[size=50:2fqgwsdo]"The mid-to-late 1980s and early-to-mid-1990s is the most successful period for the club to date, however, even without this glorious trophy laden period, Wigan would still have won more trophies than any other professional British rugby league club due to their successes throughout the club's history."[/size:2fqgwsdo]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_52674.jpg



Was talking about this with the bloke who said the quote below the other day. Can you recall any classic one liners, anything to do with rugby by coaches, players, commentators, pundits, or fans on the terraces.

My starter for ten is a fans one that happened at Workington Town many years ago. We were watching the game behind the sticks and another Wigan fan behind us was talking absolute *&%^$ all through the match. The half time hooter went and he then said, "thats half time then", to which my mate turned round and said, "that's the first thing you got right all match". Following which he had to shut up as everyone started laughing at him.

I enjoyed the Crusaders fan at the Huddersfield play off standing up and shouting "You're just a fat Robby Savage" to Eorl Crabtree. The chanting started about 2 minutes later and had me in ters!! icon_biggrin.gif

An Alex Murphy classic.

It was a couple of days before the 1989 Wembley final, and Saints' big solution to having to face Graham Lowe's unstoppable Wigan juggernaut was to pay a ridiculous fee for Welsh Rugby Union's lumbering prop Stuart Evans.

Garry Gration: "How long do you think it will take Stuart to learn the game?"

Murph: "Well, he's got 'til Saturday".

[color=#FF0000:1fnfdzuc]Wigan vs Leeds finals aggregate score. Wigan 178 - 64 Leeds Wigan wins - 6 Leeds wins - 0[/color:1fnfdzuc] I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass, and I am all out of bubblegum. Don't you struggle. Don't you fight. Don't you worry, cause it's your turn tonight! Esse quam videri.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_45658.jpg



I haven't got any classic one liners sadly. But I once sat behind two old blokes in the East stand going back about 10 years when the stadium had more or less just opened, and my brother happened to notice that the old bloke in front was wearing a bra. So as you do we couldn't help but stair and to our despair every time Wigan scored the guy would jump up and his T-shirt would ride up his back to reveal a black thong. Needless to say that encouraged our move to the West stand.

Then on a separate incident a friend of mine whilst eating a pie at the JJB happened to flick an inch square piece of pie crust down the back of the T- shirt and coat of the gentlemen in front. It's safe to say I've never seen anyone untuck multiple layers of clothing as quick to retrieve a burning hot piece of pie crust. The guy mellowed eventually after by friend bought him a drink to say sorry.

I thought Brian Carney announcing on live TV that he was 'as happy as a rabbit with two cocks' was quite funny.

And the name of the player escapes me, but one bloke was awarded man of the match and was approached by the pitchside interviewer to ask how it felt. He replied 'Man of the match? We wus ALL F**KIN man of the match!'

2 classic Alex Murphy quotes about Joe Lydon

"He opened his legs and showed his class"

"It's like a walking day in Belfast" When Joe was left with an open field in front of him.

[size=100:2md8k3b3][b:2md8k3b3]'Do you remember when we had that meeting in Orlando? We talked about how we were knocked out the previous year by Leeds. And at the end, I asked you one question. "Do you want to be a semi-final team? Or do you want to do something special?" You all said you wanted to win. But talking is easy – it needed you to believe. It needed you to work hard – harder than you had – and make sacrifices. You did all that. you worked for each other. You stuck together when it was tough. And because of your efforts, you sit here tonight as champions. I'm proud of you. Be proud of yourselves. You've done something special.' [color=red:2md8k3b3] Shaun Wane's post-Grand Final speech. 5th October 2013.[/color:2md8k3b3][/b:2md8k3b3][/size:2md8k3b3]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_16304.jpg



During a Sky game a few years ago I remember two fans on the terraces at Wakefield holding up signs near the big screen saying "STEVO IS GAY" and "KNOB OUT".

Childish but still very funny.

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



What about
Quote: Saddened! "


But my favourite was the Wigan fan at Warrington.
The crowd were singing the referees a (*)anker.
He turned to his mate and said "I wish his father had been"

Whatever happened to Billy McGinty's pineapple? "unless you hit it directly at Paul Wellens, it's several minutes before he'll arrive at the ball." Saddened "I'm done. Brown out. If LMS, Turner or Walker get in any match day squad i will not be attending from now on in." LFC Saint:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_41943.jpg



Grand Final 2010:

Bill Arthur to Tommy Leuluai live on Sky Sports - "Tommy, congratulations a man of the match performance, steering the side around the park, Harry Sunderland winner, Grand Final winner, how does that feel?"

Tommy - "It feels awesome, we played team footy, dont know what to say it's fuc king awesome"

Bill Arthur - "Thanks tommy, apologies for that it was in the heat of the moment!!"
