Your question is a little mundane and pointless and tbh very disrespectful, why can't some fans from the so called "big four" not understand that this fixture demonstrates that rugby league may be becoming more competitive in this country, which can only be good for the game and it's profile'"
As a fan of Rugby League in general - Its difficult to argue your point 'cos you're dead right.
As a hard-hearted Wigan fan though - Losing to Dire in the Semi still sucks!  |

In the old days the rest of the country would have been much more interested in, and watched the final than nowadays. Lets face it, there wasnt much choice. It was either the CC Final or wrestling on ITV.
On 29th August i bet more people will be watching the football scores on SSN than the final. Their loss i suppose, but thats the way it is.
In all honesty i'd rather watch the football scores coming through than the Heineken Cp Final, but i bet when i was a lad, i'd have watched the RU Final as there was nowt else on.

| Quote: Chris McKean "Fair enough if that's your opinion. Would you mind explaining yourself though
They have the edge on the interchange, mainly due to Crabtree, and I haven't listed them below but I think our starting options more than cover that
Adrian Morley - 8 - Keith Mason
Michael Monaghan - 9 - Scott Moore
Gareth Carvell - 10 - Darrell Griffin
Louis Anderson - 11 - Stephen Wild
Ben Harrison - 12 - Liam Fulton
Ben Westwood - 13 - David Faiumu'"
you having a laugh mate |

The last time Dire won anything the mullet was still in fashion, there was no channel tunnel show how long ago it was, Dire never has been or never will a big club hope they enjoy there party but remember the present hasn`t been opened yet as for Bulls show where they are today even there own fans have jumped ship.

They do say that the best way to make a delusion seem real is to keep on reiterating it. You know, it's the old "tell a lie often enough and everyone will believe it" routine.
That, I'm guessing, is what you wusses are trying to do on here. But you're wasting your breath, because we know it isn't true. And so do you.

| Quote: manco "But it IS true mate, ask any non-wiganer if wigan are still a strong force in RL and i suspect you will get a vast majority of answers in the negative, it seems that since the day that the wigan club were found out as cheats nothing seams to have gone right for them, poetic justice me thinks.'"
I'd be more inclined to believe you if you didn't keep saying it - as if you were trying to convince yourself.
Big clubs don't need to announce their arrival. The world already knows about them. But then the last time you lot made the headlines was when you paid a fortune for a very washed-up, soon to be scandal-struck Aussie to play two matches for you. Even today, several of the dailies were less congratulatory and more concerned that your appearance in the Cup Final would cause attendance problems.
I happen to think you'll sell out, but that will be despite you not because of you. Whereas if it was us, there'd no problem - as you well know but would never have the balls to admit. |

Think you'll find they were on about hudds low following, but hey why let facts get in the way? and wasn't it the same stuff as what hocks now banned for, and fielden's been stealing his wages for ages now! |
