| Paper it up how you want but Wire are at Wembley - we have a week off.
I know which position I would rather be in.  |

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery.......
I will look to the moment, and miraculously, the future will take care of itself.
Radio 5 Live, Sat, April 14th, 2007,...Dave Whelan, "In Wigan, rugby will always be king"
'I was certain, positive, convinced, and yet..........unsure'
'It's only rock 'n' roll, but I like it'
Worry will not prevent destiny from unfolding.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3632.jpg |

As a lover of banjo music, I'm very much looking forward to the Wire fans version of 'Abide with me'.

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

Being in the play-offs and them missing out plus the fact we beat them at our place has half made up for it, but we would have to get to the grand final to make up for it fully.

Well, as Wire fans on TotalRL are even now obsessing about Wigan RL being second-class citizens in their own town (with Wire's first Wembley appearance in 19 years less than 48 hours away!!!), I don't think they're in much of a position to whinge about the negative attitude of neutral clubs.
For what it's worth, I've no love for the Giants either. I didn't used to mind them, but that Cockney Giant prat who comes on here whenever we play them is a one-man bad publicity machine.

1 Giants fan doesn't speak for all of them though, I don't mind Fartown/Sheffield personally. I think they are producing some good rugby this year and I actually predicted them to finish in the top 4, didn't expect them to get to the CC final though and I can see them beating Wire as their defence is superb and have some good attacking players, more of a threat than Wire. |

A purple patch inspired on his home ground by man of the match WIGAN CAPTAIN Sean O’Loughlin produced three tries in an eight-minute spell just before half-time, and the GB Lions added two more after the break to maintain Smith’s 100 per cent record as Great Britain
coach.

I wont be watching but il be checking the score with a tinge of hope Fart Town win, even tho i canny stand them after Dean Hanger and his thick pals had a slash on the coals in the sauna in the Mcalpine stadium gym in 1999 ish thus rendering the sauna out of bounds and me missing out on my sauna! ... Bunch of clowns ![]()
In all honesty, if there was an award for the best reason for hating a rugby team...you'd win!
