In the last 3 years we have had a few bigger games than this IMO and a few semi-finals where as this is Warrington's biggest game for years.

We are having our worst season in years while they have a new coach and are doing really well.

Finally who cares about who will have more fans there? It's a semi final, only the result matters. Talk about crowds for the magic weekend and our big events.






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

The fact is Wigans support is very fickle. Anyone can get a good crowd with free tickets. Even latics (well maybe not)

The allocation was the same. - We sold ours, our fans also bought from JJB and still we get another 700. This is on top of the extra 300 a couple of weeks ago. The allocation was 3800 each, therefore you can only sell 2700 less the ones we have bought from JJB. My guess from the posts on your board complaining about all the wire fans in your queue is a support of 2000 max.

And Wigan fans who think they will buy at the last minute or just turn up are deluded. Its all ticket ! that mean you need to buy one beforehand. If the RFL are giving them to us to sell then that means you wont have any to buy.

Tony Smith made a distinction yesterday between fans and supporters - Fans are the ones who turn up occassionally and are the first to boo and not turn up again apart from the big game. Supporters keep going through thick and thin. Our capacity is 13500 ish and we get around 10000 for most games, fairly consistent. Yours is 24k ish and your support fluctuates between 9k and 22k in a matter of weeks.

Let me know if you dont understand any of the big words. :lol:

The top one is the best one. It really is the last refuge of all those who, no matter how hard they try, are helpless with envy.

A prime example of why Warrington fans are, on average, the fans I hate most, at least some scousers can understand rugby.

Just how oblivious to your own team are you?

You can gloat about going to more cup finals than us recently when you have actually been to more cup finals recently than us

Deary Me!

Not got a problem about you getting positive its when you get people like wireontour and AJR coming on here and spouting ridiculous amounts of cr@p that annoys us.
