What is it with Saints and Leeds and this last 10 or 15 years type argument.

When you talk about success there's either the past or the here and now.

Now correct me unless I'm wrong but we have BOTH sitting comfortably in our pocket right now.

What a time to be a Wigan fan

Your success is in the past just as our glory years are. Check the records because at the moment your trophy-less and were the Champions.

Pat Richards and Sam Tomkins only looked entertaining because their team mates were boring. Yes you have some exciting players to watch, but an exciting team to watch is a whole different matter.

You been drinking again Damo?

Not since this incident

You can talk about your past glories all your life if you wish and you should, but i've not seen anyone stating otherwise and as you well know your reign as Champs is in the past. We are the present, the CHAMPS!! and it seems to be getting under a lot of former Champs skins.

As a recent newcomer to this thread I suggest you go back a couple of pages?

The main crux is that conveniently lots of Leeds fans want to talk about History and decided that 10 years ago is the cut off point!
And Because Leeds Fans have decided that 10 years ago is the cut off point were not a big club unlike Bradford/Leeds & Saints!
We can't point to last year as that was a Fluke (Maybe) so were stuck with last 10 years, hence Bradford/Leeds/Saints fans know more tha us end of.
This is despite a lot of Wigan fans predicting 12/18 months ago that we were prgressing as a club very nocely and the future was bright, they didn't want to listen and believe that Wigans success in 2010 was solely down to some mythical defensive freedom that the RL have allowed Wigan and no other clubs!

You honestly couldn't make it up!

PS

I predicted some 12/18months ago that if Wigan did start to win things this board would go into Meltdown!
I must be Nostradamus!
It is beyond some people to get them to register that when the ord "Wigan" is mentioned their brains go into some kind of warped state that loses all rationale!

For Saintsfan to claim that Wigan are Boring to watch and Saints are exciting while She has been bemoaning Potter and his Boring brand of Rugby on the Saints site for the last 18 months is bordering on Lunacy!
Sgt Wilko & Lionarmour 87 are going the same way as many before them.
But it's what a lot of us Wigan fans Who try and have decent Rugby discussions have become to realise is impossible.

JDRocket's the New favourite, He/She can't see the Hypocricy & Hatred for Wigan in every keystroke that comes from their fingers!

We admit that Leeds fans get it from Yorkshire clubs, Soem Saints fans and the odd Wiganner recently.We get it from Everywhere!
But were used to it, "WE ARE WIGAN" and it comes with the territory!

we are now going to be nice to the poor relations

Indeed.

Congrats of winning the SL Championship last season.... your first since the last Century.
