Quote Owdpopularsider="Owdpopularsider"The problem with the new tics fans is that WAFC dont have a rivals to fall-out with, nobody takes them seriously, they have no history of rivalry with any club. Utd-City, Bolton-Utd, Liv-Everton, Preston-Blackpool, Burnley-Blackburn, Oldham-Rochdale, Bury-Bolton, so they spew their hatred towards their home town team in a different sport, DUH!'"
Funny, it even states on a well known on-line thesaurus, "Curiously for an English football club, Wigan Athletic's chief rivalry is not with another football club, but with the local rugby league club, Wigan Warriors. It is a long-standing rivalry and in fact predates the club's formation, as previous football teams within the town are said to have struggled to attract support due to the success of the local rugby league club."
Do they have one game to look forward to at all? There must be at least half a dozen games in our regular rounds alone were i really want the week to pass quick beause i'm looking forward to the next game so much. I don't think they'll ever wake up to that weird derby day feeling
