Quote: Horatio Yed "Why, does your ego need it that badly?

Woe is me, now that is pathetic, a little puppy that wants attention.

If you'd beat Hull in scintillating game do you honestly not think people would have said 'wow that brilliant'?

A fact is most people don't like Wigan but they're all big enough to call a game as they see it, I've seen many a thread by a neutral praising a pie performance, this, regardless of the occasion though was dross.

Here's a bone little puppy, go fetch it boy.'"

I'm sorry if you are attracted to little boys but I'm not. You cant apologise and you can't give out compliments, period. When you win in the rain its the best performance ever, strange that isn't it? What a sad person you are

In Springfield, they're eating the dogs, the people that came in. They're eating the cats! They're eating the pets!:18686.jpg



Why do some Wigan fans believe there is a vendetta against them, they really need to get that chip off their shoulders icon_rolleyes.gif .

It has nothing to do with which teams contested the final, yes it was close, yes defences were very good, but ultimately the game was awful, mainly down to the amount of dropped ball.

Any newbies watching that display from two of the top clubs in the game must have been very unimpressed.

Wigan fans have spent the past two seasons ing and moaning about the play-off system for allowing Leeds to be rewarded with SL titles in exchange for their 5th placed regular season mediocrity. Yet they expect everyone else to bow down and celebrate their very own mediocrity yesterday in the most dreadful CC Final on record, and all this after being gifted the easiest draw to Wembley ever. They need to grow up. The game could really have done without that embarrassing shambles, particularly when it's the most viewed showpiece RL event of the season.

Making stuff up now, wow, are you affected?

When have I
a) given out an opinion or alluded to having a rather distasteful sexual preference
b) needed to apologise for an opinion
c) said my team played their best performance ever in the rain
d) never given a compliment were it's due

Here's a bit of advice look in the mirror and tell yourself it's time to grow up now.

No need to resort to insults, I only stated the obvious - Wigan fans thought it was a good game, everybody else thought it was crud. Sorry if you can't deal with that.

No, the rlRFL appointed Rhinorl as the official ball supplier last year, until the end of the 2015 season.

William eve is the most bitter man on rlfans. Its fantastic this thread. Page upon page of people trying to convince themselves that wigan arent that good and only won because hull were awful. You can tell we are good again cant you? Let the good times roll

Quote: GansonTheClown "Wigan fans thought it was a good game'"

They did? Oh.

Care to point out all the Wigan fans saying that?

And remember, acknowledging that despite the conditions and high error rate, there was much to admire yesterday, such as Hull's defence or Wigan's kicking game, isn't the same as saying it was "a good game".

Quote: Mash Butty "No we are not denying it was a bad game, however we have been backed into a corner by retards like YOU are who are using "the poor game" as an excuse to attack Wigan, its utterly pathetic.'"


I blame Hull for being completely dreadful and offering so little. I don't blame Wigan for doing what they needed to win the trophy. So stop crying about your anti-Wigan nonsense.

Quote: Mash Butty "If opposing fans had said "well done, shame it didnt live up to expectations" or "unlucky with the conditions it spoilt the game" fair enough, but no, its anti Wigan yet again.'"


I was looking forward to the game. I actually wanted Wigan to win. I've said I'd have taken an awful Leeds victory in the CCF without question. How is that anti-Wigan bias?

Quote: Mash Butty "Not everyone on here has it in for Wigan so I apologise to you. But when a small town in the northwest of england holds both the FA cup and Chellenge cup it would have been nice for a few compliments. '"


I think it's a remarkable achievement that Wigan has both the the FA Cup and Challenge Cup. The town of Wigan should be massively proud of this and milk it for all it is worth.

I think the FA Cup final was pretty boring too. If Man City had scored with a late header then that would have been an awful final because it would have been a billionaire team nicking a late victory against a relegated side. That WOULD have been my anti-Citeh bias and I fully admit it. But, at least for me, saying yesterday's game was bad has nothing to do with any anti-Wigan feeling. Generally I am pretty much pro all RL clubs and pretty much anti every football club apart from my own.

Quote: Mash Butty "Wigan can't compete with the wealth from Cities clubs such as Leeds/Bradford/Hull or the more affluent towns like Warrington, but somehow we have achieved something that may never happen again.
Now if you think we are paranoid prove we are. COMPLIMENT WIGAN for holding both cups. I BET YOU CANT DO THAT CAN YOU?'"


Congratulations to Wigan for holding both the FA and Challenge Cups. It is a remarkable achievement and one open to very few towns or cities.

Congratulations to Wigan RL for being the absolute greatest Challenge Cup side in the history of rugby league. Congratulations to Wigan RL for being one of the greatest rugby league clubs in the history of the sport. Congratulations to Wigan RL for harnessing the talents of some of the greatest and most legendary talents that RL has ever seen - Offiah, Hanley, Boston and many, many more.
Congratulations to Dave Whelan on being heavily involved in Wigan Athletic and Wigan Warriors and seeing your involvement lead to the twin achievements of cup wins for both clubs.

See, I can fully accept that Wigan deserve praise. But that doesn't stop me from thinking that yesterday's game was awful.

I support Chelsea FC. To me, our Champions League win was probably the greatest moment of my sporting life. To a great deal of Britain, they will say we are a plastic side who didn't deserve it and decry our win as simply because of Abramovich's money. Those opinions do not matter to me in the slightest. And when those opinions come from a bitter Tottenham or Liverpool fan it actually makes it even better.

Enjoy your win. Ignore the comments from neutrals who were bored by the game because our opinions shouldn't matter to you right now. You've got a beautiful shiny trophy to enjoy.

You need to simmer down, getting this worked up over a crap game won't do you many favours.

All I'm saying, as are many others, is that I watched the game as a neutral (actually I wanted Wigan to win) and as a big fan of RL, and at times I was bored sh*tless/embarrassed.

So, no, you didn't go, so you haven't a clue about the crowd etc.
Do you actually go to live games?
Have you actually been to a game?
