Weird thing is, the numerous pie eaters stood near us were having a good laugh and said they miss the banter of us Leythers.

I was a touch disappointed with our fans on Saturday

where was the Wigoon family song ? ( it's one of my favourites )

A song for Thursday ...... " Eddie Hemmings is a t1t he hates leythers "

Hopefully it won't be Eddie on Thursday, and remember it was Bill Arther who brought it to Eddies attention wasn't it?

Maybe they'll just send Baz and Tez, who I think at least have a sense of humour

we were singing Stevo is a w@nker at half time on Friday

if you hate eddie hemmings, hate eddie hemmings hate eddie hemmings clap your hands

Eddie and Stevo have not got the slightest clue of the banter between fans. They would have said it was 'offensive' when we played the Brookside music against Widnes or the Hovis music against Batley (i think)

Wigginers know we don't 'hate' them, it's a rivalry with a hell of a lot of tongue in cheek between the rugby fans.

of course the main thing to watch out for in future is enunciation



We cannot have the poor one eyed deaf fans mistaking our dulcet tones and making their own lyrics up
(no disrespect to two eyed deaf fans/one eyed hearing fans etc etc)

Perhaps the lyrics can be put on the big screen, and someone can point to them with a big stick pantomime stylee

I seriously hope someone from the club explains to the RFL that the fans were chanting "Pastie" not the other word which some dumb Wigan fans think was sung.

Some of the comments on the Wigan site are hysterical, you would think Wigan was some Californian dreamland the way they slag Leigh and its inhabitants, for every rough street in Leigh Wigan has 5,and don't even start me on the "uglies".



I'm pretty sure it was not Leigh fans chanting the anti-Warrington chants but who cares anyway, it was a very very small % of the crowd and 95% of Leythers just enjoyed the day and as always behaved impeccably.

Well mate i cannot comment as i wasn't there as i had to work, but going of some of the comments it sounds like a lot not saying all was in good humor.

Geoff the God of Biscuits wrote: [iI was there last year, but don't remember hearing said chant? Not that i'm calling you a liar, I just didn't hear them myself. The thing that sticks out for me is that 90% of the fans wear their club colours. Why not wear England colours? It isn't a club game. Fair enough not everyone can afford an England RL top & a club Jersey, but, if you go into ASDA they have a wide range of St George motiff clothing which would have looked better than the =#FF40FFmish-mash of colours we had yesterday.[/i

There's no need to get personal is there?

To be honest I have been to loads of internationals and have never heard any anti club songs. The Pie Eaters you talk about were probably frightend to death of showing their contempt for you incase it got out of hand. I have only contempt for all you lot who were singing that crap and if I had my way would ban every single one of you from the ground untill you stopped. This club does not need a hooligan chain around it's neck but that is what you lot sound like. We need to be whiter than white but there is an element that calls itself "loyal fans" that are hell bent on dirtying that image. I think we should remember that this is RL not fuzzball. Have any of you lot ever thought that your behaviour may be keeping people away from our club. Why do something that may have even the slightest chance of causing a confrontation with opposing fans or cause harm to the clubs image. Just think about it when you are all laughing and joking about how good you all are.

Whilst I am with you TV Boy, the south stand at Headingley as given plenty visiting club fans stick at Headingley over the years when I have been for test matches.

Think maybe its best to use football grounds in future - a more neutral venue regarding clubs.
But have to say the game at our gaff was deffo the worst I have been to for letting club loyalties get in way of supporting England.

I take my wife and 2 young daughters and to be honest, I think you need to give your head a wobble because I'm convinced you're not going to the same games as I am.

Talk about blowing everything out of proportion. I don't like fans who moan every match but I respect them, they paid there money and so they can vent their spleen.

The lads who sing every match are not eveyones cup of tea but to say they are a hooligan element and intimidate away fans is stretching the truth.The Wigan fans near them on Saturday joined in the fun and I've been to loads of Internationals here and abroad and crack between opposing fans is the norm.

Remember this, not one fist was raised in anger on Saturday as always its the internet heroes who become verbally aggressive who cause most upset.

If Leigh fans had not supported the game in big numbers, the crowd would of been sp, the RFL recognised this and I don't think a few chants will cause Leigh RLFC any serious damage at all.

Maybe Twitch, but just lately we have had:-

- Featherstone fans asking to be moved because of intimidation.
- Halifax fans accusing us of racism
- Trouble nearly breaking out at Whitehaven at least in part because Leigh fans were baiting them with 'going down'.
- At a showcase international announcements to our own fans about foul and abusive language and a comment (rightly or wrongly) on Sky about anti Wigan chants.

Hardly a good advertisement for our club and there is only is one common factor in all the above.

Well for once and for a change did not join in the digs at Wigan fans which quite honestly where in jest as most but not all Wiganers in the North stand realised.

Re the match itself I hate one sided encounters (although not this coming Thurday I hope). Had we been playing the Aussies or New Zealand for example I am sure every one attending would have focussed on getting behind our countries team.

I think this is being blown out of all proportion to what occurred and although I know we should always be nice to each other all the time I do not think life' especially at sporting events' is like that. For those really offended well sorry but laughing a bit more and trying to see the other persons point of view might be an idea.

I have not seen any posts by The Preacher lately so this is posted by the Bishop of Salford who is having a glass of cheap red at a luxurious apartment in the posh part of the City I administer to.

Where did I say they were hooligans. I said they sound like hooligans. With chants of hate and songs with abusive language they come across as hooligans. As for an internet hero if I had been near anyone singing that crap you would have heard me booing it. I sing as loud as the next as long as it not that rubbish. As for head wobble Alex's Dad we obviously have different values. I am not saying mine are correct but singing that tripe is definitely not.

TV BOY how do you crack your eggs ........

eddie and stevo NEVER do the thursday night games..........

frankly, i'm surprised this fact has to be brought to the attention of some on here

FFS where did I say I was aiming my comments at you, talk about paranoid.

Song for Thursday:

'Weeee hate Eddie Hemming , We hate Stevo too theyre C*£"$
We dont mind Terry O'Connor, But Barry we love you!!'

Then 'Barry, Barry Give Us A Wave'

Its all just light hearted fun and we might even get a, God forbid, a good word!

well slap my hands and legs, I'll ask your permission before I post anything else (apart from this of course)

IMO I'd say let's just stick to supporting Leigh, sod songs about anyone else.

thats the answer glow,just focus on leigh.
