Some of it will be generational, some of it down to who you view as rivals. I supported Wire at the Challenge Cup because they are a Lancashire team, they hadn't had a win in donkeys and I don't view Wire as rivals especially. That may change of course, depending on your success relative to our demise! Wigan are historic rivals and that really doesn't change. So had they made it to the Challenge Cup then I would have supported Hudds. However, the strongest rivals of all at present are Leeds and I would have supported absolutely anyone against them had they made it. That rivalry may well change if what we Saints fans have seen of our team this season is to be the norm from now on. But at present I consider Leeds our competition rivals and the Pies our historic rivals. You guys are great to play but even more fun to drop a goal on!
