| Graham looked like a kid lost every time time he took the ball in he got hammerd and the rest of the time he just passed to avoid getting hit.
As for long he look's very old now but was still your best player on the day

Wrong. Saints weren't ALLOWED to play.
Is it really beyond a sintelliner to give Wigan ANY credit?

There was a point when we actually started making moves from deep and utilising dummy runners, and made good yards from it.
Then we lost our heads again and went to one up man ship.
Wigan deserve credit for a great win, but to state it was all because Wigan played amazing is as daft as to state it was because Saints were awful on the day. The truth is somewhere in the middle of the two.

| Just another weekly round game for us it was quite simply the goons cup final hence had a wigoon win stamped all over it. Lets see who's winning the trophies come the end of the season.

No, many have given you credit, but Saints were shocking, and didn't look to be putting any effort into the game at all. Thats how i saw it anyway. I didn't think Wigan were particulary outstanding, they were good yeah, but Saints were shocking.

Haaa, I was waiting for this pathetic excuse of a comment.
No, it wasn't our cup final. It was a league game for us as well.
If you want to console yourself, go and ask your mum for a hug.

Your players prepared for it like a cup final and the fans celebrated it like they'd won a cup final.

No, our players prepared for a tough match against tough opposition. We celebrated as any set of supporters who expected to lose, but instead kicked the opposition's backsides all the way back to Merseyside, would.
Of course it helps that it's you we beat. Both teams are always delighted to get one over the other. You would have done the same 10 years ago. In fact I dare say that most of your fellow supporters did.

Like I said, we did.
And like my thread said, is was refreshing to see how much it meant to Wigan fans. All those Saints fans commenting on how they celebrated like it was a cup final obviously never felt like beating Wigan was winning a cup final. I think you will accept that if you hadn't had the glory of 15/20 years ago, it would be as good as a cup final to beat a successful Saints side.
