After reading some of the comments on this thread - ie:

I think the Brigantes performances so far this season (albeit still good) are not as impressive as the start of last season. I don't know if something is different/less people are involved.



I think I must be missing something here. Why is the atmosphere/vocal support of the team the sole responsibility of the Brigantes?

At the game yesterday they tried their damndest to get people singing and backing the lads, yet most people just sat there & didn't join in.

Then they have to provide answers on here as to why they didn't generate an atmosphere for us all to enjoy.

If all the people who 'think they (the Brigantes) are doing a good job' and urge them to 'keep it up' etc. actually joined in - or God forbid actually started a song themselves, we would have the loudest support in the league. Where are all those people who have bought Brigantes merchandise and/or have said that they back what they are trying to do (why not say 'we' - we are all Wigan fans wanting the same thing) when the team need vocal backing?
Surely everyone needs to play a part in creating as loud a vocal support as possible. Whether you're 'in' the Brigantes or not (as far as I'm aware there isn't any form to fill in or past employer references to provide - there's no membership card - it's just a name used to attempt to give focus for a more vocal support by ALL Wigan fans - it's all inclusive), then for FS join in!

There have been a number of occasions, especially at the DW, when you overhear some people saying that " the atmosphere is poor today", yet when a song starts up - there is silence from them, as though it is up to someone else to provide them with the atmosphere they want.

Singing:
1. Isn't a crime.
2. Isn't something to be embarrassed about.
3. Gives a great sense of togetherness/community spirit.
4. Is good for the soul!
5. Feels bl***dy great when everyone joins in.


To ALL Wigan fans:
1. Surely the task of a supporter is to support
2. Learn the words.
3. Sing.
4. Don't leave it to someone else to provide an atmosphere.

He was there before that bloody drum you know

Weight didn't stop Solomona getting a gig in Warrington though did it?

To be fair Big Dave doesn't need a crane to get around:
