Missed it last night.

Took something away from the east stand not having it there.

It just didnt Feel right just clapping when the team came out.

best get used to it i'm afraid - his wife has put her foot down and he aint coming to most games now!

AWCH!!!!!

he should sit in his lounge room and beat the drum every time we are on sky, i give it 2 games and she'll be driving him to the games

we missed him too!
i thought he was just late again!

It took away the annoying bang bang bang from the stand which is great. Drums are awful, if you cant get a song going without one its a poor effort.

Couldn't agree more.

I hope his wife really puts her foot down, and he never goes to another game.

I do not buy a season ticket to sit next to some fat maniac with a drum.

Ban him.

Just thought it took away from the atmosphere in the East. There was no atmosphere but there should be next week.

You cant have an atmosphere with no away fans. No drum will make any difference to that.

10,000 on at the Crusaders last week, 47 away fans last night. The whole club on and off the field is a complete joke. Sooner they get the idea that its never going to work and concentrate on areas such Cumbria the better the game will be.

I didn't notice it had gone TBH, but the atmosphere was dull. The away stand being empty never helps. You can't help but think if it was a team like Widnes or Leigh the atmosphere (and obviously the attendance) would have been much better.

We play KR on Friday. They generally bring a good away following. I would expect 1500 - 2000 very vocal fans in the north stand on Friday if last year is anything to go by.

Should be a good atmosphere this week. I would expect a 16000 crowd on Friday.

Drums = Awful.

No drums = Good times.

Yeah the Hull KR match should be a brilliant game and should have a much better atmosphere. Hull KR bring a healthy away following and you would expect that a few more Wigan fans might come to the game as well with our good opening performance.

Should be a belter - Can't wait.

As i mentioned to a mate last night, next friday is when we see the season start. Last night was great for a opening game playing wise, fans wise it was rubbish.

Last nifght was a glorified pre-season friendly. Celtic put up little to no fight and never even looked like scoring for most of the game. Next week against what will probably be fellow playoff contenders should be a better yardstick to how far we've come - it should also have a better atmosphere with HKR bringing hopefully at least 2k with them. Though with it being a Friday night coming all the way from Hull is a big commitment!

We got over 13700 home fans against a team that will do well to finish bottom so we should be looking at 16k next fri

Shouldn't that be 2million?

Why doesn't he just give his drum to someone?

Thought we said Wire away was when it started

ill find somebdy to bang it.

annoy the miserable sods who dont like drums.

get the full samba band going i say

When "our" season starts. We have a mini drunken season running along side super league

Does she beat him up

The more drums the better, I say... I think we should start a petition against Binders missus... either that or somebody take over his drums... Seating disperses those vocal supporters.... we need a drum to liven up the east stand... otherwise we will end up like the West stand...

Anyone play the trumpet ? Does well for the Barmy Army at the cricket.
