I thought the fans were superb today,and the Dale at the end, well i was speechless, I even thought I saw Josie's stick being waved in the middle by the way i hope no one got lifted by the officious stewards, and what was that announcement all about, just how could that damamge the clubs reputation.

I agree they were superb, 15 mins or so to go when the Dale started and it kept going until ages after time. What was the announcement? I couldn't hear anything and have a croaky voice.

Before the game, the announcer said that beach balls were not allowed, LMFAO. We just kept them going as long as we could :lol:

The speakers weren't working in the West stand so couldn't hear the last announcement when we were all chanting at the end. We were much too loud :wink: :lol:

Fraid so :blush: Not watched the game but had a few texts & comments lol.

Going to have to start charging appearance money at this rate :wink: :roll:

Thing was, I don't usually stand so far back, but all the lower rails were took when I got there at 11 :exc:

I did have my own steward as well, who, for some reason, escorted me down the steps to the loo a couple of times :blush:

you had a stick, and he was fishing for a tip. He didn't realise you'd be bouncing along with Dale Cavese though... teehee!!

The Sarah & I were in the pub, the camera flew over, i pointed and said "There's Josie..."

From the TV it seemed that the wire "fans" took exception to the Wigan fans singing despite losing - so they started chanting "you're sh!t" at the end of every part of the chant.

The announcer told them that wire would "not tolerate foul and abusive language"

About says it all
