39110_1363272058.jpg 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

| Why do these threads always descend into stupid, tit for tat, name calling. I'm guessing that we're all adults? if so, can't we just look forward to what will be as always, a great game of rugby league between the two best sides in the comp. Wigan's support has been great the past few years. I think it started during the relegation threat season? and has grown since then. The group name could be better, but the concept is fantastic. Ours is decent in terms of numbers away from home, but lack any variety in terms of song choice. Looking forward to a great game, which probably won't mean much come the end of the season. Wigan V Warrington. It doesn't get much better.

I agree. Must admit can't wait for this one!!
Ticket sales are going great with the South Stand selling out a few days ago, and with only 1900 left in the East and only 1600 left in the West, I expect a lot of these to be snapped up quickly next week.
How are North Stand sales going?
Fully expect to smash last years gate of 21,056.

| We should now be looking to a near sell-out every year against Wire and Saints (guess it will depend this year on whether anything is riding on it with it ridiculously being the last round this year). If we continue to do a "Big One" as well (Hull FC in August this year maybe?) then we could easily be looking at 3 20k+ attendances every year.

I dont think the big one will be against Hull FC as on the season ticket page on the club website its advertising that have big games against saints,wire both hull clubs and the big one4 but no mention of a team so could be widnes or bradford.

Widnes could be a decent shout actually, I didn't think the club would do it then though with it being moved to the Monday. They could go down the whole REVENGE route for marketing!

Not sure pal. I think we will bring around 4k to be honest, we will probably claim 6k though. No doubt that both forums will descend into a pit of bitterness, nastiness and stupidity for a week or so after.

I hope not, but the recent track record in that respect doesn't fill me with optimism.

| I came off the ground yesterday, thinking that if we defend like that, Warrington will run riot. But I guess they will probably have the same sort of feeling after conceding 30 points at home as well.
I expect it to be a lot tighter on Friday. Too scared to offer a prediction. Can't wait for the first Friday night game of the season. Should be a classic.
