On a serious note, what is the point of having a family stand when there are loads of families sat in the East stand.
I sit in ES3 and there was a family with two kids, two rows down from me and everytime the kids tried to sing the mother told them to ssshh.
Now I am not against families coming to the DW, but whats the point of a family stand if its not being used by families.
I like a good atmosphere with a bit of banter and a few swear words here and there, but you are scared of opening your mouth incase you offend.I really think that we should have a stand for the vocal contingent, whether it be the east or the south and to be controlled by your age i.e no-one under fourteen for example.
On another note the kids are running riot under the concourse. When trying to have a pint at half time they have nearly knocked my ale over on a few occasions.

Some bloke sat near me, asked me to watch my language because his son was with him. (i sit in ES3)
I said i’m not being funny but the south stand is over there (pointing) and if he did’nt like it he could always sit there.
He said he should be able to sit where he wants, so i told him he was correct, but if he did’nt want to hear swearing not to sit near me. :twisted:
Lets be honest atmos is pretty tame. A few ways to improve it:-
1. Hand out free tubes of smarties outside the south stand.
(That’ll get the young badgers goin).
2.Half time lappies on concourse, nowt wrong with a bit of wench at games. (that’ll get the owd badgers goin).
3.Lucky dip substitution, All lads on bench put their names in a hat, whelan pulls one out. Whoever it is has to play in a mankini. (that’ll get the women goin, young and owd badgers).
4.Free ale all round, as i mentioned in a post on thursday.
This will result in 3 points for latics, and everybody goes home either HYPER,P1SSED,STIFF NIPPED OR WITH A RAGING LOB ON.
What more does want for 20 sods?
Anymore suggestions?
Nice ideas. It’s just the thing Hitler would of done if he had took over as Latics Chairman.
