Quote ="Bilko"On a serious point as I've mentioned in my [url=http://wigan.rlfans.com/news.php?readmore=706match report[/url I don't get the feeling the locals are exactly embracing this new side.
One local asked a mate of mine what the score was and his amazed response was "what? Bridgend beat Wigan?" - they don't even know the name of the side. Another amazingly asked if "Martin Offiah still played for Wigan?". Knowledgeable about the game they are not!
Didn't see that many shirts around either (apart from the ground obviously), apart from a couple of fans I remember in the Wetherspoons with a fella in a Salford shirt.'"
Thing about our fans is that they come from all over South Wales and the West. You do see a few fans wandering about in Cru shirts but they could be anywhere within a 60-100 mile radius. Be lucky if 50% of our fans there on the weekend come from Bridgend.
