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 |

| Quote: sergeant pepper "And a big thanks to big fat Gary Schofield for all the motivation this week.
Or two corkers from the king of put downs Mr Maurice Lindsey.
In reference to Latics;
" They’re a very successful, thrivinglittle club andthey’ve done almost everything right, they’ve signeda lot ofquality juniors, but they’ve chosen the backyardof rugby league to do it in.”
Or when discussing Dire;
Wonderful little club but they just aren't Wigan.'"

Something along the lines of "I'm the 'effin full back!"
Sam to Matty Smith on Good Friday, after they managed to screw up a high ball in the in goal area.

If you don't bother to go to the game when you live in the locality then you are not really a fan and therefore your views are invalid. It's simple.:icons39ad_files/4821-1859san_c-msnicons.jpg |

I have visions of some guy locked in a shed or garage by his son with only a printing machine for company.

Anyone know how the conversation went when John Major was being shown round the changing rooms at Wembley and was greeted by Billy McGinty wearing only a strategically placed pineapple ring?

The same Maurice Lindsay who then said upon joining the board of that thriving little club
"I'm delighted that we are strengthening ties between both great clubs. We are gaining recognition around the world as a true sporting town and this fusing further underlines that claim, to be asked to join the Wigan Athletic board is an honour."
I wonder whether this was due to Wigan RL being pretty in 2006 whilst Wigan Athletic were becoming well known all over the World as a Premier League club? |

From memory it went something like
BM bursts into camera
"Pineapple John" - BM pointing to the offending item
"That's the last time I eat pineapple" - JM |

Brian Carney's classic line live on sky after a Leeds play off game (I think)

Not really a quote as such, but a motivational statement from Martin Offiah to the 2010 Wigan Grand Final team was fantastic. Even as a Saints fan I was applauding that when I saw it after the game. I've got the picture somewhere at home, I'm pretty sure someone on here has it in their sig aswell.
