The fans are not to blame for anything, without them the club is nothing.

One thing missing from the debate – improvement.

Surely we’re better than last season, we’ve won 2 games already.

Throughout the thread you’ve all alluded to the most important factors, the great infrastructure of the club, plus the fact we’ve got money these days. We’re too good for 2 wins in 5, so that trend will most likely not continue. If that becomes 2 from 6, it’ll be 3+ from the next 6.

It’s obvious, we’ll improve this season on the last, then get even better. We’re reliant on Roberts for that and you can’t expect him to come all the way from Australia and be brilliant straight away. He’s too good for Super League, if we can get the best out of him during the next few years, we’ve no worries.

Dreading reading this forum Monday morning if we lose to St Helens.

Quote: JonnoTheGreat "Warrington fans have unrealistic expectations and think they are a Big Club when the bottom line is they've not been champions since the 50s.

They also believe they are a major rival of Wigan when they are not. Middle 8s last season for you wasn't it?

Every season the Wire lot spout off about being Super League champions and it just doesn't happen. No wonder fans of every club hammer you with that 'its always your year' chant.'"


What utter . You won't find many Wire supporters saying "it's our year". If anything I'd say the majority are quite realistic and just want a team that entertains, anything else is a bonus. We also have sense of humour hence why we join in the chant. All down to Sky repeating the same "is this Warrington's year" BS. The sarcastic "it's always our year" flag 2 years ago didn't help though, we'll be stuck with it until we do win the big one, which could be a while yet!

He sounds like a Saints fan the way he talks.
Can't recall their last win of any cup tbh.

What a load of old shyite.

I’ve only read one post this Winter that’s said we should be looking at being champions come Autumn, ONE. If anything Wire fans are pessimistic compared to other sets of fans! What we have understood is that our team from 2010-2013 was one of the best teams of the last few decades that we’re not crowned champions and financially we are in a position that not many other clubs are in. So we’ll voice dissatisfaction when the club isn’t run well from top to bottom. There’s no excuses why it isn’t with the backing we have. But nowhere in that do we say “we’ll win the lot”

That chant comes from Stevo tipping either us or Hull FC to win the GF every year for about six years but it seems to have stuck with us with other sets of fans because we lost three GFs rather than sticking with Hull. It never had anything to with us fans lauding our team and saying we’d win it.

Ever since then simpletons make generalisations and get the wrong end of the stick like you have here.

As for Wigan, WE look at Wigan as big rivals because we’ve been in a lot of big games against them in recent years. We don’t care how they look at us. But that’s how rivalries start (that or comparing trophy wins). That’s why Wigan and Saints has no real rivalry before the 1950s because Saints never had any big games with Wigan and had barely won a thing before the mid-50s (1 championship 0CCs in their first 80 years) and probably never registered on any other club’s radars. But then when they started winning things, they did.
