Quote: The All New Chester Wire "So, we have to hope for something different to happen.....

First of all we have to beat whoever we end up playing next week.....

And we have to hope Leeds beat Wigan so that St Helens get ClubCall....

Then Wigan lose next week and St Helens will then pick that team....

Then we go to Headingley.....

Or something like that....

Most important thing - WIN NEXT WEEK!'"


Dont stress over it. When you finally beat us it will be in a game that counts. I would lay good money on you beating us in either that game at KR or the GF if the fixtures pan out that way.

Quote: Dropkick Murphy "If I was offered a choice now between beating Hull KR/Huddersfield next week, then winning at Knowsley Road the week after and LOSING the Grand Final,

OR

beating HKR/Hudds, then beating Wigan or Leeds the week after and WINNING the Grand Final without playing Saints after they lose to whoever else plays them, I think I would actually choose the winning at Knowsley Road option.

I don't care if that's small time, petty, obsessed, jealous, or whatever other derogatory superlative that could be aimed at me. There will be other Grand Finals to be won, there will never be another game at Knowsley Road, and winning it after sixteen years of torment there really will mean THAT much to me.

If we don't then that ground will haunt me for the rest of my days.'"


And that is why you are known as the bitters, and that is why you will always be a small club comperad to us. Its that ingrained small time mentality that sees small time victories as more important than the real stuff that matters. The GF will always matter more than a one off game against a rival to any truely proffesional team.

FWIW I have the same frustration with our own fans regarding the attitude towards Wigan. Like you with us, we will always be in their shadow due to the silly little mentaility of so many of our fans.

Warrington RLFC: The Wire, NOT Warrington Wolves FORZA WIRE:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_46584.jpg



To be fair it's just my own opinion and I imagine most people on here will disagree with me.

Let me tell you my scouse friend - when we do eventually beat saints in any game, important or not, home or away, it will not classed as a small time victory.

You have to experience it from our side of the fence to understand. It must be the same for you when you face Leeds in a Grand Final.

...............small club mentality also includes taking the view of one individual and declaring it the view of the entire fan base. Even the poster sees the truth of this. As an older fan I've seen Wire beat Saints plenty of times so whether or not we win again at KR before it's knocked down is irrelevant to me.

This type of person is more prevalent in your fanbase than in others. obviously not all fans but a massive hardcore of proven terminally bitter people towards us.
