at the DW all away fans sit in the north stand and if it overfills they go to the east stand however in soccer matches soon as the north stand sells out there is to be no over visiting fans

Its true.

I've only been going to games for a few years, and like the fact we can 'big up' our game as being a family sport, and there is no need for segregation, but it seems recently there have been many incidents which tell me there is a problem which needs sorting out, or segregation may be the only answer. I've said in another thread I don't see why home speccies feel the need to sit in the 'away end'. Today, I didn't see the reasoning behind having blocks of Wire fans sitting in amongst the Wiganers, or why they had two split stands.
Emotions can run riot after games, and having gloating opposition fans sat near you can incite anger in even the most genteel folk.

Quote from our Coach driver, who was from Southampton:

"Is Warrington the part of Merseyside where all the retards live?"

He is clearly the retard if he thinks warrington is in merseyside

Sometimes it takes two to tango. I had arelative who was in the west stand with other Wire supporters and he said it was six and two threes, so before anyone starts calling the Wire supporters, who on the whole were magnificent look to your own fans. Was it just a coincidence that most of the trouble started after Hick's winner?.

So, are you now saying that Wigan fans stay until the end of games to cause trouble instead of the usual tripe?

The game was still in the balance when Hicks scored thatswhy there were so many left in the ground, or had they just locked the gate.

Warrington are the most ungracious fans in sport.

If they win, they gloat like hell and get violent and confrontational on you.

If you beat them and gloat they get violent and confrontational on you.

If you beat them and don't gloat, they take it as an insult and get violent and confrontational on you.

well you have a primark.... what do you expect.

On the TV coverage you could make out something was going on at the 'Wigan end' as Bridge was lining the kick up. It was blurred in the background but you could make out the stewards were scuffling with someone. I don't think either set of fans are blameless!

That was the West Stand where there was a mix with Warrington supporters in the southern section.

Deary me today.Both sets of fans were at it. Take it on the chin[No pun intented and move on.

Saints fans are not the best either, but at least they are not violent.

Saints fans can be rather unpleasant, in my experience.

I can't say the same for Wigan fans.

Warrington have had problems with their hooligans for a number of years.

All you have to do is notice the numbers of Police that are used at wire games, that's a big clue.

I actually know a couple of genuine wire fans, and they have been embarrassed by these pillocks for many a year.

Billy Boston used to ban wire fans from his pub, The Griffin, on match days, such was their behaviour. He wouldn't even let them through the door.

They should ban a few [i'sine die' [/i!

there is nearly no police at wire home games, unless it certain games. get your facts right, I seen a few things from wigan fans yesterday, there little sections like that in all fans.

Can I say on behalf of 99.9% of warrington fans that we do not want to be associated with acts like wot have been described on here. We do not want fans like them supporting our club. I have no defence what so ever for these fans and they should be band for life imo. Sorry If it spoilt your day

when i was leaving the ground near the the pub the crickter pub sum wigan fans were mouthing and swearing calling the wire team cheats and just looking for trouble

Mouthing off? At anyone? Doesn't sound like from your post. Sounds like some frustrated fans to me. Not really hooliganism.

we have only have police at saints games, wigan games (due to crowd numbers) and the hull matches(well you know what they're like) and thats in the away end.

Warrington fans?

Hardcore.

Because a lot of your speccies get in there to p1ss people off?
