The first ones in line for that pie-in-the-sky
And we're always the last when the cream is shared out

| Most Warrington fans i know, say they have always considered Wigan as their 'enemy'. With Widnes and St Helens probably marginally coming second. Suprised Salford hasn't cropped up yet.

| hhm I am not too sure, I watched a few old Widnes dvd's last week, and one of which was Wires away 91 cup quart final at Wildernesspool, and as Warrington walked out the crowd were singing 'who flippin ell are Wigan?'. Heard that chant several times through the game, and only a couple of about us. Not that you go off what the crowd sing etc, but suppose that does give some indication.
Don't know what Wigoon fans make of it, don't really know any tbh.
Now Stains, that a different matter completely, one side of my family are Tellins born and bred, and I also work in the town. I have spoken to various people about their opinions on a Wires V Stains local derby match, and while they all agree there is a good turnout and atmosphere (more so from the warry speccies) it will never compete with a Wigan game. Interesting, but I suppose in this kind of scenario, everyone has their own view.

| I used to miss playing Widnes....But i'm afraid things move on...
I was in Barcelona for the Catalan game and it occured to me...
Having a drink on Las Ramblas in glorious weather then watching the match at the Olympic Statdium...
Or a drink in the Cricketers arms then the Stobart stadium with the smell of S**t drifting over..
Mmm tough choice...

To be fair you don't play in Spain every week do you???
Widnes could easily say the same abouv Chavvington Vs Toulouse in 2 weeks

The first meeting in SL resulted in a Widnes win at Wilderspool. The rush of blood that was created in the nether-regions, resulted in mass fainting in the away end.

Right, so its been a while then. SHame, widnes always been my 2nd team, enjoyed wtaching them in the early 80's, couldnt fail to be impressed by their squad back them. Be great see them back in the big time, with a strong squad and giving it a go...much better than "waste of space" salford who offer and bring nothing to teh game of RL and shoudl be wound up and sent off to amateur world...

| fair enough. I cba with all the bickering whilst we are not in the same division tbh. In terms of Sl era, Warrington probably won more games, but it wasn't as one sided as you make out SS, I think it worked in 'seasons'. One year we'd win all games, then vice versa the following year. Weird.
Whilst I appreciate you dislike the pies more, will you ever be considered their 'enemy'?
