Warrington has the most passionate fans in RL. Fact.
Challenge Cup WINNERS 2009,2010,2012.
Not living in the 80s like Widnes.: |
|
|
For me it's the extremely dull 'come on you Saints' from St Helens fans. Awful stuff.
Also annoying is the chant of 'Wigoon, Wigoon' from Wigan fans while pointing their fingers in unison.

Funny that, since 'Come On You Saints' was the only chant to be heard in the Halliwell Jones tonight!

The worst were the 'We are staying up' chants in the days of automatic P&R. Like it's an achievement to not be the worst team in the league.

We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47035.gif |

It is!!!!
It may not be the crowning achievement, but it's certainly an achievement. |

Nothing wrong with celebrating a victory at different levels.
It's like saying you can only celebrate if you win the league. It's a really negative attitude. |

I've always cringed when teams from this side of the Pennines start the 'Yorkshire Yorkshire' chant. Just seems really parochial.

I always used to enjoy that at The Willows, when Leeds fans started from the North Stand - and after a few "Yaaarkshires", the Shed would reply "Baaa" |

What about 'wires, wires, wires' then? Seem to have accidentally missed out that one?
I like those chants in the right situation, I do think they are daft when nothing really is happening, though. |

Not too bothered what the fans of teams want to chant. I'm usually just glad they do to create a decent atmosphere inside the grounds.

23 - 20 - 4
Warrington led 16-2 in Saturday's Grand Final, but their joy was short-lived as Wigan roared back to win the Super League title and extend the Wire's 58-year wait to be champions:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10174.png |

Yeah, it's interesting that after years of Wire fans abusing Wigan for singing that, they have decide to copy it for themselves  |
