I wouldnt, I usually go and watch Coventry City purely for the comedy value and to watch the mongy Cov fans get wound up

Whereas watching Union just frustrates me!

Who?

I would watch some games if Whelan had nowt to do with them, the less money I can give him the better

Oldham Athletic

FWIW I would try and go to watch both if i didn't live in London, although i'd probably have to pick and choose the footy games because of cost. I've seen them play a bit down here and i feel pretty proud to have the Warriors bossing Super League and the Latics just having a presence in the Premier League. Obviously, it looks like i'm in a minority...

You're the mentality thats missing that I dont understand why its missing.

Though if you read Cockney Latic I can see why noone would want to associate with that crowd. If they go down all those idiots will probably run off though and the Latics will be worthy of support but not just now.

It's getting like that cockney latics forum on here let them argue about us i dont care what they do

I hope they go down and stay down

I'm happy to admit I support both Warriors and the Latics. I don't understand the reasoning behind why some people from each side hate the other, but that might be to me being 17 and not old enough to know about it.

One town, two teams in my eyes.

Is that reply an exact example of whats wrong not just with Rubgy and Football in Wigan but for all the major conflicts in the World. Middle East, Irish paramilitary etc. We all got to hate someone as some bigot somewhere told us to do so. Look at us Welsh im supposed to not like the English for someting that happened in 1280ish. Bloody heck i cant remember what i did last week. But most of the people i know really hates the English for doing sod all to them but something happended very serious and very bad which no one is certain of but knows it happened. Ohh and it was the English to blame.

No one bloody knows why the Latics hates the Warriors. They have an apparent reason for it but personally i think its jealousy.

totally agree, I have absolutely no interest in football.

the only reason I would be bothered if the Latics were relegated was if it affected WRLFC in any way.

I don't hate them, I just don't care about them.

I have absolutely no interest in football, especially latics, although I had to watch man u v chelsea the other night due to the other half being man u mad!
Just had a look at that cockney latic forum, the non football message boards first 5 threads include the rugby! theres about 15 threads about the rugby, obsessed much?

Sadly not. Some of the old timers could tell you about the abuse suffered on the old website when Latics were in the 3rd league tier, or whatever it was called then.

going by titles, there are 13 titles about rugby (I presume "ellegren jackets" is about us) out of however many threads there is. God knows how many threads are about the rugby under a general title!
Theres a couple of people on there who put them right when they're talking poop about us though, jewel, Eagle Eye and Wigan Peer (isn't WP on here too?)
