Best games

Murrayfield - 2002, 2009

Bradford away - 2007

Leeds away - 2003, 2007

Saints at home - 2007

Leeds Grand final - 1998

There are loads really, they are the most exciting though.

Worst game

0-75 unfortunatly will never be forgotten unless we better it.

Best player

Farrell 0r Radlinski.

Best atmosphere - Saints away or at home anytime. Hull away 2007. The best has to be after the game this year against saints at murrayfield.

got to be World Club Challenge against Manly, circa 37,000 people packed into Central Park, night time match with an unbelievable atmosphere. When Wigan walked out of the tunnel the whole place erupted, absolutely fantastic, no wembley or grand final appearance has ever come close to the atmosphere created that night

My three favourite games have to be;
My first ever game. Ellery Hanley's home debut for us.
Wembley 1989.

First game against Catalans.

Best Game....difficult this as there has been so many, but I have to go for the first time I saw us win the Challenge Cup, Wembley 1965, v Hunslet, plus we were sat in the corner where Trevor Lake dove over for his famous try.

Worst Game....Easter Monday, 17th April 2006, days before Noble joined us, we lost at home to Harlequins 18-30, especially the first 40 mins, probably the worst performance from a Wigan team I have ever seen, and that includes the season we were relegated.

Best Player....Boston, its nearly impossible to explain to people how good Billy was if you never saw him play, but we have been blessed over the years with outstanding talent, Ashurst, Kenny, Hanley, how am I supposed to split those !!!

Best Atmosphere....I'll go for Wembley 1985, even though we had been to Wembley the previous year we probably didn't expect a win against an outstanding Widnes team, 85' was different, we had Kenny and Ferguson, I've been to Wembley dozens of times but never known it so packed tight, the game was brilliant, but those closing 10 minutes were stomach churning, I , like many more, thought we were going to throw it away, but the final whistle was a mighty relief, 20 years of wait over, the Cup had come home !!!

Only 16 so,

All time greatest game you have witnessed watching Wigan?
Bulls 30-31 Wigan

The worse game you have ever witnessed watching Wigan?
Catalans Semi final 2007
Wakey away 2006 10-8

All time greatest player you have witnessed wearing the Cherry and White?
Andy Farrell, Kris Radlinski

The best crowd atmosphere you have heard?
Hull Away Playoff 2007
All back end of 2006 games, the way we got behind the team in them troubled times was amazing.

Best Game Brisbane 94 was probably our finest hour, but for a game I've attended - Murrayfield 2002.

Worst Game Castleford Away in 2006. Getting snotted by the worst team in the league, picking up a load of injuries and sinking to rock bottom. Just an awful feeling of helplessness watching the team tumbling towards relegation and not seeing any positives on the horizon. Truly horrible feeling.

Best Player Ellery, but Edwards a close 2nd.

Best Atmosphere Good Friday 1993, the 8-8 draw against Stains with 30,000 packed into CP. Surprised the roof didn't come off that day. Hull in the playoffs in 2007 too, just for sheer non-stop noise and a huge following.

BEST GAME- For Excitement and emotion it as to be Bradford 07 play off. best team performance as got to be Brisbane

WORST GAME-Never felt as low as i did when we lost 75-0

BEST TRY-Carney's second against leeds in the play offs

BEST ATMOS- i never heard the wigan fans louder than when we came back from 20-0 down at saints in 02

BEST PLAYER- My hero was Dean Bell.but the greatest player i've ever seen was Hanley but for passion Edwards and Farrell were the men.

Certainly not a Wigan fan and never will be, but I do have a great Wigan moment. I was one of the 37000 that packed into Central Park for the 1987 World Club Challenge against Manly. The ground was full of fans from all over the place just willing Wigan to win. It was an amazing atmosthere that anyone who was there will never forget and probably never ever experience again. Central Park was always one of my favourite grounds.

Thats what the WCC should be like now! Everyone supporting the team representing the nation! Massive crowds, huge atmosphere. We should aim big with it, more like a champions league final.

BEST GAME- Manly '87, Brisbane '94,

WORST GAME- Never felt lower than I did after losing at home to Castleford in 2006. Six points adrift at the bottom, I was convinced we were going down.

"We came second, we paid for a poor first half. Our backs are against the wall and we need to roll our sleeves up for the whole 80 minutes", commented Brian Noble in his usual cliched fashion.


BEST TRY- My favourite try was Henderson Gill's at Wembley, if for no other than the firkin big grin all over his face after it.

BEST ATMOS- Manly '87 like nothing I've experience in RL before or since.

BEST PLAYER- Ellery Hanley far and away the best I've seen in a Wigan shirt, though Dean Bell & Frano Botica were my favourites.

I'd blocked that one out. It was bl00dy freezing & you're right, we were utterly clueless. I remember talking to my Grandad after the match & saying it was the first time I'd ever been bored at a match. Happened a few times since, mind. That said, the first 15 mins of Michael Dobson's first home game for us was a great moment, simply because he put 4 or 5 decent kicks in & you sensed belief starting to come back into the crowd.

I just remember coming home from that match wondering why I'd wasted my time sitting in the cold watching absolute dross. Tbh it was that bad I'd forgot about Dobson.

Wasnt dobsons home debut against Saints? I could have sworn that was quite a warm evening, and it wasn't a bad performance considering what we had had to put up with earlier in the season.

I once met Pat Sharp at game against Bradford, i had my picture taken and arm signed by him and that is probably the best at the min.
