39110_1363272058.jpg 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

| Quote: Smooth Stu "Fantastic idea. Our armed forces aren't particularly well looked after normally, so it's great that the club has done this.
It's a win-win for the club as the seats would otherwise have been empty, the soldiers will probably buy some food and drink, the attendance numbers are inflated and the atmosphere will be better.
There's also a chance it will generate interest for future fans.
Now I'm not saying the club are only doing this for selfish reasons, but it's not as if they are spending £10,000 in reality.'"
They are not spending anything to let them in, it's not like the tickets would have been bought anyway. There is a chance they might bring mates or family as well. It's a great idea! The crowd should be pushing 17,000 I think.

No known famous fans. Town apparently goes into hibernation when rugby league season ends.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_1956.jpeg |

| Wonderful news, our troops deserve every perk they can get and also very proud of the club for this involvement in a very worthwhile charity.
