23 - 20 - 4
Warrington led 16-2 in Saturday's Grand Final, but their joy was short-lived as Wigan roared back to win the Super League title and extend the Wire's 58-year wait to be champions:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10174.png |

£4 a burger, i wished i'd found that - all i could find was cheese on toast £3, meet on a roll £6. I starvin when i got home. Glad i managed to smuggle a few cans in my bag, saved a few quid. Overall still like the magic weekend, have no comaprision to cardif - as never went. This year prob not as good as last,only cause it was colder. Found the fans zone this year which was really good. Nice to mix with all the fans chatted to a few bradford fans who werent too impressed with their team, the salford fans were good. One guy had spent £500 on the weekend, said it was their wembley.

Murrayfield again next year please rfl!!'"
£4 a beer would be manageable but £4 for a carling is taking the p**s. Don't know what pubs you drink in but most I go to a pint is between £2.30 and £2.80. I'll be there next year regardless of where it is but don't think it's unreasonable to complain about unaffordable food and drink.
My general impression of Edinburgh is that it isn't rugby drinker friendly hence why we only went for the day this year and not the weekend. If they don't want us there perhaps we should oblige. |

And the answer to any question like that is usually Leith.

Conroy - Being a Latics fan i'm already immune to watching sh*te.
Sally Cinnamon - Treat the Saints forum as you would if you met a girl from St Helens. Best policy would be to avoid altogether but if you absolutely can't resist temptation then take every possible precaution.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_36121.jpg |

You only want to go back because you can have another hoop-hugging session like you did today. Can't help but think that JB, Rogue Senior and his Tiny Tim are rubbing off on you |

Has the extra tax on strong pear cider come out yet?
I remember been totally outraged when I found out that Alistair Darling included that in his budget. My pear ciders on Saturday night at the pub where £3.50 and up.
Absolute rip off!
Mind you if buying pear cider keeps the bars open then I’m fully up for it. Still I think Mr Darling has got it very wrong about us cider drinkers.
It’s the Alcopop kids he ough to be targeting. |

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

| You need to do your research. On the North West corner there was a pass out gate that led to the Ice Rink bar.
Much, much cheaper in there (£2.80 a pint) and less than a minute from the stadium.
Best kept secret for the two days. |
