| It says on telly text something along the lines of:
'The hosts lost Richie Mathers to the sin-bin on 65 minutes, but despite looking a better side without the full back, still made too many errors.'

| Quote: Eurob0y "Dude, I dont remember our fans gloating to the extreme like Wigan fans have been doing about how they couldnt fail this year. Just read some of the recent threads on cherry&white. Thats why I am gloating. I am more than aware that we could fall foul too, but until that happens, I am gladlly going to gloat
Like i said i'm not telling/asking you not to gloat at their defeat or anything.
We're in a very privileged position in that we support probably the most consistently successful team in Superleague, one of the two best sides in the competition last season. This allows us a standpoint from which few of us feel the need to 'big ourselves up' for the new season, as we already feel safe that we will be challenging for honours.
Wigan aren't fortunate enough to be in this position these days, but:
A) a with good showing in the playoffs last season.
B) the continued improvements they have made in their league position over the past three years.
and
C) excitement over new signings
I'd suggest its understandable that a proportion of the Wigan fans are getting cocky about their chances of challenging the big two this season, as misplaced as this may be.

I'll remember this quote ready to shove it in your face on maundy thursday
i stupid scousers like this, cant be realistic about anything
i think this year the derby will be much more close and exciting than past games, saints wont win all the matches but if they do it wont be by a large margin, Saints players are old and are losing their fitness and skill.

True but you highlight only part of the sentence and thus took what i said out of context. The point i was trying to make was that gloating about one loss at this stage of the season (on their boards or our own) will invariably be picked up by someone and used against the poster at a later date, especially one who frequents oppositions boards such as Eurob0y. (edit
People sadly tend to remember these types of comments over the sensible posts and thus we all get tarred with the same brush.

| Wigan were poor today. With a 40% completion rate even Saints would have beat us.
The right hand side was all over the place until they moved O'Loughlin inside the to cover, but by that time we were 10 points down.
We dropped the ball over the line twice, but it would have been an injustice had Wigan won.
Wakefield also had a try disallowed in the second half when IMO the Wigan player knocked the ball back, but the referre (who had a decent game) gave a knock on against Wakey. He was much closer than me but I would have given a try.
On to Hull next week, hopefully minus Coley and Mathers.

And Wigan players are unwanted NRL has beens who didn't have any skill in the first place. Bailey, Phelps, Tim Smith, the fat one, etc ...

Now you see your just making yourself look stupid here. Last season the Saints players were fitter than ever and by the looks of it this has continued through to this year, as for losing skill lol .. well that doesnt really happen either, if anything the more expeiernce some players get the better they get. Although our season hasnt started yet I cant imagine come friday night ths board will be full of people screaming for half the team to be dropped or Potter sacked which would put us in a better position than Wigan. If Wigan had been up against a top team tonight they would have been soundly thrashed , fortunatly for you you were playing a weakened Wakefield (who will probably struggle to make the top 10)
