Well maybe everybody needs to learn the right notes then! The tune sounds awful.

I'd think there will be lots who don't really know the tune.

If you don't bother to go to the game when you live in the locality then you are not really a fan and therefore your views are invalid. It's simple.

They were singing all the right notes..... But not necessarily in the right order...

Apologies to Morcambe and Wise.

I cant honestly believe people are moaning because a group of fans have given themselves a name. Does it really matter to people that much? They havent stopped anybody joining them if they want to so wheres the problem?

This moaning about them is far more embarrassing than any scarf/mask/mankini or anything they could ever produce.

One question I do have is, why do the scarves say 'ultras' on them?! If you are there supporting Wigan, then get a scarf that says Wigan. I was proper cringing last night when I saw it on TV with people jumping around with scarves as if to say, "Look how cool we are!!! I'm an ultra!! Yey!"


THIS!!

Orginal flags up on south stand = GREAT (and alot of hard work from those initially involved)
Fundraising for charity = EXCELLENT
Atmosphere at games = GREAT (S2 gathers 'singers' together and then inevitably they congregate at away games; makes sense)
Wavers = GREAT (again individual effort and well done)

Why oh why all this hard work has over a few years turned into flares, smoke bombs, gaffitti, scarfs over faces (on live TV aswell :FRUSRATED: ) and march of the kiddies is beyond me!!!! :SHOOT:

Please please please can those of you with enough noggin take a long hard look at yourselves and stop making a complete and utter mockery of those who work really hard to create colour and/or raise money for charity by doing something they love f.

If not then please just do one!!! I've asked nicely :D

Can we just lock another pointless thread please. These are getting tedious.
