Correct Dave (one of several people I didn't know prior to this)The atmosphere at Wigan has improved 10 fold over the last two years. The flags are welcomed by most and I'm actually asked "where are the flags" if they aren't at an away game. At games such as Catalans and Harlequins people ask for their pictures to be taken with them a few of which are on the gallery section of the website.
We have sold over 300 badges, 100 scarves (with around 50 more on pre-order), raised over £1000 through a bucket collection and sold out a fund raising event in less than 36 hours and raised a further £1000 on the night. If that isn't fans getting behind the idea then I'm not sure what is.
If you think our flags are dull then create better and brighter ones (I'd be interested to see what colours you would use other than red and white though). Sing different songs if ours are monotonous and annoying.
