I think it will only properly sink in when we win it next year icon_wink.gif

Seriously though, cant wait to go to Saints Leeds and Warrington away singing 'thats why we're champions'

It was annoying when Leeds and Saints sung it, but we will make it more annoying than anyone ever could icon_biggrin.gif

Remember this....

From 6 mins... "Come on Saints" "They'll cheat better than you can cheat". HAHA! FAIL!

It wouldn't surprise me if we aren't referred to as champions. In 97 and 98 when the then champions struggled, Eddie bigged up super league. In 99 when we struggled he belittled us. So what?

I cant wait to sing 'you've only come to see the champions'

Might be me being daft but not understanding this 'We're not famous anymore' chant - is it meant to refer to something in particular?

We're not famous anymore?

Ironic chant. Like United fans singing 'Who the fook are Man United" when they score because that was a chant directed at them by opposition fans pretty much as 'You're not famous anymore" was directed at us during the lean years.

It's tongue in cheek I suppose & typical of Wiganers in general who have always tended to take criticism from our enemies and turn it into a positive like pie-eaters (a term we now embrace) and Wigan Pier (a music hall joke that was made a tourist attraction)

Opposition fans sung it as they said we wasnt famous no more due to us having a e spell and winning nothing.
