Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

Exactly what happened when MM was on! | | |

In the 1990 they used to get good crowds at Wembley, remember the Kangaroo tours of 1990 and 1994, and the 1992 World Cup Final there were 73000 odd at that, there were 66000 odd in the 1995 World Cup Final.
Mind you this was the era when there were guys like Offiah, Robinson, Newlove, Farrell, Schofield, Edwards in the team. All of whom were comfortably ahead of their equivalents today.

'There's only one code of rugby.': |
|
| I think it's a great idea. I'm starved of quality rugby living in Twickenham  A lot of fans need to stop moaning, get off their backsides and get behind England. I'm sure there are quite a few southern RL fans who'd like a go, esp given the number of Kiwis and Aussies living in the capital... | | | |

Went to them all, great games with super atmosphere's. Also went to the GB vs NZ game where Robinson scored in the corner.
I really thought that 1995 World Cup Tournament was the start of something big with RL, check out the atmosphere on Youtube....incredible!!
Well, I'll start sticking the 50p's in the jar until tickets go on sale. | | |

| Quote: Boris "All depends on how the matches are marketed and sold to the potential audience.'"
Everybody blames the marketing but the fact is pretty much every RL fan knows when these games are on, when there's low crowds its because the RL community isn't interested. You aren't going to be convinced to go just because you see a few more posters. But you can bet when there's the heated discussion on rlfans about why the crowd is poor (when the game is in progress), people will be saying I haven't seen ANY posters for this game! | | | |
