23 - 20 - 4
Warrington led 16-2 in Saturday's Grand Final, but their joy was short-lived as Wigan roared back to win the Super League title and extend the Wire's 58-year wait to be champions:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10174.png |

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

Nobody backed us to win a trophy at the start of the season. Some opposition fans said we would be mid-table.
Now we have won the challenge cup and I'm confident we can get to the final week of the play-offs with a fully fit squad. Not bad.

We are pretty quick to slag off Saints fans for thinking SL only started once they started winning so we need to be careful here!
The best statistic of all is 19 CC wins. No one can argue with that.

We've only won 2 less trophies than Leeds now in the summer era (CC & SL combined) and to think this has been Leeds greatest era ever.

With "two less than Leeds" you are damning us with faint praise. Who cares? RL history didn't start when the summer era did. We just added another notch to a fantastic record in the history of the sport. |

You're on the Wigan board again. |

The popular perception is that Leeds have been fantastic in the summer era and Wigan have had one of their poorest spells but it is still only 2 behind Leeds summer era trophy haul. As Wigan fans we shouldn't be too disheartened. |

| We're doing just fine. I'd throw the LLS into the mix, and go back to the start of the post Noble era. Of the 11 available trophies, we have won 5. Saints have sadly won nothing in that time.  |

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

Have you included the Premiership wins in that trophy count? If not you should. |

Rule 1. I am always right.
Rule 2. If in any case I appear wrong, refer to rule 1.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_42170.jpg |

Granted you can only play what is put in front of you, but considering the teams you played to get into the final and the performance of Hull in the final I'd hardly say this particular cup win tells much of your title credentials. |

Dan Sarginson: "This is a fantastic opportunity for me to join the biggest name in the competition" 18/10/2013
Tony Clubb: "This is a new exciting chapter of my life signing for Wigan and I couldn't be happier" 18/10/2013
Romain Navarrete: “I’m very happy to have signed for Wigan Warriors. As soon I knew that Wigan were interested, they were the only team that I wanted to sign for. To me, Wigan is the biggest Club in Rugby League and it will be an honour to pull on the famous Cherry-and-White jersey next year. I look forward to working with Shaun Wane and the players at Wigan.”:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10172.jpg |

He said we could get to the final week of the play-offs with a fit squad. Where in that post did he say we had title credentials? |
