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

It's so long since Saints were in wigans shadow that wigan still had their own ground. Now Wigan can't even see the shadow cast by saints for the much bigger one cast by uncle dave and his beloved latics. I must confess, when we are sat in our new stadium next season, all o will be thinking about is how I wish we could rent a stadium off a local football club, when they would allow it of course. Shadow my arris. Wigan may have a past, but saints have a gar brighter future.

[quote="Rob Wire":qtnftxzx]WIGAN ARE BACK to what exactly ? Oh i see what you mean, back to beating weakened teams. How many key players did we have missing in the cup ?
Just remind us again how many key players did Saints have missing in last years grand final ?
When did you actually last beat a strong Saints or Warringtom team ? Don't include beating us last year at the HJ, we had a lead of around 14pts and were cruising then we lost both Briers and Monaghan, another example of Wigan capitalising on other teams misfortunes.[/quote:qtnftxzx]

[quote='Fishsta"']I've always thought of McGuire as a good player, and I wouldn't normally wish injury on any player, but there was a certain hint of poetic justice to that.
[/quote]
Another classic:
[quote='Fishsta']You forgot to take off the "Saints Reduction Factor" when calculating the ban.
Standard suspension / Saints Reduction Factor = Actual ban for Saints player.
Therefore (2 / 3) = 0.666
0.666 < 1 therefore actual ban equals "less than 1 match".
Therefore ZERO.[/quote]

Christ, Wigan fans are becoming more like Liverpool fans every day. 'We were successful for a while 20 years ago, and we're clinging on HARD. Oh, and by the way, everyone hates us'
Why don't you focus on your current excellent youth system and very recent success rather than delving into the past all of the time? I don't want to burst your bubble but nobody gives a toss about 20 years ago, it is current success which breeds 'hatred' (jealousy).

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

Hang on, we have been champions for the last season, won the cup and also finished top last season.
We hold the cup as we speak.
Is saints best spell not also in the past? Your definition of history is rather patchy. |

Robinson wrote - Saints - it depends on whether the side can get over their mental block. We're more than capable of beating 'Dads Army', but it appears that Wigan still shiit themselves at the mere sight of a red V.:27550.jpg |

It was the best motivation for the players so thanks fellas. James Graham looked at it and gave a wry smile. Any chance you can do us another for the grand final?

You don't get that as much now that Warrington have the wonga. If anythign the competition cap is more likely to get the thumbs up across the board because people can see that it's helping to put youngsters into first grade teams instead of the same old fringe veterans. |

I dunno, Deano G is enjoying his daily CC rant over on cherryandwhite as we speak. |

Brett kenny and her boring little friends still prattle on about the communist cap. They are about as relevant as a chocolate fire guard in an igloo. The one good thing to come out of the goons fleeting success was the cc arguments demise. If they can get over the travesty of the GF being contested by two inferior clubs, am sure it will be resurrected in their extended off season. |

Can I just correct you on that one? They were not Second Division Champions. They were second (in the shadow of York). |

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

Of course you are correct, which sort of proves the point that Saints fans have no concept of history. 
Although, I may have to redo my sig after Saturday (one way or the other)  |

Egypt and Greece had the greatest civilisations in the world once you know. They don't any more (although Greece have just had a good go at "doing a Wigan" by bankrupting themselves spending money they never had to try to make themselves great again I guess). I wonder how many Greeks/Egyptians shamble glassy-eyed around the streets of Cairo or Athens, foaming at the mouth and mumbling "we're the greatest nation on Earth" to anyone they can grab hold of in their clammy little hands like so many Pies still do to this day... You were great - you're not anymore. No amount of stupid, gimmicky, ripoff, droning "Brigantes" nonsense will change that fact. So ner.
