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 - FIOS:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_39110.jpg



I know people talk about 'wide to west' as one of the greatest last minute wins and rightly so... but we have had some quality games which we have stolen right at the death.

Which one is your favourite and why?

For me it is between 3 games.

Bradford at home 2000 - Kris Radlinski scored as the last second of the game went by. I was only 10. That game seriously got me into supporting Wigan. The atmosphere leaving the ground was special with everyone beeping their horns.

Bradford away 2007 - Maybe not won in the last few seconds but the comeback which went before hand made Pats dropgoal even more special. I have never seen Wigan fans celebrate like that. Barrett was sensational.

Saints at home 2011 - Last gasp try from Farrell. Loved it. What an atmosphere at the end!

St Helens, Good Friday this year is the only game where I have seen us win a game at the death and for me is probably the best. The two games mentioned against Bradford I wasn't able to get to and the one against Bradford in 2007, is one I regret not going to.

I enjoyed the 22-22 draw at Headingley this season and also the win in 2007 I think where Bailey scored in the last minute!

The good Friday game this season, and the Leeds game with the Bailey try just because no one had given us a chance .

Still that Bradford away game for me. Knew that was my choice before I even opened the thread and saw you had put it. I agree yeah maybe not last minute but come on sensational game and as good as.

21 years on, the thought of Ellery Hanley putting Andy Goodway in under the posts in the last minute of the Challenge cup semi final at Old Trafford still brings a smile to my face.
Against St Helens as well. Sublime.

Have you also forgot the week after at the KC stadium when Barrett basically beat Hull single handedly.

75-0 Gets you Nothing. 27-0 Gets you a trophy. 18-10 Gets you eternal bragging rights!:simpsons/PDT13.gif



Four games stick out for me:

1. Saints Good Friday. 'Nuff said.

2. Phil Ford's last gasp effort against Hull KR at CP in the 80s. A pivotal moment in our push for the title against our nearest challengers.

3. Bradford in the playoffs - the comeback to end all comebacks!

4. Leeds last season. 8 ponts behind with a minute to go and yet we get a draw!

The challenge cup semi final in (I think) 1990 or 1992 at Old Trafford against Saints.

The game was locked at 8-8, when Hanley did one of his weaving runs, and handed the ball to Andy Goodway, who went in under the posts.

As per usual, the Saints fans swore blind the pass was forward (it wasn't) and still do to this day, which makes the win even more sweet.

I said 2000 more because we hadn't been at the then "JJB stadium" very long and you felt it needed a game like that to kick start it, it felt a bit like home after that game, its the game that really stands out as a "classic" in my mind.
