| Quote ="MattyB"On a slight change of discussion, as I was heading down the steps after the hooter (to the tune of 'Long after tonight is all over'), it was amazing to see groups of older supporters literally dancing on the terraces and singing the words. One couple I saw (man & wife I assume, in their late 50's) were holding hands, dancing and belting out the words...they were in a world of their own to it. The joy on their faces alone made it so worth while!!!'"
Holding hands !!!!, definitely not married then.

| I love how I'm referred to as a middle aged man waving a piece of cloth about!
I can't wait for Friday and the week after, I love helping out and feeling involved in all this. I feel its only right that we have something to call "ours" and feel proud about. Never mind what other trolls and jealous fans think! Lets keep on with it until the club tell us otherwise!

| Don't worry about all the criticism guys! It's just people being plain miserable in my eyes, there is absolutely nothing wrong with all the flags at all and I'm sure the steward in question is being a major jobsworth!
Started to bring my nephew to home games and he is really enjoying the experience. One of the things he comments on every game are the flags and the colour, he actually goes into school saying that he has seen the wigan flags on a monday morning he get's that excited! So if people moan about not being able to see the grass grow due to the flags waving that is their problem. The South Stand is unreserved and they dont need to sit behind the flags.
Since the flags where introduced the south stand definately feels more like home and I love the we are wigan flag right above the north stand! If any of you need any help with the big wavers just drop me a pm and I'll help out. We need them at home aswell as away, it shows that we are wigan!
Whens the next meeting? Hope to get to one soon when I am not working because I enjoy the beer in the Anvil! And keep up the great work in the mean time!

Thanks for the support mate. Not got a date sorted for the next meeting yet but I'll PM you when we do. Be good to see you down there. More new faces each time we meet which is great. Thanks for the offer of help in the South too. We'll need people at the next home game so I'll send you my details. Looking for hands at Hudds this week too if you are heading across!

| Cant believe some of the crap people are saying on here. You guys do an awesome job and I have seen first hand how much effort and hard work you all put in. Not to mention the fact that you are completely self funded. There's definitely some jealousy here, so I wouldn't even bother entertaining it.
PS. I still need some of you to read through that article for the website, so pm me so I can send it to you. Or i'll bring it along to the next meeting if its soon.

The one who was the same age as that female steward who stopped your Ultra mob at your own home (rented) ground from dribbling all over your cloths?

I associate the Ultra thing with football, its the norm to see the Kop or the San Siro (which iv been lucky enough the experience) or Galatasary fans covering themselves in respective colours and waving flags around for 90 mins...but at a minority sport like RL where 50% of grounds are 50% empty on game day? come on!!!
Each to your own I suppose,but deffo not RL for me...

Ongoing mate. We’ve come up with some new ideas and we’ve yet to decide what motif we are sticking on the scarves. Are you going on Friday?

| The flag folks are the reason I decided to join the forum. Having seen the efforts they go to, and how much of an effect it has, I decided to join here to try and thank them in some way!.
Anyway, it looked great on Sunday, and yes "Long after tonight is all over" is a cracking tune, and had em' dancing in the aisles on Sunday.
Keep up the good work,
Swanny

| these people who are moaning about the ultras, really should grow up, get there heads out of the 70's.
history of ultras as i get it,
in the 70's the british casual culture was rife, this involved "firms"
at the same time, european club started groups called ultras groups, who occasionly protested about political matters in there country and in europe.
A bit later, bbc ran a documentary on the murder of a man united fan, and because there was a large ultras scene at the roma club, and the hooligans were from that section of the ground, it got linked as being a firm
it has more recently hit the uk hard, NEVER in the uk has the term ultra endorsed violence against other fans, and only green brigade up at celtic have any political influences.
So in reallity, the people who link it to "firms" should go back to school and get a grip
also keep up the good work.
KEEP THE FAITH
