| Quote wigan pie man="wigan pie man"forget the singing.........we need more DRUMS'"
Dear god no, one drum in the hands of someone who knows what they're doing is great and helps generate the crowd noise. But more than one and they get beat out of rhythm and sound awful, not to mention some of the drums sound like someone smacking away at an empty pringles tube.
Quote wigan pie man="Scouse Pie2"I see what you're saying as I sit in a similar position (Row DD ES6) and we've got some right old farts by us, but I'd be reluctant to give it up as the view is cracking. I fear this may be the view shared by many. (Now if you could get a singing section at the top of the East I'd be game for moving higher up
)'"
I'm almost on the 40 metre line (the North stand side of Halfway) I think 3 or 4 rows back, and I love that seat! But the one thing it does lack is atmosphere. There isn't much point in trying to get much going when the people around you aren't interested in singing, of course that's fine and completely their choice, just a little frustrating for those of us who prefer it. A dedicated "singing section" would allow like minded fans to congregate in the same place and try and generate even a little bit of atmosphere into the place. I think it would grow if we could get it started.

| Next season, all those who want to sing, should buy south stand season tickets. Then they can sit together.

Oi, those Old Farts happen to include my Grandad and my Gran's friends.
He's not there for the next 2 games as he's off on a cruise in Norway, so trekking over to the games alone, means it'll be a lot quieter too.

Edited. Really annoys me that people don't sing this bit properly.

Just to add to your correction

| The DW, like most all-seater stadiums dampens down atmosphere. I keep repeating on these forums I would rather stand at dumps like Wakey or Cas than sit at the DW, until we can move around a ground as we like, we will not be able to produce the same atmosphere at home(?).

| Quote Jimmy Birts Lives On="Jimmy Birts Lives On"Can't please all of the people all of the time I suppose pal. As for Just Can't Get Enough, that was sung with some gusto at the final whistle as the team came to applaud the crowd but you'll never get that sung for 20 minutes non-stop. In terms of the meaning, the Dale Cavese is one the great Ultras anthems and it started off a few games back with a few lads who want to bring an Ultras culture to Wigan. It won't suit everyone of course but it captured the spirit of the moment on Friday night and there were certainly more than 50 people involved as you can see from the video. There were hundreds involved. I've supported Wigan for years and that was the most joyous, carnival type atmosphere that I have ever witnessed. It didn't have to say Wigan in the song. It was letting the old enemy and the viewers on SKY know that we were up for a celebration.'"
'Atmosphere' is something you can't plan to make, the Dale Cavese to me is a celebratory/party/carnival anthem when your winning/won, I saw people of all ages up and dancing on Friday night
Now at home when the South has tried to get it going say 10 mins into a mediocre game its just not the same as it's not relevant IMO

Same with Just Can't Get Enought. Pointless song when we're losing or playing gash. Should be reserved for after tries like Friday night.

Some people prefer to sit in the East Stand inlcuding me. The solution is for South, East and West stands to sing. It just needs a nucleus in each stand.
