| Quote: The Watcher "The Watcher always sings the song & did so last night with the vast majority of the Leigh faithful. He believes it is a witty & clever song but mainly it is just a way of cheering your team on & showing support. You really can take life to seriously sometimes you "anti flute song" people.'"
Correct,people must lead a very sheltered life if they get offended by that song,as you say its just a way of getting behind your team,probably the loudest song of the night. |

Brad Fitler "If the ref's decision decides your game. You haven't done enough prior."
Referees are like women, they make snap decisions and never reverse them.
[b]Littlerich wrote[/b] Widnes will be glad to get away from Leigh. They've been regularly pumped, roasted and left in the alley-way by the lobbygobblers. Talk about being bitched - what a torrid time they've had. They'll be looking for some A&E rest time for the next three years at least.:simpsons/PDT13.gif |

When I was young and had some sense
I bought a flute for 20 pence
The only tune that I could play
Was stuff Wigan Rugby and the IRA

More like they only had to change 'The pope' to 'Wigan Rugby'. Changing more lyrics would be too hard a task for them. |

How is education supposed to make me feel smarter? Besides, every time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out of my brain. Remember when I took that home winemaking course, and I forgot how to drive?:icons077e_files/4864-863FALH-msnicons.jpg |

It's just a way to get the words "F*c* Wigan Rugby" into a song - dozens of football clubs use it to abuse ther rivals, can't see nowt wrong with it myself. No one compalins when Saints chant "The referees a w*ank*r" every 5 minutes. Stop being preachy and get on with life!!

The very idea that folk in Leigh who join in with that song are bothered about Catholics or Protestants is silly.
The last line is because it scans.
Can you imagine that folk seriously equate Wigan with the loathsome IRA ?
Oh yeh you can't play the flute unless you are a Protestant.  |

It's not that that's the problem Frank.
It's this

I too am a Catholic from Leigh but none of the priests at St joes/St Gabriels/Holy Family ever suggested we should support the IRA - perhaps you went to a different parish! |

So you want RL to become like football. Last night was the first time I had heard RL fans chant the referees a ... since the late 80's. Leythers made plenty of noise but only garbage emerged. 15 minutes of anti Widnes chanting was desparate. |
