Frankenstein created a monster.
Sad to say i felt it was going to go this way with the whole linking it in with the Footbalk Ultras in European countries. It was obvious that the good bits the flags and singing etc were going to then go further down the idiot route.
The only good thing is that it did not spark off idiot copycats from Wire or Hull which i thought it might. Most idiots at the other clubs operate as individuals or small groups rather than having a nice, " gang" label attached too them.

| What about using the stocks on the road from Garswood and Billinge to Winstanley College? It's also not that far from Saints so we could share it in times of need. We could raise money for charity offering sponge chucking at £1 a pop. Maybe stick a flare or two out of the occasional as well to enhance the atmosphere.

| Wasn't going to bother but given the amount of stick I got for posting this a year ago..........
Quote
I used to laugh at the "Brigantes" in the sense that they thought they were somehow "better" fans then the majority. It really did amuse me. The only thing "Ultra" about them was that drum which is ultra annoying - If that drum was near me at a game it would be a broken drum by the end, but that's more to do with manners rather than anything else.
However, overall they were/are harmless enough and are free to do enjoy themselves I guess. If the "Brigante" thing becomes an umbrella under which idiots can flourish, then it needs to be addressed.
There is no room for this in RL and especially at Wigan RL.'"
I only wish I could gloat and not be sad about the situation.

| It would be interesting to see somebody who is still involved with the group come on and give his/her take on things. Anyone know if any posters on here are one of the "gang?"

| Quote ="Warrington Wolf"Darwen Warrior for your information the Taylor report was completed after the death of 96 supporters who left home to see a sporting occasion only never to return. How does that report get blamed for the need to set up the Brigantes? Just think before you post. It's still a very raw subject.'"
Whoah tiger, wind your neck in a bit. I'm well aware why the Taylor Report was completed. What happened at Hillsborough was tragic to say the least and something that no one wants to witness at either a football match or any other sporting event.
The Taylor Report isn't getting 'blamed' for the setting up of the Brigantes - you're looking in to things too deeply. There is, however, an indirect link to the way supporters of some Rugby and Football clubs are looking to improve the atmosphere at their games, this due to the all seater nature of many new stadia and the fact that it is now difficult for like minded fans to sit together.

| There are plenty of cameras at Huddersfield and so it is just a matter of time before the culprits get a knock on the door. Bad behaviour in and around grounds has to be stamped out for the good of the game. The culprits last weekend will soon be regretting their actions.

This is what happens at Warrington to some extent. They walk through town giving it the big un, get slapped then come on here calling Wire fans "scum". Although I am also fully aware that Warrington have some fans who cause trouble with innocent Wigan fans. Both elements need to be stamped out.
This was some of your views about 10 months ago.

| Can I ask how/why did the responsible well meaning creators of the Brihante idea allow seemingly a brunch of scrotes to take over something they created to such an extent that they nearly all felt compelled to walk away? Are any of the original driving force still involved?

I doubt if any of them could string a coherent sentence together, and even if they could, every other word would be an expletive. On that basis, I suspect not.

...........and that's the point where decent people get into trouble. My advice would be to complain to the club and let them and the police deal with it. If enough of you complain then the club will have to do something. If one of you take the law into your own hands and gives one of them what they deserve, then you can guarantee that they will go moaning to the Police.

| The problem is that "being nicked" will be treated as a joke and viewed as a 'badge of honour' by these cretins, as no case will probably ever get as far as going to court.

Until the 20 para's get drunk and then beat everything up insight including themselves. After 3 years based in Aldershot I got to witness that every weekend.
