If you say anything but Wigan you're lying. Cannot stand them and I don't care who knows it.

After that Widnes. As said above, I feel Saints has only existed in the Super League era (ie, when we lost to them every time).

Officially RLFAN's most Doe-eyed Happy Clapper. Big Steve wrote: The Internet has provided some wonderful creativity, opportunities and knowledge sharing but it has also given a worldwide forum for people you would leave a full pint behind in the pub to avoid having to listen to them. aboveusonlypie... If you don't bother to go to the game when you live in the locality then you are not really a fan and therefore your views are invalid. It's simple.:icons39ad_files/4821-1859san_c-msnicons.jpg



Interesting that people from different generations suggest different teams, Wigan, Widnes, Stains get a mention. And with the older fans saying Widnes and the younger saying Wigan. Only a small sample so far but it makes interesting reading. Some people also seem to be confusing "Best fixture" with "Rivalry".

Also, just to get you throwing stones at me if you have not already started, Wigan and Stains fans would not be in any doubt who their rival is icon_smile.gif

Widnes are the true enemy, end of discussion. It is irrelevant where any of the teams currently lie in terms of league position or playing strength. When hull kr were languishing in the northern ford prem did they no longer become hull fc's most hated team? Of course not.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled. For 27 - 0 you get a trophy For 75 - 0 you get sod all. Wigan had eight in a row Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg

Wigan without a doubt.

They are the biggest club in the world and have the biggest history of success which always made them the prime scalp from a historical point of view and also in the time where we have been good in recent years, it has been us and them that were the strongest teams. If we'd peaked a few years before then maybe we would have had big rivalry between us and Saints/Bradford but instead the main rivalry is with the Pies.

In recent years we have had a winning record against Wigan and they haven't beaten us very often so I can understand their fans enjoying more of a rivalry with Saints because it's more of a level playing field when those two meet.

Didn't William Webb Ellis pick up the ball and run, someone should really tell Rugby Union. www.squadbuilder.co.uk:1883.jpg



No-one. All pretenders, by definition, are inferior.

I suppose it depends on who you know! unfortunately in the days of us being crap throughout that 10 years without a win against Saints , i happened to be friends with a lot of Saints fans, ever since then beating Saints means 10x more than beating anybody else.

If either of you were languishing at the foot of the table after spending several years outside of the top division then it'd be no 'bigger' of a game than Wire v Widnes is today.
