And I use to think Wire fans were bad.



The mods should be getting rid of the rugby bashing threads simply because it detracts from their club. If they are proud and loyal Lactics that are 'on the up', they shouldn't give one about us. But instead they are trying to find anything to whinge about and also making disgusting claims about an innocent man no matter who he happens to be.



They are an utter disgrace.

I think that's a very accurate and intelligent post.

had to laugh at the post by progresswith unity.... fat chubby lodgers LIVING OFF OUR SUCCESS!





if thats what they generally believe then there really is no hope for them!!

i wouldnt call wigan latics a succesful premier league club.



as another poster said i dont have a problem with the genuine latics fans who went springfield park, its the new toss pots who've only watched them since they got in premier league that i cant stand. its funny because some of these clowns used watch us at central park but now for some reason seem to hate everything about wiganrl.

Some of the stuff on that forum is unbelievable!



What is the 'never forget' thing in reference to?

To an extent the same could be said about threads like this though but rivals will always talk about each other and look to put each other down to an extent, but there is a line that most people know not to cross with that but that thread was bang out of order and must be an embarrassment to the decent fans of the club of which I am sure there must be some.

think it was somthing to do with them wanting to play an fa cup match at central park and maurice lindsey said no!

They don't understand how they got the stadium in the first place.



Some of the comments on there are embarrassing, I feel sorry for them to have so little intelligence as they'll never get themselves a decent quality of life.

How anyone can say they are a Wiganer but make remarks like that about a man who has been part of the town's life for decades and been honoured for his contribution to sport is beyond me.



A disgusting thread on a website plagued by offensive morons.



Decent Latics fans must be hugely embarrassed.

The energy some of the 'people' on there clearly put into hating all things rugby is quite impressive.

Should try getting some legends of their own so they wouldn't have to call it the Springfield stand.



I mean seriously, how sad is your life to actually sit in a different stand because of who it's named after? Especially when it's named after a Wigan (the town, not just rugby) legend and thoroughly decent fella.

I remember my auntie about 2 years ago queing for tickets. a latics fan also buying for a home game ask the girl will she make sure the seats shes giving him are not red





I'm not joking about this

All the JCL's since 2005 are on a mission to show their mates that they hate WRLFC more than they do. Thats why the childish name calling is sinking deeper and deeper.

I ain't got a problem with the 1500 that used to go to Springfield Park having a little pop at us, as they did take alot of stick back in the 80-90's, most of which was just light-hearted banter not this vitriolic agression that is currently on show from the knuckle-draggers. If you check out Maurices interview on the BBC on a well known video sharing website which does contain a certain amount of sly insults towards WAFC (although you can't really dissagree with anything he says) you can understand why the loyal 1500 have a dislike for WRLFC.

The problem with the new tics fans is that WAFC dont have a rivals to fall-out with, nobody takes them seriously, they have no history of rivalry with any club. Utd-City, Bolton-Utd, Liv-Everton, Preston-Blackpool, Burnley-Blackburn, Oldham-Rochdale, Bury-Bolton, so they spew their hatred towards their home town team in a different sport, DUH!

I am so disgusted I have written to Stuart Hayton at Wigan Athletic to "have a word" with the site owners. If the post is still there in the morning, the local rag will get a link!



I remember what Sheffield Wednesday did to a website owner (and fan) that allowed libellous comments to be posted - I hope Messrs Heeley & Taylor get a good dose of the same.
