| Im definitely up for a mini brigantes! Was gutted when I realised the final clashed with the festival. Especially as I went to the majority of the cup games. I remember last year, there being a fair few watching the leeds wire game, so hopefully there will be plenty watching again. I'll have my shirt and scarf!  |

I can accept failure, but I can't accept not trying.

| Someone in I think it's Grove Lane, Ince has got a Wigan flag on a pole in his front garden, looks great.  |

Why would you go to Leeds fest over Wembly this year? Ignoring it's Wembly why would you choose to go to Leeds fest this year; the line up is terrible this year.

When Maurice sold me to Leeds something changed, it just not the same, the passion inside me just wasn’t the same as running out at Central park for my hometown club.
We need a change of culture here; we don’t want to be just happy with playing ok on Saturday at St Helens.
Ill make sure that from now on things will change, that players will be under pressure and will train a lot harder than they have before.

[quote="Rob Wire":qtnftxzx]WIGAN ARE BACK to what exactly ? Oh i see what you mean, back to beating weakened teams. How many key players did we have missing in the cup ?
Just remind us again how many key players did Saints have missing in last years grand final ?
When did you actually last beat a strong Saints or Warringtom team ? Don't include beating us last year at the HJ, we had a lead of around 14pts and were cruising then we lost both Briers and Monaghan, another example of Wigan capitalising on other teams misfortunes.[/quote:qtnftxzx]

very anti-social, blocking the view for all those behind them

Its not like we knew wigan were going to wembley was it? We didnt buy the tickets on the same day as Wembley tickets were released. You buy the festival tickets in March, way in advance, even Vodafone had an offer to get your tickets early last december. If you enjoy the festivals are you really gonna hold back on getting a ticket 9 months prior 'incase' Wigan get to the final? No, you get it whilst you can.
Plus, some people cant just jump ship, Im taking people there, already got my ticket, all my tents and equipment ready to go. If I could I would, but plans have been made. In return, I will be sure to let every single one of the 70,000 people there that Wigan are in the final |

Completely agree with the above. There is no way i would make a profit on the ticket, plus a i love the line up, and there's at least 20 of us going. We will have to all meet up on the saturday.
And the big screen isn't situated near the main stage, it's nearer the entrance i think.

I had the same dilemma last year but we went out early so ther was no stress. Didnt bother buying a Leeds fest ticket this year - had a feeling we'd get to wembley! I was chatting with quite a few wigan fans last year, didnt know they should the cup final though!

I went last year and will be going this year so there will be a few of us cheering them on.
Last year the big screen showing the cup final was just outside the arena entrance. About a 5 minute walk from the NME Stage.
A good atmosphere brewed up between the Leeds locals and the Wire fans last years, but be prepared to get bottled if you are planning to chant haha

(They're not football pitches by the way, its just a field with a bunch of drunkards kicking a ball around) |
