Firstly if 30,000 had turned up to watch us batter London in the sunshine a lot would have been disappointed
Secondly if just the die hards turn up at Old Trafford if we're lucky enough to get there it'll make for a sorry sight
I have no intention of going to the game tomorrow night but I will be the first to claim my ticket for the GF if we get there
I have my reasons for selecting my games as do a lot of fans and nobody whether they go to one game a year or never miss one need to justify themselves to anyone.
Am I a true fan?........who knows?
I hardly missed a Warrington game from the mid 1970s to the late 1990s. In that time I've had my car stolen in Huddersfield been involved in a pile up in a blizzard on the Pennines been arrested in Workington and had my head kicked in at Salford. I've followed my team to the south of France and I probably have more replica Warrington tops than most. Am I a true fan?....who knows?
I'll be a bag of nerves tomorrow and if the game is close towards the end I'll be hiding behind the sofa or turning over and watching Knots Landing. I'll be absolutely over the moon and will get bladdered if we win and I'll be despondent and downhearted and will get bladdered if we lose!! Am I a true fan?.........Who knows?
What I do know is that we should embrace anyone who turns up and cheers us on at any game. If you want to attend every game we play well bully for you!! I turn up when I can or more so when I want to. I'm a massive fan of Warrington and couldn't care two hoots if anyone thinks that by not turning up ay every game I'm not!!

What a hero!

People make the effort for finals too, I'm working next Saturday, if Wire don't make it I'll miss the final completely as I'll have no access to it.
If Wire make it I'll move heaven and earth to get there.
If this was just a normal game for Wire then again I would miss it, it's way to much hassle and currently I am bare bones in my current account.
People just make the effort.

I also wonder if you only counted someone once, how many individual Wire fans would walk in the HJ in one season, 20k?

Obviously there's no way to know, but it will be less than that I reckon. About 15-16,000 if that.

We only get big crowds (14-15,000) at games with big away supports there too.

Lol...no more! I used to be young!! I do have one signed by the great Murph himself, I have one that was worn by John Dalgreen and I've got a bobble hat signed by Geoff Clarkson and Wilf Briggs!!

Well I think you have to look on the bright side, Salford don't have enough fans to beat you up these days.

I was just thinking what do you have to do in Workington to get arrested. When I was last up there, (last 90's granted) it was a cross between the Wild West and The Hill's Have Eyes!

Urinating in a litter bin swung it for me!! Mind you that was in the late 70's I think it'd probably be ok now!!

Surely a true fan is one who still cringes when he hears Wire being referred to as 'Wolves'??......

Absolutely!
