Or two million away Wigan following if you remember the ‘Hull KR away fans’ meme 
In This week’s Damo Bit I expose that Wigan’s attendance isn’t all that some of their fans make it out to be - leeds.rlfans.com/readarticle.php?article_id=1687
Attendances down off the field. Wigan doing well on it. Coincidence?  |

Your blaming Wigan for the poor attendance at Wembley?
Lets get serious. We were not as well supported in eitehr the semi or final as we have been in the past. You cant blame fans, econimic issues and a poor side mean fewer people bothered.
Take the semi. It was a local derby and not too far for either lcub yet we only got 13k fans. Ive not looked for the figures but I bet there were more watching us play Saints a few years back.
Some Wigan fans will embelish the truth, but all clubs have fans like that.

I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass, and I am all out of bubblegum.
Don't you struggle. Don't you fight. Don't you worry, cause it's your turn tonight!

What a big pile of sh*te that article is! You wasted your time writing it, and I most certainly wasted mine reading it.

Your article is a waste of words.
I'd be ashamed to have written that.

Welcome to the world of Damo. I haven't read it. I know better.
And believe me 'LovesToSpooge' your time is inevitably a lot more valuable than Damo's. Learn from it.

The media also played a role. I doubt them writing us off to the extent they did put of many of our 14k regulars. Where it will have had an effect is amongst the 14k bandwagoners that might otherwise have gone. |

What's there to disagree with in Damo's excellent thought provoking piece?
Irrefutably evidence has been provided that Leeds V Castleford is now a bigger derby than Wigan V St Helens.

Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid.
Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal.
Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_20333.gif |

If only you'd realised how funny that was when you posted it.
I'm beginning to form the opinion that some fans take the whole thing a bit too seriously..... anybody else ever noticed that? |

Some people just can’t accept the plain truth even if it’s presented to them  |
