The best team on the day won the semi final and Wire deserve their place in the final.
However your point about Saints no longer applies. Yes we lost twice and beat them only once this year but we lost by 7 and 4 points and won by 20 so are ahead on aggregate score despite losing twice. That record suggests that if either team in a Wigan v Saints final got a hammering it would have been Saints not us.

what a load of rubish, if wigan had got to the final, i think the semi said a lot, wire outnumbered wigan by a huge ammount and to be honest i think we'll take more to wembley than you would have!

How many season ticket holders do you have again? |

Why are you talking about attendances from each club, when the original post wasn't on about that at all?
Oh and by the way, I'd say the fact that we've finished top 4 years in a row, been to the last 3 grand finals and been Challenge Cup winners for the last 3, I'd say that we still are famous. Certainly moreso than Warrington. |

The question 'seeing as none of the glamour/famous clubs are present in the final, what do the RFL need to do to sell the game to new people?'
NOT how many fans will they take. That question has been done to death.'"

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

Stop it with all these facts, they are not welcome on RL fans. |

what hole?
was a reply to were not famous?...famous enough to have the second largest home average and have the largest away support. We didnt sell enough as the RFL paniked and took some of our tickets to give to you men as you sold out of yours. I know people who tried in the last week but it sold out. |
