Quote: You're not famous anymore "It is just Saints you would beat. I dont know anybody who has said Wigan are not a force, nor anyone who has said they are finished. Wigan will never again dominate British RL. I certainly know of nobody who has said Wigan are no longer famous. You have cheated. Siege mentality is all well and good but in this case it is very, very false.

You have no idea what it is like to be a Wigan fan in the noughties. Plenty of chants/taunts have been aimed at Wigan saying that we're not a force anymore. Particularly at your ground. "You're not famous anymore", "you're not Wigan anymore" etc.
Wigan never cheated either. They broke the spirit of the cap - the spirit of the cap doesn't exist. We deferred payments to stay under the cap. Nothing in the laws of the game against that. Not ethical, but perfectly legal. And anyway, does a Saints fan really want to discuss cheating?

You'd never understand. You've never seen your side play like the Wigan in the 90's. And you've never had a coach who would be brought to tears just making his pre-match/half-time speech.

You are exactly the kind of person I'm referring to.
Quote: You're not famous anymore "Emulating the greats ? Are you not embarassed by this post ? You're in your first final for 8 years and now you're 'emulating the greats'. Funny stuff.'"
Not at all. Wigan have every chance of emulating them.

Hurts, doesn't it?
Quote: You're not famous anymore "There will be a large crowd support for both sides. Lets not get carried away.'"
Have you sold out your end now?
I guarantee the Wigan support will be more vociferous than the Saints lot.
Quote: You're not famous anymore "Nonsense, utter nonsense. It would mark a return from being distinctly average to being a competitor. Welcome to the big boys table, its been a while.'"

I think some people are a little rattled. To be expected.
