I've gone every year for over 25 years, irrespective of who's playing.
I've only ever supported 3 teams at the final,
1) Wigan
2) Whoever's playing Saints
3) The underdogs.
Wigan not playing actually takes the pressure off, and allows the long weekend to be enjoyed without any butterfiles and worries
. The banter with other fans is always great, especially in the pub(s)
after the match. (The hostelries we visit tend not to be on the Radar of the gobby, brain-dead element
)
