| i think we can do it. I'll be joining in and doing my part, but one thing I did notice about the "oooooooo ooo ooo, wooooooh woooha" is how infectious it is.
Split up into 3 groups, main group at the back and two satalitte groups toward the front on either side, and it will spread. Sure you'll get the odd misery who wont join in, but if the bulk are up and singing and dancing...

| If all the people who sat at the back at Widnes sit together in the south stand and give it as much as they did on Friday night it could be done. You will get more and more people wanting to be part of that and the area will grow week on week.
It would take a while though.

we're usually down the front as well, when it starts up at the back, we're planning to join in, and get those around us to do the same...

so we need to find out why, and fix it. There's only 2000 more in South Stand than went on Friday night, that's the minority...
It looks fun... and people tend to join in with stuff that looks fun!

| No point in trying. It has been tried before and does not work. All those who stood together at Widnes don't all sit together.

Everyone is split up at home games as opposed to all being together at away games. Plus, at away games you have your die hards as opposed to your day trippers.

Perhaps for next season it may be worthwhile approaching the club to see if they could arrange for a Brigantes section in Either the South or East Stands then those who want to try and create an atmosphere can while those that want to watch the game in their way also could
Just a thought

| I think its the same for most teams, in all sports, because away days are just so much better, the fans are more pumped for the game and you really get involved in the action. At home people tend to switch off (unless of course its a big derby game, which Huddersfield is not)

| Even at away games it can be poor. We just don't have enough big games in RL, big games get people singing. You have to go abroad to find fans who will sing none stop no matter who the opposition is and no matter what the score is.
If every game in RL was a good close game with stadiums full then every game would be a great atmosphere but this just isn't the case.
I reckon a decent solution could be a 'singing section' run by the Brigantes... get a few hundred people all stood together singing and it would get the rest of the stadium bouncing and even if it doesn't, at least the people who want to sing will be stood together getting behind the team!

Exactly. A lot of us who go to away games are in the East (plus a few pensioners in the West ).
There's also the fact that for most games (apart from Saints & Wire), there are hardly any away fans to wind up)

| Singing section is what we need fill the corner between the east and south there is an extra 3k and all those who try to get the atmosphere going can sit there because at the moment the east will start a song off then 5 sec later the south join in and vice-versa.

| i sat just one block away from the bouncing lot on Friday night and even just one block away there were many, many people looking at each other wondering what the hell the 'song' was...
even when it had been going 10minutes people wouldn't join in due to the lack of association to Wigan RL.
dont get me wrong. the amosphere element was good.
but that atmosphere could be replicated with a song related to Wigan RL. even with the 'Just can't get enough' song.
no doubt the backlash from many on here will come to this but please, remember the shirts debarcle on here. this site isn't a 100% accurate representation of Wigan fans and their thoughts.
IMO that song wont get much further than the 50 odd people singing it on Friday night. ESPECIALLY at home games.
#ducks for cover#
again, i credit the idea. i credit the dedication to bounce and 'sing' (can it be called singing?) for as long as that group did on Friday.
i just think it'd spread more with a slight connection to Wigan RL. just look how the 'Just can't get enough' took off...

Her goes get your bullet proof vest but THE GREATEST CLUB IN THE WORLD song started off with a small number at quins and that grew so cant see why the new song cant do the same.

A lot of the people who sit in the South might not necessarily go to the away games.

| To be fair Bowtun Warrior there were people sat close to the singers who stayed sat down when 'Stand up for the Champions' was sung. If those are the same people who are looking around puzzled when Dale Cavese is sung then that's a result for me.

| Why dont the singers in the South try the East for a home match to get all the singers together?
Why dont you approach the club with the idea for a one off match to allow admission for Brigantes members in the South to use their tickets at no extra cost in the East and see what happens?

there always will be those who dont sing or in that case, stand to a song....
but i was sat in a group of 7 (including me) and none of those with me liked it or were willing to join in on the very basis that it had no meaning.

This would be a good idea to ask the club but a doubt the club would be willing people to go into a stand which they have not paid for because of all the fans who have purchased seasons tickets might not agree with tthe idea
