point of Wembley last year.

Hearing it today would have outright killed me. Glad I didn't go.

Would it not be appropriate to ban someone for this...

This group are starting to become a real annoyance. Singing over the Welsh national anthem was bang out of order.

Does cat urine distress you ?

or the word Arsenal, it does start inappropriately.

There are at least 2 different drummers, each with their own group. One group I know are far too young to drink beer and deffo go to WTFC games. The group near me today in the Yale stand (upper, aprox' level with the 20 metre line) were 20ish and drinking. They were the ones who, imo didn't really care about the game/team/club/fans/ or anything else as long as they were chanting. I don't know if they go to Town games.

Not the point though Yed the AUP says swearing is not tolerated so how isit Mods can have there avatar and names branded with a swearword, if I did it I'd be banned no doubt.

Me personally - no! I'm a big boy and worldy wise but there is a certain irony wouldn't you agree? Plus...

it should have been a good turnout, it's only 33 miles from Warrington...

How many do you take to places like Quins and Hull KR?

You really are a tool, aren't you...

are you a salford fan? if so we properly take more to quins than you get at a home game.

Took more than Salford got for their last home game...

No i'm not a Salford fan, I was merely pointing out that as it's only 33 miles to Wrexham then it should see a lot of the fans go.

I believe the 2 Hull clubs have the best travelling support, correct me if i'm wrong though.

you're wrong. from what i've seen KR has been dire this year.

Not being biased, but going off facts, it would be us, Wigan and probably Leeds.

Does anyone have a league table of travelling support, it would be great if the RFL devised a scheme whereby the team that takes the most fans to away games gets special discount off a major game (Wembley, International etc) for their fans.

Maybe they could do it for a round of fixtures (not derbies), just a thought.

Was there a game today ?

That is the Masonic lodge. Did they try to sign you up lol

Ditto

Phew - I'm glad it's not just me that feels thoroughly embarassed by some of our fellow Warringtonians' antics at away matches.

I seriously think it's time to ban the drums - they just make me cringe and add nothing to the atmosphere. We used to manage just fine before them and what little novelty factor they used to have has long since gone.

Sadly I seem to be in a shrinking minority of people who go to rugby matches with the top priority being - to watch rugby! Pointless chanting, "amusing" banter against the opposition fans (or against your own if they are in another stand), mindless slagging off the ref and our players (Westwood need sacking apparently according to one expert behind me yesterday) and other general nonsense seems more important now to many.

I think Warringtons away supporting is collated and noted which is why Catalan dragons have moved their home game to the bigger Aime Giral Stadium.and also why last year they decided to take the visit of Warrington to the olympic stadium in Barcelona....

or they could have just guessed Hull kr have a rough quarter of a million fans and booked the camp nou for the visit of the robins instead..... it would have been bustin at the seams...

For once I got a good look at the new self proclaimed 'barmy army' today. A dozen or so excitable youths and a smug 'drummer??' who's self-importance was laughable.
They did get some songs going and generally people joined in but only every so often and certainly not with everything ("you're wigan in disguise".... "who are ya"...etc aimed at our fans in the stand behind the sticks, songs with repetitive swearing or rediculous 1 man and his dog)
This 'group' seem more than happy to just sing along with the drummer boy to anything, anytime regardless of appropriateness, anyone else joining in or relevance.
They don't represent me or my kids which is why I moved well out of the way after 20 minutes and I think I now understand why many others have moved in the South stand and why Geordie packed in !
Rant over

I am sorry you have this opinion. I am the 'smug' drummer whos self importance is laughable. I and everyone else I was with had a realy good day yesterday and I think most warrington fans were made to feel very welcome and had some good banter with the crusaders fans. I am upset to here your opinion on me and other warrington fans around were we were stood on the side stand. The banter with the other warrington fans behind the sticks I actually thourght was quite funny and was definitely done in good spirt, you obviously dont have the same sense of humor. As usual tried my best to try and get a good atmosphere going and to get behind the team and as for chanting 'anything, anytime regardless of appropriateness' i disagree apart from the one man and his dog song wich you're right is a bit silly, all songs were relervant and were sang at times depending on what was going on on the pitch. I just think you have got this all wrong and its a shame you feel like this. I didnt get in to the ground untill it had just kicked off so didn't hear the anthem and i agree it sounds some warrington fans were disrespectful, but dont think it was done because they are horrible people just imature and THEY have an issue and find it hard to understand on what is appropriate. I myself has moved in the south stand due to idiots that were standing around me and think you are out of order to try and express an opinion that Geordie has stopped drumming because of me or my mates. I may be wrong but it sounds like you dont stand in the south stand.

el red - you are wrong.

Wire & Wigan have the best away followings, probably followed by Hull FC. The Hull KR novelty worn off last season.

Speaking of Leeds away following, it was pretty poor last week.

Mind you that was probably because England was on

and the problems on the motorway.

Beat me to it. We didn't bother setting off. Sat in the club we were going from all afternoon instead
