Quins have got it spot on IMO. The Kings Bar is ideal pre/post match and to be honest, Harlequins are one of the few clubs that actually go out of their way (or at least, appear to) to make visiting supporters welcome.
Certainly way ahead of the "welcome" that I've endured at Hull KR (who apparently "don't sell B.O.G.O.F tickets to away fans"icon_wink.gif or Wakefield.

I agree.
In fact, I'd say Harlequins are the best.

I meant to put Hull KR, not Harlequins.
In my defence it was late.
The Stoop is indeed a very hospitable.

I think this post pretty much sums up some smaller teams opinions
Huddersfield aren't the underdogs anymore when playing clubs like Wigan, they're currently your superior and whilst you continue to take a dismissive attitude towards such clubs you'll end up disappointed and be dismissed as typical arrogant Wiganers.
Which match was it last year that your own players shunned the fans and walked off rather than acknowledge you because of the stick you were giving them?
18th man my ar$e.

| Facilities: Wakefield
Pitch: Bradford (The corners were fine when they could score tries, not so useful anymore)
Fans: Somewhere between Wigan, Hull and Hull KR. We aren't talking about the most fans here but the worst fans. I'll use Bilko's argument about Wigan and the 2 occasions they've attempted to kick off at the HJ, not to mention the arrogance of the fans. What gets me the most is the people who have supported the club since the move to the JJB, but live in the glory years of the club.

19862_1323383936.jpg This is Poorhouse Lane. And this is Neil, the rovers supporter who leads an exciting double life. For when Neil sponsors RLFANS an amazing transformation occurs. [color=#80BF40:1y1okols]Neil is Cabbageman[/color:1y1okols]. Ever alert for the call no injury too small!

I didn't realise we had to base our opinions on your experiences.
That'd make for a pretty short and boring thread

Ah yes, but Wigan are the biggest club in the world and can attract massive sponsors, world class players and win multiple trophies every year.
This time machine works wonders

The first time they've been superior to us is the first few games of this season.
Just because they can beat us in one off games doesn't mean they're our superior. We have consistantly finished above them every season for the past couple of decades. (In 2007 we were level on points because we had two points deducted. We was still consistantly better than them during that season.)
Regardless of what happened against Huddersfield last year, we finished higher and was one game away from the Grand Final where as they finished 10th.
Don't get arrogance confused with fact.

| Facilities - I'm embaressed to say Saints! (the Gents Loos are the stuff of Legend!!!)
Pitch - Bradford (those corners!!), Warrington (sack the groundsman, as well as the board, the manager/GM etc..)
Fans - Hull (FC & KR) - the only time I have EVER seen Riot Police at a RL game is when Hull or Hull KR are playing!!
(Saints fans sadly also get a mention - sing a song about sniffing glue followed by 10 minutes of silence - followed by a song about Ryan Bailey's amourous liasons at bathtime - followed by a further 10 minutes of silence only interrupted when Saints score a try!)

How far back you wanna go?
As someone as already said, sheer arrogance, there was a time when we were top and handing you your asses but you have to go back a bit longer than your tender years

| Worst Facilities: I'm not suprised at Wakefield being many peoples first choice but Wheldon Road is a dump too, amost as bad as Belle Vue.
Worst Pitch: I'll go with Bradford
Worst Fans: The feuding factions of Humber Town, for their constant derailing of any discussion.

Is not arrogance, it's general expection.
When you take into account Wigan and Huddersdfield's league finishes over the years and more importantly last year, you expect Wigan to finish above Huddersfield.
