These two sets of fans seem to have give each loads of stick over the last few years, more so than they've given to their so-called traditional rivals as in Widnes for Wire and St Helens for Wigan.

So with Saturdays huge encounter in mind...

Is it fair to suggest Wigan and Warrington see each other as their biggest rivals thesedays?

Yes

not if you're a wigan fan

No

They are definitely our biggest rivals but I don't think the feeling is mutual.

If you had asked do they see each other as the hardest opponent to beat then maybe most would have said yes. But Stains are the antichrist and always will be. IMO I think most pies would always support who ever were playing stains in any game. Whereas quite a few would want Wolves to beat any Yorkshire team and quite a few teams from this side of the pennines and definately would want them to beat Stains

Are they still darn pit wondering when the next shift change is, 'Wee'us next shift John? uewor maud mus be pig sick, bin darn ere berrt 10 yeer narr'

Staines are like the wasp sting, Wire the bluebottle which keeps buzzing around.
Do not want a wasp sting the bluebottle just bat it away with a rolled up Oldham Chron, if you get my drift.

Yes. Without a shadow of a doubt. I dislike saints, I hate warrington. Wigan v saints has become like a friendly rivalry over the last few seasons. The warrington game has an edge to it, it is a genuine dislike of eachother.
