you have bought players under contract from other clubs, don't have to breach the cap, but the majority if not all other sl clubs aren't in a position to spend money like wire can and do.

Why people are picking Wigan I really don't know.

There fans live in the past. Salary cap breachers.

Wigan Rugby - The ultimate cheaters of Rugby League!

Your just better at hiding it.

Warrington play a sweet brand of rugby though and love him or hate him Briers is always quality to watch. Can't stand Tony Smith though, something has gone missing in that gene pool. His brother is the most open, accessable bloke ever and he can't even look anyone straight in the eye. Yeah, we've had fun and games at wilderspool and even at the Halliwell with regards to fan behaviour but Wigans fans lack originality these days. Have a look at their flags tonight, all rip-offs of Man U and Liverpool slogans, same with their chants. Then again spose that I had to add to their gay wigan wigan drone somehow.

Do I prefer Wigan to Warrington?

Only in the way that I'd rather kiss my granny than my dad.....does that put it into context for you?

Wigan for me as i have family there.

Wigan for me! I too used to hate them but only cos they used to tonk us all the time but at the same time they were an amazing team remember them having 13 players in the GB team once. They didn't go about things the right ways back then tho.

However now Wigan are a club all clubs should aspire to in terms of their youth development. Look around SL and NL clubs and I bet there are more players from the Wigan area than any other area. As much as we'd like to think Hull is the No.1 hotbed for producing rugby league players it isn't. IMO Wigan has consistenly produced quality players and will continue to do so.

Here in Hull we seem to have amateur youth teams who are up there with the best in the country yet when you look at the number of players who turn out to be SL regulars it isn't that many. Wigan seem to have a real knack of developing the potential in players.

IIRC, Leeds are the only team with no former Wigan players.

Isnt this more to do with the Fact that Hull and Wigan have off the field success with crowds, Youth development and good stadiums, but havent recently had much on the field success?

Ill never forget the Hull fan at the CC final in 2003 who said he would be shouting for Wigan, even though he is sat in the Saints end!

Unlikely but Wigan vs Hull GF would be quality

Wigan because Jimmys lad plays for them !!

Myself and a few other Wigan fans have pumped a hell of a lot of money into our flags and dont appreciate muppets like you slagging them off. Yes, some of them are similar to United and liverpool flags but everybody copies someone, give me a rugby league teams song that isn't copied of anyone??? Our flags are anything but "lacking in class" unlike those horrible bed sheets that wire took to odsal!!!

Because warrington have idiots like you following them

Plus I've never been threatened with a knife or had my bus windows bricked at wigan

Easy Tiger! It's just a flag

I have a hanky you can borrow if you need to wipe the froth from your mouth.
