Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Re: the little drummer boy and his mates
firstly fair play to you for setting the group up on facebook!!!wigan rugby wrote:Yes this was me I put the drum down because of the abuse I got from the Castleford fan and went back to the lads to try and tell them to get out of the way as I could see it was going to kick off at anytime. Im glad you saw me because atleast there is somebody who saw me not causing trouble because I am far from a trouble maker Id hate for our great club to get a bad name because of the way some of my mates acted on Sunday.Radlinksi_Legend wrote:To be fair to Daniel I did actually see one of the lads go in after the others, and leave his drum where they were orignally sitting....to which I commented to my mate at the time, thinking hed forgotten it because he was pee'd up.
If this was you Daniel then perhaps I have been a little premature in condeming you, however it does seem that you need to think about the company you keep, as it seems some of your 'friends', who were all in their pretty much within 2 minutes from sitting down, were only looking for trouble.
I commend you for your group on facebook and I hope that this goes somewhere to sorting the situation out - at least it should seperate people who do not go to the games for trouble from the idiots and hence weed the idiots out.
However, unfortunatly for you, from what I saw on sunday, some of those idiots are indeed some of the people you do seem to attend the rugby with, and I would anticipate that some of your 'friends' should either tow the line and follow your lead, accepting their stupid behaviour but agreeing to do something about it, or alternatively you will find some of these lads will not be going to the rugby any more.
The facebook group is really to get rid of the bad apples that seem to be growing at the top of the south stand we hope to get all the decent lads together into one group and not let any of the hooligan like fans sit near us and get us into more trouble.
Daniel.
however, surely you must have realised(well obviously not) that going sitting in the middle of another set of fans and singing is absolutly stupid. it was obvious where the wigan fans were sat on sunday, so commen sense tells you to go and sit with them!!!

Re: the little drummer boy and his mates
Daniel, (wigan rugby), if you are willing could you help the club and us fans in naming a few people who cause trouble. Ironically you could be useful to this problem. I hope in a few years you could realise how much help you would have made... it isn't grassing up it is helping firstly the club, the fans and the sport of rugby league.

Re: the little drummer boy and his mates
I can only commend Daniel for his responses since my earlier post, good on you for doing something about it but take up ANL's idea to name and shame a few people, if anything will tell the club that you are not an idiot it is this.
