[quote="Doogal McQuire.":2tzw9wtk]The perception with everyone from outside the Rugby League Community is that Wigan are still the biggest name in British rugby league.
It is a hard pill to swallow but unbelievably true.[/quote:2tzw9wtk]:2538.png |

or have eight flags with the dates on and the captain of that game hoisting the trophy.

It's Rogues Gallery's sig. |

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

| Quote: Odemwingie "Personally I don't think having bad language on the flags is a good idea really. And I think its better to focus on our team rather than saints. Mentioning the 75-0 is a poor idea IMO.'"
And remember that 1989 wasn't the first time we 'nilled' a team at Wembley, we beat Barrow 10-0 in 1951, oddly 3 finals in a row, 1949,1950 and 1951 the losing team all got 'nilled'. |

Personally I just hope we are not going to end up with a load of flags from that one late 80s early 90s era. I know its the era of a lot of people on here but our great history is much, much, much more than that.

A Boston one is the next on my list. |

I keep myself out of trouble at the top of the West. Being surrounded by empty seats gives me happy memories of watching Leyth.

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 personally think we need some for individual games. 1989 cup final, Manly WCC....
A Jim Sullivan one would be great as well! |

I am going to suggest we go with dawn's proposal of 1 x from each era?
I suggested a "Edwards/Hanley/Gregory" combo for the 80's and I have already had 3 x offers of donations.
I guess we could do one for the 90's - Robinson-Bell-Offiah-Tuigamala-Betts-Platt-Dermott-Skerrett-Hampson (God I could go on forever  ) |

| Quote: twosevenzero "Great idea, IMO if we are using those 3 for the 80's then Dean Bell is a must for the 90's, his contribution as a captain and leader is beyond doubt. If it is decided to go ahead with this idea it may have to go to a vote as too who would be represented for this era, or Chris will have to decide !! ............good luck Chris !!!!!!! ![]()
I for one would like to see Graeme West included, he was one of the main guys in our re-emergence from the dark years to guiding us to the 'Grand Slam' - World Club Challenge, league Championship, Challenge Cup, Regal Trophy & Premiership
