'Do you remember when we had that meeting in Orlando? We talked about how we were knocked out the previous year by Leeds. And at the end, I asked you one question. "Do you want to be a semi-final team? Or do you want to do something special?" You all said you wanted to win. But talking is easy – it needed you to believe. It needed you to work hard – harder than you had – and make sacrifices. You did all that. you worked for each other. You stuck together when it was tough. And because of your efforts, you sit here tonight as champions. I'm proud of you. Be proud of yourselves. You've done something special.'

Shaun Wane's post-Grand Final speech. 5th October 2013.

Ultras or Brigantes??? : Fri May 18, 2012 9:45 pm  
Just wondering what gives with the new scarves? Thought the Brigantes name was adopted in order to distance the movement from perceived 'Ultras' hooligan connotations.

Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of all the group has accomplished. Just wondering about the reasoning behind it. That's if it is actually part of the Brigantes group or maybe a new faction claiming 'Ultras' for themselves.

It just looked like a bunch of attention seekers with daft bradford scarves.

Gave the Hudds fans something to smile about at least.

Ultras(awful name) briganestts or what ever it is please sto making games about you. Wigan games are about the team we are all fans together not just a few who have a name. Again we are all fans of Wigan so if your going to make a scarf why is it not cherry and white? Why do you feel the need to seperate yourself from all Wigan fans by giving yourself a name amongst wingan fans shall we not just call ourselves Wigan supporters and nothing else

Re: Ultras or Brigantes??? : Fri May 18, 2012 10:29 pm  
We incorporated Wigan's home and away colours into the scarves, cherry and white for the home strip and black and gold for the away. We appreciate that not everyone will want to purchase one of these scarves, taking this into consideration we also produced a cherry and white scarf, which sadly has sold out in three days. Due to how popular this scarf has been we are going to order more, in order to meet the demand.

We are all wigan fans, let's stop the bickering and get behind the team. What a fantastic win tonight.

Yes a fantastic win but why does a group of supporters have to have a different name to everyone else?
