Whats with all this warrior malarkey, seems to be everywhere at the minute - the calendar, t-shirts, posters, the season ticket etc. I think most wigan fans want to ditch this tacky crap. We are Wigan R.L.F.C not the warriors. Merry Christmas x

I have to disagree. If they get rid of Warrior, I'll have to change my name 100% WIGANRLFC doesn't quite have the same ring to it!

Also 'most Wigan fans want to ditch this tacky crap'

Lenegan let fans vote on it when he took over, and obviously the majority voted to keep Warriors.

In all seriousness I want to keep the Warriors tag, I just don't think going back to Wigan RLFC is going to be any better.

Warriors doesn't IMO sound gimmicky or tacky.

IL did ask for a show of hands on the Warriors name at the very first fans forum and it was a 50:50 split, which was a big surprise for a lot of the older fans.
It would appear many of the younger fans like the "Warrior"

In all seriousness, the concentration on 'Warrior' seems to be a considered effort to attract more young support. It's often been said that the core support average age is pretty high in Super League terms (and a lot higher than Latics, by the way).

I'm sure that's behind the thinking in releasing the new designs of shirts. Supposedly to appeal to a younger audience. Time will tell if it's successful.

im an older fan (as you know)...5 yrs ago i would have said change back yo wigan rl
now i call them warriors...........the things stuck with me, so must stick with younger fans,..............plus..........its a brand name thing, merchandise wise.........which in the long run is for the good of the club if it brings in revenue and attracts young fans.

and yes...i do join in the silly chant.....which ends in WARRIORS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Could someone remind me what that chant was that we used last season at every single away game and have done for a number of years, What was it "Bring on the RLFC" was it or was it "Bring on the Wigan", Obviously that chant will of course change to "Bring on the Champions" as opposed to "Bring on the Warriors" but like it or hate it the fact is until IL declares otherwise we shall remain as Wigan Warriors.

I would prefer to be called Wigan R.L.F.C, but in all fairness the Warriors tag is not that bad!
I mean it could be worse we could we could have a crap name for example (Rhinos) stuck at the end of our name and have it on our badge as well!

At least our badge just has the ribbon at the bottom that says Wigan Warriors.
