Is nickie kiss Josie Mourinho in disguise, already got a excuse in, if the pies , thugs sorry Wigan loose. Tell everyone how many players they are missing compared to wire, if they don't win they got a ready made excuse . Just looking forward to a a great game and atmosphere and show what a great sport it is after a bit of bad unjustified bad press. COYW

We have no excuse for not putting up a game but Wire literally don't have any for not getting the win tonight.

You can say we're getting them in early but all the biting back at a comment that we're missing 7 first choice players to your 2 seems as though you're trying to get them in first in case you suffer a defeat against a vastly under strength side. That adds a certain pressure but you're good enough to cope I'm sure.

As I've said on your board I think you'll get a 20 point win.

Here's to a good, competitive game.

"Biting back" you are funny.

I will have to leave you to your own devices as that's the way that you appear to like it. You seem to operate on the basis of writing, but, not reading which is an interesting form of correspondence...most self assuring.

One thing I hope that you are right of course is your predicted result and that it's a good competitive game.

"Wigan fans talk about Wigan team on Wigan forum board shocker!!"

How appropriate that we get quality like Rico on here on the 1st of April.

On the "Are Warrington any good" thread on this board the general Wigan opinion seems to be that Warrington have inferior strength in depth to Wigan at the moment.
I agree that Warrington are a little less under strength for tonights game than Wigan. I would say 5 or 6 players who would be in a start of season tony smith 17 are missing compared to Wigans 7 or 8. This is in no way a trolling message or the like but it will be interesting to see tonight how good your strength in depth is. Previously these type of games have opened my eyes to some excellent talent from your system!

"We won't win you will"

"You're having a laugh you'll definitely win not us"

So

Fake humility
Neither is confident
Don't want to look foolish if on losing side.

I remember the days when Wire fans came on here saying how they would smash you to pieces.
Wigan fans would reply how they were the greatest and they didn't stand a chance and they'd win by at least 20.

Personally...head above the parapet Wire should win, Wigan have some (not all) key strike men out, we, have squad players out and our main attacking threats (Sandow, Gidley, Russell) all there and ready to go.

But

Hull rested a lot and beat us, so no guarantee, sport is a funny business.

I just want first and foremost and tight, exciting, big hit, fast hands end to end game which could go anyway with 15 to go.

Then a Wire win obviously.

I love my sport, I want it to appeal to the masses, it needs to liven up, tighten up and buck up.

Nobody is a more positive person than i about Wigan winning, and i feel you have the advantage. Last i heard the bookies do too, as i'm no gambler i can't confirm this (just looked, you still are!!!) So don't come with your "Fake humility/Neither is confident/Don't want to look foolish if on losing side", claptrap...

Don't forget, it's always your year.... Don't know why we bother top turn up...

You're obviously no gambler mate. Wigan are 8/11 Warrington are 6/5 which means Wigan are clear favourites.

Ah well, glad i'm not a gambler... If we are, i'm surprised. I'm never bothered about being proved wrong, and i hope i am on this occasion too.

Bliko just made an interesting tweet, and he is normally accurate with these things.

Bilko @wiganrlfans
Looking at squads, Warrington can call upon every one of squad numbers 1 - 14.

Wigan missing 1, 3, 6, 8, 9, 10 & 14.

Interesting reading...

But that doesn't count because they're missing Gary Wheeler, Ryan Bailey, Toby King and Lee Briers.

The biggest issue Wire have from an injury point of view tonight is who's going to be fit enough from their reserves to carry the kicking tee?!
