Even though you were breaking world records for transfers in that part time era? mmmmmmm

19 Championships, 18 Challenge Cups, higher attendances since records began, produced more test international palyers. Which ever way you look at it. Forever in our shadow.

Ah you mean Newlove? who was just as the club was moving to fulltime to accommodate SL. Never mind eh keep trying to justify your 'amazing' achievements beating part timers. Being inferior suits you

It's good to see things are back to normal .. Wigan quoting past glories and ancient history

Do you mean the "Micky Mouse Cup" which was what the wigan fans use to call it all those years Saints use to win it.
Wigan have finished the Superleague season in 4th ranking, so you will be under Leeds or Saints shadow this season.

"Its Great Britain in the all-white strip with the red and blue V, the dark shorts and the dark stockings" Ray French (Legend):



What bitter resentful posts, clawing at past glorys, the last time Saints where in Wigan's shadow we still had the Berlin Wall, the Soviet Union kept bothering us, the country was being run by a women and Stevo had hair.

As previously mentioned i'm sure the past glories will comfort you next Saturday.

I am so glad they're out, just as a general RL fan.

They turned up so cock-sure last night, they were going to win.

So much so, pre-match they were more interested in singing 'lets all laugh at wire' and 'y warrington' than supporting their own team.

The atmosphere in the whole stadium was sensational last night. I was stood on my chair for the final 15 minutes or so. In fact, it was potentially the best atmosphere I have ever seen, better than anything at KR, down to the fact that the passion IS BACK this season. We've been written off and the crowd have roared the team through.

I just hope somebody got the tannoy-prompted version of 'you light up my senses' at the end on video.

Goosebumps.

Quote: LovesToSpooge "Oh wow, another Saints fan who think RL began in 1996. Understandable I suppose, only by thinking that is it possible for Saints to be more successful than Wigan.

For those of us who do truly live in the "real world". Know that RL began in 1895, and thus Saints and Wigan history began then, not 1996. Saints have had a terrific run in the SL era, but you've still got a long way to go to match Wigan's illustrious history.
Ah yes, Wigan, the club wanting only to remember the analogue history now operating in the digital age.

A girl in front of me (I had to stand right at the back because we couldn't find seats) filmed it, will have to keep our eyes open on you-know-what for it icon_smile.gif
