You must be kidding he would be ran out of there in the first week, they have to do complicated stuff like iron, silly boy wouldnt have mummy to do it for him.

Just because we are going on a pub crawl doesnt mean we are going to fight.

Lack of intellegence or what?

Half Day Pub Crawl


“ WHAT A WAY TO START MATCH DAY ”

Firstly, you will be picked up from your hotel with our fine coach service. We then head straight to our first bar called the K-BANE which is situated on the lovely beach front of Canet Plage. This bar is not only one of the sponsor bars, but a popular drinking hole for the Catalan Dragons team.

After a couple of hours of enjoying this beach front pub and thirst quenching, we will move on to the famous French International League player's bar, Jacque Jorda’s WEMBLEY for a round or two. Here you will be met and greeted by the man himself.

After the early afternoon session in Canet, we will move on, as this is a pub crawl after all, next stop will be the centre of Perpignan where we will spend the following couple of hours at one of the most popular and lively bars TIO PEPE's and of course another club sponsor. After the great build up on match day our coach awaits us where we will head straight to the stadium for the Super League showdown.

This will be a great way to bond, have a laugh and get to meet other fans.

Already 34 people booked on this from rlfans that i know of.

All im saying is that if one person looks at you funny or if one person wants to bring it im very happy to kick off, no problem, Bring it on

And you say smoking is disgusting ?

Sounds like he has smoke for brains!

You would attack someone if they look at you funny?

Are there any boundaries to this? If by chance you were to find yourself in the same bar as say... Lennox Lewis and he accidently spilt your pint you would head in fists-a-flying?

Or perhaps you're crossing a road and an old lady with a zimmer frame gives you a strange glance - you'd square up and "bring it on" as you put it?

This is just further proof that you have absolutely no idea of what you are talking about - away from your local youth club. If you've ever seen someone have a pint glass pulled out of their head after a fight then I don't think that you would find it so appealing

As for not knowing what pugilist means...

It always amuses me how it's usually the youngsters who want to fight. Most of them are just out of a school uniform and think they can take on the world, when in reality the only trouble they have been involved in is in the playground or in King St at the weekend when they have had a few shandies. A word of advice for the young immature fighters, no matter how hard you think you are there will ALWAYS be someone harder. It's a fact of life.

Fraggle my point is simple dont go looking for bother in the first place, if what you say is true that the police adopt a stronger than normal stance against foreigners then with the troubles that we have seen on the news the police not just in and around paris , i presume will deal with any trouble the way they see fit or have been instructed and that could mean using weapons i cant answer your point about a shoot first policy its merely my gut feeling but the impression i got when over there is the police are in no mood to stand for any trouble and with british fans mainly football having a reputation abroad i think this attitude of zero tolerance will carry on thoughout the country and with comments from Pie eater then it looks like where on the back foot already

Fair enough, although personally I'd think it sensible to adopt a similar approach in the UK as well! Quite why people anywhere would want to go out looking for trouble is completely beyond me, but I know a fight is all part-and-parcel of a night out for some people. The idea of finishing the night 3 pints of blood lighter or with broken bones, either in a police cell or a hospital, has never appealed to me. If I couldn't restrain myself when people "look at me funny" then I'd have been in prison for most of the last 20 years, or would have ended up getting seriously hurt or worse (currently living next to Moss Side in Manchester, and having previously lived in such friendly places as Sunderland where crossbows are sold openly in the windows of shops) by someone fighting back. My appearance is one that attracts attention from certain elements of society (what do you expect with green skin and these funny-looking floppy arms and legs!), and I suspect Pie Eaters attracts some attention with the tight shirts that we know he likes to wear, but we don't really need people retaliating just because someone looks at them, whether it's in France or anywhere else.

For those people going to France, you *will* get funny looks off the locals - I got funny looks off the Wiganers at the cup game when I decided to wear a Perpignan shirt when UTC came over here! - but it's a quiet town not really used to having masses of drunk Brits descending on the place. There's no excuse for kicking off with everyone who looks at you wondering what these strange people wearing cherry and white shirts are doing, and I dare say Wigan RLFC would take action against any fans who bring the name of their club into disrepute as well.

Ive never fancied tackling a frog anyway theyre slippery little buggars

Maybe this brings a new meaning to the old rugby phrase "go for the legs!"...

As for your other comments i like a beer or three myself but draw the line at scrap not my scene, unlike some!

Anyway im sure the true wigan fans wont let us down in Europe,

Agreed. I missed the last game over there, but the one in 2002 was just a big, happy friendly party, with half the locals who supported their team trying to swap shirts with the travelling fans. Quite how the lad whose XL shirt I got managed with my medium Wigan shirt remains a mystery, but he wasn't complaining!

I think there will be a few young people taking advantage of the lower drinking age while in France.

[mstiggy]

I like a bevvy or three myself, think the pub crawl is a great idea, went to both french games, got shedded at both , no sign of bother great atmosphere and a real good weekend, lots of laughs and I am sure this will be the same. :doz:

[TRICKY DICKY]

It amazes me how some people can suddenly think that just because we are going on an organised pub crawl there is going to be trouble.

If you hadn't realised, you can get a drink in France anywere, it doesn't have to be on a pub crawl.

THIS IS RUGBY LEAGUE MY FRIEND NOT FOOTBALL.

WE WILL GO ON THE PUB CRAWL, WE WILL HAVE A LAUGH AND WE WILL SING THE ROOF OFF THE AIME GIRAL AT 7PM SAT FEB 11TH 2006.


MY ADVICE TO YOU ALL IS GET ON BOARD AND JOIN THE PARTY.
