We should do it then.
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

Season Ticket Holders get free entry. Probably be up there myself to see how Mathers is getting on.
The Reserve league actually started the weekend just gone but Wigan had a Bye Week to start. The big shock being Leeds Reserves 40-48 defeat at home to Celtic Crusaders!
Don't be too fooled by that shock result. Celtic Crusaders had Paul Ballard, Ste Tyrer (who scored 8 tries and kicked four goals) Aled James and David Tangata-Toa in that side.
But in fairness they did have 13 welsh born players in that side so the result should be applauded but should come as no suprise given the amount of experience Celtic Crusaders played with.

Not quite correct.
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

And Mark Lennon, who I would expect was highly influential.

It would be great to play it before home games. Im sure that there would be more people coming earlier to watch them than people who would go to Orrell on a Saturday. Would be a good experiance for the players aswell.
Not gunna happen though
RICHARDS IS SUPERMAN!!!!
