| Quote: Cruncher "Unfortunately none of our current playesr will remember a cup tie at Salford in 96, when Wigan were so confident of victory that quite a few of them went on holiday for a week instead of preparing for the game. When match day came, Wigan met a Salford team who were outraged to be treated with such disrespect, and subsequently kicked our asses right out of the competition, costing the club a fortune in the process.
I'll never forget that day. Salford were going through one of those faddy periods when they had an anthem for every occasion. It was 'The Vikings' for whenever they scored a try, and we seemed to be hearing it all through the afternoon. I realised we'd lost long before the end, though the referee (Holdsworth, was it?) bafflingly disallowed a Joe Lydon try when he was something like 60 yards away from the action, and that didn't help us much. But what a nightmare.
You disrespect lower-placed teams at your peril in the cup. And unfortunately, the current Wigan side has a worse habit for doing that than the previous one did.'"
Your spot on.
A cup tie is a cup tie, and while I fancy wigan for this one, there is no reason why Salford can't turn us over.
It only takes 80mins of us being as poor as we can be and we are out.
Oh, and can I just say...COME ON GATESHEAD  That would make my year if Saints got beat by them |

Quite right mate
You wigan lot really make me laugh with comments like its got "wigan saints final all over it"...dismissing teams in the semis (if you get there!) except for saints,i just hope to god cas go through and get you in the semis....because cas are quite good at dismissing clubs at their own peril (halifax) but in your case ,we dissmis you and usually win |

WIGAN WARRIORS ARE THE BEST!!:39917.jpg |
|
| Well Wigans game with salford wont be a walk over. But i think wigan will win but Hull kr V warrington will be a good game and it will be very close but i think Hull Kr will just sneak it. Gateshead V Saints will be a walkover by saints i knew they would draw them. Huddersfield V Castleford will be very close aswell but i think Huddersfield will just win.
COME ON WIGAN !!  |

If the players turn up with the right attitude we'll win the game and be through to the semis but counting on our lads to show up with that is'nt always plain sailing.
Salford will be well fired up for it but touch wood we should have too much.
The Hull Kr vs Wire game could be a classic.

Newsnight 13th May 2010: "With the role of Deputy Prime Minister a non-job. Has Nick Clegg gone from King Maker to tea maker????"
I kept the faith and I kept voting
Not for the iron fist but for the helping hand
For theirs is a land with a wall around it
And mine is a faith in my fellow man
Theirs is a land of hope and glory
Mine is the green field and the factory floor
Theirs are the skies all dark with bombers
And mine is the peace we knew
Between the wars:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_4486.png |

Looks like we've annoyed a few on the ole Salford Board talkin about this

We best stop talkin about the semis, teams can use this to their motivation if they think everyone expects them to lose!! |

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 |

Latics season will be over then so i don't see why not.
The tight owd git will want some form of income during the football season so any Wigan Rugby League game will be welcome.................during that period only. |
