| Quote Cruncher="Cruncher"I think it's possible to overstate the 'we respect each other' thing.
It was easy to dislike the Saints fans yesterday. There was a lot of chav activity by people in Saints colours after the game. I think the Bank Holiday brings out quite a lot of this - the same thing seems to have happened at Wakey v Cas.
Saints are on a roller coaster ride at present. The unexpected Grand Final appearance last year gave them a false impression of their team's current strength. They were in the process of losing key players and were being very poorly coached. But the reality of that only hit home this year, which was a big shock to them. After that, they had the Rush/Cunningham bounce - as it would be called in political terms (aided by a Warrington team for whom arrogance appears to have replaced self-belief, and a farcical, pantomine turn from Leeds) - and again, as in politics, it only lasted a brief time. Yesterday they finally met a top side who meant business and the inevitable happened.
It's perhaps understandable why so many of them were so 'nowt', as they say. But I'm not sure that really excuses scrotey behaviour. So yes, until the Saints fans in general man up, the answer to the question must be that, yes, the hatred is back.'"
Great post.

| Great day out, didnt see a spot of bother all day, not even a comment in our direction... the Saints v Wigan games are the most intense atmosphere inside the ground you will ever find certainly in this sport, ive been to several old firm games and over 20 Wigan Saints games and the feeling during the game is very much the same but unlike old firm games or trips to Warrington there is a mutual respect between Wigan and Saints which is superb.

What you need to accept, Wirelfyer, is that Wire have had a reputation for kn0bhed fans for a long time, and it isn't just Wiganers who say that. Instead of expressing outrage that people feel this way, perhaps you should look a little closer to home and try to understand why.
You're right - not all Wire fans are idiots, and there are plenty of fools at other clubs too. But you have an awful lot more than most. And this is really not something to be proud of. I used to work with a lad from Warrington, who'd spend all day boasting about the damage the Wire fans had done at such-and-such a ground, and how they'd chased opposition fans, or wrecked a pub, and so on. Not impressive.
