| You lot need to give your heads a wobble. Talk about delusions of grandeur. Tony Smith won you the LLS and got you to Old Trafford just five games ago.
You were outclassed last night but that is no reason to sack the coach. You were all ecstatic less than a month ago after beating Brisbane with a brilliant performance. Mind you this madness isn't confined to Wire fans. Last August many Wigan 'fans' wanted Wane out, which just shows how knowledgeable your average fan is. Luckily Lenegan and Moran aren't average fans.

If I was a Wigan fan, I too would want Tony Smith to continue as the Wire coach, in a similar fashion, that both clubs` fans do not want Kieran Cunningham to leave Saints.
When was the last time Warrington beat Wigan in a cup/play-off game?
Last night Wigan could have won by a cricket score if Wane had wanted to.
He knows he has the measure of Smith in the vital matches, so it suits him, to keep Smith there in the knowledge that for the time being, his team will continue to win when the two clubs meet-up.

Cant wait for next season already.

| Lol...I was going to ask the same question.
I have never seen Wire beat Pies in a final other than the Locker Cup charity game in my lifetime.

Fairly sure that was rhetorical! But I believe it was the CC semi in 2009 when Matt King scored a hat trick.
Funny how things work out, remember feeling that Tony Smith totally out-thought Noble that day, and it was Wigan who had the problem of a coach who couldn't take us to where we needed to be. Come to think of it, it was probably that game which sealed his fate and lead to us going after Maguire.

1980 Warrington v Wigan Lancashire Cup Final?
If you was there, then I would also expected you to attend
1982 St Helens v Warrington Lancashire Cup Final.

Yes, I forgot about that . 16-0 at Wigan
I did see them draw in a Final against Saints but lost the replay.

| Quote: JonnoTheGreat "While you've started the season poorly, some of the abuse Smith is coming in for is well over the top.
Calling him a 'cretin', plus other insulting stuff, sums up just how classless Dire fans really are.
You're not a Big Club, but look at the success TS has brought to Warrington over the last 8 years. You were nowhere near this before he took over, last winning anything way back in 1991 (the hugely 'prestigious' Regal Trophy).
You may not rate him as a coach anymore, but some of the stuff being dished out to him is bang out of order.'"
dont class all wire fans the same,but i do agree with you about the abuse tony smith is getting at the moment..its totally out of order to call him a cretin after giving us trips to wembley and old trafford and winning the league..probably once the poster as calmed down he`ll realise how silly he`s been.

I saw us beat St Helens, back in the early 80s. But still can't remember ever beating Wigan in a final. Please tell me. Rattling my brain.

We beat Saints in 1974 in the Premiership Final at Central Park.
