Wind your neck in.

In Rugby League Wigan and Leeds have traditionally been the big two of RL. This is generally accepted by most RL fans. Hull FC are another fairly big club and Saints are on the fringes of being one. These clubs are always considered big clubs no matter how good or bad they are and generally are the clubs the other teams want to beat

Warrington have always been a fairly average club in every way shape and form and although they may have had the odd bouts of success it certainly has never been sustained. They are much like Bradford, Wakefield, Huddersfield in that respect and I would say they are in the next tier of clubs. There are times though when they havent even been this. These kinds of clubs may have had their moments but they have been fleeting and if you want to harp on about a league win 60 years ago that is up to you. At the moment Warrington are on a periodic high due to spending big, a new stadium and a good team, much the same sort of thing as has happened in the past, with the likes of Bradford most recently. If Warrington can continue in the same vein as they have been doing the last few years then maybe things will change and they can cement themselves as being a big club. I actually think its great for Rugby League that Warrington are on the up, getting decent crowds in a decent stadium but it is a recent phenomenon and is certainly something that hasnt always happened throughout RL history.

It seems that you're offended when corrected. Your original post stated '[iHistorically they have always been a rather small club with no real fanbase as such. However now after a few decent seasons when they are finally begining to attract some decent crowds they now want to mix it with the big clubs. Its quite sweet really.'
[/i Now you've upgraded Wire to a 'fairly average club'. Your updated view also now seems to be that only Leeds and Wigan are 'big clubs'. Interesting. If you really think that '[iits great for Rugby League that Warrington are on the up'[/i why the stupid patronising comment about being '[isweet[/i'?

Fun to see that you think that Saints are only '[ion the fringes of[/i' being a big club! They've won a lot more than Wigan in the last ten years, but I guess if you want to [i'harp on about league wins 20 years ago that is up to you[/i'.

There's not a lot of point listing trophies won by all the clubs you mention ( anyone can look them up on Wikipedia ), but, given that you single out Hull FC over Wire, please note that the former have six championships, three challenge cups and one John Player/Regal trophy. Wire have three championships, seven challenge cups and four John Player/Regal trophies. I don’t see much evidence there that Hull are a ‘bigger club’ than Wire.

Looks like you're the one whose neck is stretched.

its a farce and if Wire do win the league, it should take some gloss off it at least.

Warrington fans in obsessed with Wigan shocker icon_eek.gif It is really getting quite boring and they plainly havent got a clue about RL and even their own club. They feel so insecure about their club that they need to keep trying to justify how big a club Warrington are, on a Wigan forum, when quite frankly most Wigan fans couldnt care less. As I said Saints are our big derby game, Warrington fans should be concentrating on teams on their own level and of a similar standing like Widnes.

Well yes both us and Widnes beat you this season.

Talking of your big derby game you should be concentrating on making sure you don't bottle it in the playoffs this year, to lose not once but twice to the Saints was pretty shocking when you had the double to play for.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, at times on here it's as if Wire fans are trying to prove themselves the stupidest fans in RL. They seem to be succeeding! icon_lol.gif

Quote: Famous "Warrington fans in obsessed with Wigan shocker
Your fondness for sweeping generalities reveals your paucity of thought. It's fine that you couldn't care less, but if you make preposterous assertions that you hastily half-withdraw then you've only yourself to blame if you provoke Wire fans into naturally defending their club.
