Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

Burn him! Thou shalt not insult the mighty gorilla!
Max.... I don't quite get why Max should be a centurion when Leigh Centurions have a centurion! Maybe Leigh's version is an Optio? |

Personally, I think we should have two mascots.
A Lion called Ancient & a Lion called Loyal.
It would work with kids and they are a traditional part of the crest.
I thought the bullman/bullboy combo was fantastic at it's peak. We could easily pull it off.

I've got a coup that might be in Mr Leneghans price range! It would be a fantastic signing that would bring in two world class people from another sport, they have a good grounding in another club and I'm sure would bring alot to the Warriors.
Our new signings for 2010...

Dan Sarginson: "This is a fantastic opportunity for me to join the biggest name in the competition" 18/10/2013
Tony Clubb: "This is a new exciting chapter of my life signing for Wigan and I couldn't be happier" 18/10/2013
Romain Navarrete: “I’m very happy to have signed for Wigan Warriors. As soon I knew that Wigan were interested, they were the only team that I wanted to sign for. To me, Wigan is the biggest Club in Rugby League and it will be an honour to pull on the famous Cherry-and-White jersey next year. I look forward to working with Shaun Wane and the players at Wigan.”:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10172.jpg |

The table as it stands today, according to the BBC:
1 Leeds
2 St Helens
3 Hull KR
4 Huddersfield
5 Wigan
6 Wakefield
7 Catalans Dragons
8 Castleford
9 Warrington
10 Harlequins RL
11 Bradford
12 Hull
13 Salford
14 Celtic Crusaders
Apart from Catalans and Celtic, no mention of any 'tags'.
Some don't even have any now, so why do we need to keep ours?

| Quote: RL13 "Do you like being called the Warriors? What does it mean? What is in a name?'"
Just to clear it up (in case anyone isnt sure), the name was taken from our Jnr RL side 'Wigan Warriors', after most other SL clubs adopted a catchy name. First started by Keighley Cougars in '95 (i think)?
As our club was pretty much founded by Wigan anyway, we had no choice other than to give the name away, and we became Leyland Warriors instead.
Personally, i dont mind it........But prefer Wigan RLFC for sure.  |

Classic Idea......Drop the Tag and two lion mascots!! Be great if the club did this for 2010. RE: the Wigan V Latics thing and what we're recognised as I think 90% of wigan (including the pathetics) refer to Wigan RL as Wigan and Wigan Athletic as Latics....always have and will do....we just need to ensure the national media does not start trying to change this with their pro soccer anti league stance. For me we should go back to simply Wigan RL. The lions mascots idea is a cracker |

We have about 12 mascots already what with the Kangaroo, Koala, Pigs etc parading around before the match.
And Lions are old-school. Even Max is better than 2 Lions.
