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'm old enough to remember Joe Davies!! and when Steve Davis was sweeping all before him Mr Hendry was still at school!
I'm pointing out to you why people are getting behind you. The perennial love for the underdog! And like it or not Wigan over the last few years haven't been much good!!
No not particularly quiet on our board........previously unseen photos from our recent Wembley triumph being posted today!! |

[quote="Mark"]Great game of rugby league. Fantastic atmosphere, Wigan were breathtaking and dominant in all areas for the first 25 minutes, coupled with us making alot of dumb mistakes,then fortunately they brought McIlorum on which helped us back into the game. I thought some of the tries we scored to get us within two we're out of this world stuff. Towards the end we had to force it a little and we had a few things go wrong, i.e Monas kick on the first for King and Solomona going off who was causing havoc. Wigan were clinical in their eventual execution of us. Proud of Wire today and gave us a little glimpse to the future. Silverwood was awful as per, but I expect no less. Tomkins is a world class player and by far the best english player in SL. Wigan are a champion side and would be a worthy winner of taking our title as challenge cup. Good luck over the next month and a bit.[/quote]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_23997.jpg |

Too be honest. Its great to get the good will, but i loved when everybody hated us... Probably says more about me....  What Wigan did when they were succesful was to drag RL's sorry ass into the 20th century, get the rest of you to wake up, and raised the profile of RL in the perception of the general public and the media. Any other club could have done what Wigan did, but did'nt. You should all be thanking us, not hateing us... But please don't stop |

perhaps he will remind us how good his team have been over the last few years.... But methinks a selective memory may be in operation...  |

Just have a little pop on the Wire forum for a few seconds and have a look how many threads there are about Wigan, they do alot of obsessing, crying and talking about a team thats not been very good for a long time!

By Wigans standards I would say not!
Had it been the 1980's you'd have won it for the last 3 years! What I was trying to say is that if that were the case now you would find it very difficult to gather neutral support! |

We don't live in the 80's my friend... We are concerned about now... Not what other see as a "Wigan standard"... thats a stupid comment... And as i said, you are using a selective memory.....And on your board items No 5,6 and 7 are about Wigan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!... You lot need therapy |

Are we still the biggest name in rugby league? YES
Over the last few years we have had 4 shots at a final and lost all 4 and i really hope we dont make it 5 this is our best shot at a gf and might be wrong but i think we have a 100% record against saints in the playoffs so that might get into there heads |

Where did I take a swipe?
I was trying to point out that other clubs fans will get behind you against Saints because recently they've been massively successful and Wigan haven't!
For what its worth I hope you win mainly because I've got a tenner on you!!
And for what its worth I'd support you in the final regardless of me tenner because I'd always cheer Lancs over Yorks or England over France!! |

We only won the league once in total during the 80's
But don't let the facts get in the way of your gormless rant |

Agreed!..............That keeps a lot of jealous neutrals at bay!! But whilst you're currently slightly off the pace a little success wont be begrudged at least by the moderates amongst us!!
But don't start making a habit of it again! |
