Do you like being called the Warriors? What does it mean? What is in a name?

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

I concur, never referred to Wigan as the Warriors and never will.

This topic could well hold the record for number of threads.
I make this number 1,324 on the subject.

It's only a matter of time before the Warriors tag is dropped IMO.

I'd love to start 2010 being called Wigan RLFC.

The whole forum has been pretty quite since we have improved in the league, not as much moaning or is it due to being knocked out of the cup.

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 - FIOS:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_39110.jpg



I would say I am of the younger generation and I would like us to be Wigan RL again.

Yeah but there's the younger generation (you) then there's the younger generation....i.e. Five. It seems these are the ones who like the tag. icon_biggrin.gif

I don't think they would see a difference.

If we begin to use it more and it works then I am all for it, but we don't even seem to use the tag 'Warrior'.

The five year olds would probably like the players to dish out ice creams at half time and for lenaghan to sign miley cyrus and the teletubbies too.

Each to their own i say, but one thing that does annoy me is how the media refer to us as the warriors and latics as wigan. it's even started to creep in to the town.
