It's totally irrelevant. People have a variety of reasons and we should just be proud that so many people want to show their support for the team in big games. I'm pretty sure nobody criticises Bradley Wiggins for not turning up to every single game.

Rugby league doesn't need to be perceived as being so insular. Wigan are doing a great job of trying to be inclusive and we should welcome anyone who wants to show their support for any game.

Probably the best atmosphere there has been at the DW for a long time and the East Stand was the loudest I have ever heard them!

Great to hear the East and South stands singing together too!

Isn't it "ardent supporter" anyway?

Sadly "Barmy Army" made a comeback though! We are not Warrington....

We were singing "shaun wanes barmy army" not "barmy army" plus we have a much bigger choice of songs than wire do
