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

I would rather see us improve to be a top team again and then pack the JJB out every week.

 Nice try. For the record our LOWEST league crowd of the year so far is 11670.
That crowd last night was our first sub 10000 crowd against a Super League side since 2005. |

LSV would be a fortress for the Warriors. ![]()
Have you though about playing at Northwich Victoria or Macclesfield or Altringham????
All those grounds hold around the 3k mark which should comfortably hold your home support and then you could moves games a gianst a Big club like Wigan or Saints or Wire to LSV yourselves when we bring more fans than the Home Supporters do!

Don't let the facts get in the way of a poor attempt at trolling.
FWIW i had to think long and hard about turning up myself last night as, lets face it, even though we are very very average at the moment salford are still easy beats so there is no real excitement there really.

Nice idea. On that basis Salford could save a bundle by playing at Folly Lane.

Didn't Latics get less on for the Utd game than we did for the Saints game? As for our home crowds...im sure we're averaging around the 13-14k mark this year? IE 3 or 4 times what Salford get on every week.

4,100 was pretty good for a Tuesday night against Notts County |

not really, when you consider football is the biggest sport in Wigan.
it was advertised to death, first cup game of the season, very reasonable ticket prices and Latics get close to 20k every week (according to some fans).
what do you think about bruce bailing on you a second time? |

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery.......
I will look to the moment, and miraculously, the future will take care of itself.
Radio 5 Live, Sat, April 14th, 2007,...Dave Whelan, "In Wigan, rugby will always be king"
'I was certain, positive, convinced, and yet..........unsure'
'It's only rock 'n' roll, but I like it'

Tuesday night games are dodgy as many people won't let their kids go, (not sure if schools were open that week)
Didn't want Bruce in the first place because he'd sh*t on us once. (granted i'm glad we got him now playing wise) If he goes i'm not 100% sure who i'd take tbh |
