When Crusaders came to Wrexham. Friends asked me to go to the Leeds game. Haven't looked back since. Love the game of Rugby League.

Used to go Warrington Town with next door neighbours, however one night they asked if I wanted to go the rugby.

That was back in 1993, I bought a Wolfpack for £10 the day after and have had a season ticket every year. I haven't been a Warrington Town game since though.

Quote: WireFanatic III "My first season was 2002 where I was invited by one of my best friends. It was the high scoring game at home against St Helens that we lost, I think it was 46-34.

Previously, I did see RL on Sky, but only took a passing interest because it was Warrington and I lived in the town. After my debut game though, I was hooked and the following season got myself a season ticket and not looked back since. I've also completed the RFL referee's course.

My mum has started watching us aswell after getting into it via myself and my uncle, and she also has a season ticket in the East Stand, so planning on going on a few road trips!'"

Anyone that started in 2002 and carried on after that season deserves a pat on the back.

By accounts WFIII is a right miserable 2-hat, so it fits his profile icon_lol.gif

The game that got me into rugby league was the Halifax v Saints Challenge cup final 87 I think, watched it on tv because my uncle + cousin had gone and been hooked on the game since.
Started going to Warrington games in the early 90s with a mate of my dads (my mum + dad stopped going in the nid 70s) and not looked back since. First game was Widnes away (the boxing day game with the fire in the main stand at half time.).

Went to the Wolves vs Rhinos match at Wilderspool, playing RL for my primary school in the Miller 7's. Was in the Rodwell season, and we lost the match 40 -34 or something like that. Barely missed a match home or away for the rest of the year and been hooked ever since.

First game was 1975 cup final at wembley when we lost to the chemics. Started going regular the season after that with my dad & brother and have been a season ticket ever since. Now take my 15 year old son whos first season was the last at Wilderspool.
Its been a rollercoaster ride but I wouldnt have missed any of it for all the good, and bad, memories. Wire are the best club in the world & I tell my lad to enjoy what he is seeing at the moment - this is superb stuff compared to some of the sheeite I have watched over the last 30 odd years. Old Trafford & Wembley this year folks - enjoy the ride.

I was invited to Wildespool by a colleague who films the games for Wire training sessions. That was about 1997, remember first game, was against Saints and after went into players bar and met Paul Sculthorpe.
My own kids come now and are part of the 'teenagers' much decried by many on the board, take it from me, they are essentially harmless if fed at meal times.

Mine is an odd one; the bird I was knocking around with won 'Miss Warrington Rugby League' and we used to get free tickets were she would do the HT draw, serve tea in the Directors Lounge etc (ohh the glamour).

Been going ever since.
