I hope you're not glossing over the majesty of the Carnegie Nines...

Damn beat me to it!

My deepest apologies. Can I count Bensons for beds trophy?

Only if we've won it.

Locker cups?

Well thought out. The amount of painstaking effort you have put into this post, has won me over.

Nah it's before 1996 and as any Saints fan will tell you RL didn't start until then.

I think you'll find most Wigan fans will never see Warrington as 'their' game. The hatred is obvious, the constant attempts to paint us as violent hooligans, (yet every wire fan i know personally are lovely people) is tiresome and that opinion is only shared with Hull FC fans (pot/kettle).

The fact is, there probably is more trouble between the clubs BUT that's probably down to numbers , get enough people with differing opinions add beer and you'll get the occasional nobber. I find it funny that the majority of clubs love our fans, most fans favourite away day is at Warrington

I went to Wigan for a night out and saw loads of fights, does that mean every wiganer who goes on a might out is a violent moron?

I personally think Wigan fans on game day are usually sarcastic and up for good banter which i all i want from an oppo speccy.

I love the Wigan games and for me it is the biggest game of the season i would love it if it has the same significance as Saints and Leeds has had in the last few seasons.

I honestly think it will be for the next 2 or 3 years. Whilst playing Saints will always still be the one I look for as a derby, Wigan v Wire has more significance in terms of league position for this season.

What about the 7's tournament Kev Tamati used to do at Victoria park in Warrington? I remember Botica being in a Wigan team then and a very young, fast winger by the name of Darryl Williams.

At the moment your probably in a better position for this significance to be realised as both the teams you mentioned are in transition or in leeds case just going backwards !



The atmosphere last time we played at the DW was brilliant and long may that continue and not spill over into running battles as happened at wilderspool many moons ago.
