Oh right, so not close to going bust, people attempting to merge you with Hull FC and spending years and years going to grounds like Batley and Whitehaven.
All your local talent going to a nearby club even though they supported Rovers as kids and being told year on year that Super League wont allow 2 Hull clubs in it.
You must have all been in despair for ages then

Two words ...
Central Park

I cried a little bit - I know its not the grand final but it has been ten years since we finished top and I feel so proud of the boys!

SOFT GIT !

so glad that no-one tried to merge US with Hull FC it sounds like we had a lucky escape there!
Get real mate we were never going to get merged but our financial situation was desperate, our stadium is now a supermarket, we were humiliated by our rivals two weeks in a row, we had a succession of what could only be described as poor players, the club itself was desperately mis-managed to the point where we could have been disaserously relegated.
These things are all relative, may not seem such a big deal to smaller clubs who have had their own fair share of problems but to Wigan the last 10 years has probably been the worst sustained period in the clubs history and I for one am not the least bit ashamed or embarassed to say the club HAS been through alot and I'm very proud to see us finally turn the corner.

When Saints win it - it's just a hubcap.

When Wigan win it - the fans cry!



Congratulations - well deserved and have everything crossed that we can play you at Old Trafford, what a night that would be.

Thank you! And what can we say - we're hypocrites

It's what being a fan is all about



As an aside - nice to see the big lancs teams occupying the top three - hopefully an all lancs affair at OT in the pipeline for the first time since 2000. Same result would be nice too!

How gutted will you be when Leeds do the double then..

Not very - would rather Leeds won the GF than Wigan.

Leeds won't win anything without Peacock though IMO; they would even have lost to a halfback-less Saints in the semi had JP not played.
