I go to the final every year for the weekend and this will be my 39th year on the run (40 finals in total). During all those visits I have seen very little trouble ( maybe the odd "fuelled" up supporter who pushes his views too far onto other people) and the great thing is that in general most fans can mix and have a laugh and a joke with each other and discuss rugby.
It's obviously better when your own team is playing but when they aren't you can at least take in the proceedings without those butterflies churning over in the stomach.
Although I am not a great fan of either team at present ( understatement) I will still have an enjoyable weekend and I will be hoping that Wire win.
I now await the indignant replies from the Leeds fans and the disbelief from fellow Wigan fans.

Exactly. At the end of the day, some people are morons. Unfortunately some of those morons choose to support the same rugby team as me. That isn't my fault or the fault of any other Leeds fan but him/her.

*Spits out drink* I'm sorry... what?!?

So Leeds are the latent homosexual....?

Les Dyl used to star for them in the 70's.......

No mate these were Huddersfield fans

I've gone every year for over 25 years, irrespective of who's playing.
I've only ever supported 3 teams at the final,
1) Wigan
2) Whoever's playing Saints
3) The underdogs.
Wigan not playing actually takes the pressure off, and allows the long weekend to be enjoyed without any butterfiles and worries . The banter with other fans is always great, especially in the pub(s) after the match. (The hostelries we visit tend not to be on the Radar of the gobby, brain-dead element )
