So 8 pages and still no idea if there is any truth in this??
Dan Sarginson: "This is a fantastic opportunity for me to join the biggest name in the competition" 18/10/2013
Tony Clubb: "This is a new exciting chapter of my life signing for Wigan and I couldn't be happier" 18/10/2013
Romain Navarrete: “I’m very happy to have signed for Wigan Warriors. As soon I knew that Wigan were interested, they were the only team that I wanted to sign for. To me, Wigan is the biggest Club in Rugby League and it will be an honour to pull on the famous Cherry-and-White jersey next year. I look forward to working with Shaun Wane and the players at Wigan.”

Different caps should be introduced for different sections of each team, for example..
A cap for the players under 21. A cap for UK players A cap for overseas players A cap for RU players coming over to entice RU players
Keep things equal from RL to RL team in the SL help compete with RU in this country and others..

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

They werent last Sunday, I was there, And they reacted terribly to the Good Hiding they got!
Maybe it was the Leeds UTD element? Maybe it was because they didn't like getting a good hiding on a World Wide Stage but there were fights galore (I saw 4!).
My Eldest was verbally abused in the Toilets at half time (He's 10 and the bloke was mid/late 30's) by a Leeds Fan because he was wearing his Manly Shirt!
He was with his older cousin who gave this bloke some stick back though!
They are certainly Fast becoming the Paralell of the Saints fans and before anyone else says it some of the Wigan fans of the 80's & 90's!

Unfortunately, when a team 'becomes good', their crowd increases because lots of hangers-on want to bask in the spotlight. While on one hand this is a good thing because it means an attenance improvement, on the other it also means there'll be a lot more dick'eds knocking around. Wigan certainly had this problem in the 90s, Saints have had it on and off (but only in cup finals, LOL), and Leeds have it now. In fact, Leeds are the best example I've seen of it in RL. During their last two visits to the JJB, I've seen incidents of sporadic violence, which is something I never used to associate with their club, and all caused by brainless tw0ts who looked like they'd walked straight out of The Football Factory.
