Ultras or Irregulars or what ever they are called this week

Post by tonyteastain »

I like your flags yes, Good effort. Like most of your songs. But why feel the need to swear so much when they are kids two rows down from you with there parents? that even when they look up and ask nicely for you to stop you just carry on?

And whats with the smoke bombs or flares or what ever it was? why?

if we care about our sport and want it to expand and draw more people in to watch it why put them off by acting like a bunch of idiots?

I like the idea I do but please please can you just try to control yourselves and have a word with each other about your actions around others? Like i said I love the flags but I think your going to gain our away fans a bad reputation and that I dont like

Why be such a baby? If you don't want your kids to see swearing then don't let them watch live football. I like the idea of smoke bombs and flares, brings something new, creates an atmosphere. Keep it going ultras!

Agree with tony the flags are a good idea but my personal opinion is that everything else not so good.

each to their own just hope opposing fans know not all of the Wigan travellers are into it all.

Who is talking about football?
RL prides itself on being a family sport. I scream abuse at the ref when I am watching in the privacy of my own home, but would never do it at a game, I don't want to upset or offend anyone.
The flares and smoke bombs are almost certainly illegal in this country, and anyone with them at our club deserves to be banned for life.
They are something new, but not something good, all they do is alienate the vast majority of fans.
Why should those that have paid to watch the game have it blocked by some inconsiderate person letting off a smoke bomb?

Family sport? Try telling that to the brain surgeons at the top of the south stand. Unfortunately that's the way it is. And i tend to enjoy the smoke bombs, sorry for that.

Re: Ultras/Brigantes/add name here - flares etc a good idea?

Post by ancientnloyal »

And just like the (mainly yorkshire based) Brigantes, it will die out.

Aren't flares banned:
http://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/scotsol ... years.html < a guy this week banned for three years for setting off a flare.

Ridiculous those idiots thinking it's cool to do so. Giving us a bad image.

Thats my 2p worth
