I've just has a quick drive through Wigan. The banners and bunting are already out. Wigan Warriors triple champs. Then World Champs and to make it even better Sam Tomkins winner of the Golden Boot.
Just to finish it off Kris Radlinski will get the Nobel peace prize.

Here we go another one i see.
At no point did I claim a minority of fans are not getting carried away. I simply questioned the principle that the minority should be taken as the opinion of the grounded majority.
I then went on to mention a few Leeds fans I work with who would like Bluey out as he has lost the dressing room, etc etc etc..........and asked should we under the same principle assume this is the opinion of the entire Leeds fan base as Wilko seems to suggest?
The answer is of course no and all clubs have fans who get carried away regardless of the situation, good or bad.

Another one what? You did say show me a fan who is not getting carried away, I told you about, albiet a deleted one, a whole thread.
You did not show us, deleted or not, any post from your Leeds fans who you work with who would like Bluey out as he has lost the dressing room. To be honest i'm getting a little bit lost as to what you are arguing about at the moment. I simply pointed out about your deleted thread, where you said no one was getting carried away, you got all defensive for some reason about it.

Where did i say nobody is getting carried away?
I unlike Wilko do not speak for everyone.
Wilko stated "most of the town is saying this that and the other" off the back of a few randoms, his evidence in fact was second hand info from his mate. He took the minority opinion and made it in his mind fact.
He then said "No Leeds fan wants Bluey sacked" or word to that effect, some do again a minority but he does not use apply the same principles to his like of debate that he applies to his Wigan statement. Is it that tough to understand?

He's right though, they are. I've never known a more arrogant bunch of fans in March.

to be fair that thread was started by a dillusional fan. It was one fan. The replies from the posters on that thread myself included stated how ridiculous it was and quickly put him in his place. All clubs have the odd fan like that it just so happened that ours reared his ugly head at that point. I do not remember a wigan fan agreeing with him. The thread was deleted and rightly so. Wigan fans in general are for once enjoying a good start to the season and if you regularly attend the wigan board most posters state how we want to gage how far we have come against the two best teams in the comp... yourselves and saints. nothing arrogant in that in fact it should be compliment when we are gaging our credentials against other teams to measure potential success.

You should look on the 2nd thread posted by TVOC above then. I have no problem with supporters bragging about there team doing well, but that was not the issue here, it was another poster trying to play this down and then knitting fog to try and turn it around, even with all the proof posted, rather than just saying ok you got me. He just ended up going around in circles.
Will the result, should you win, gauge how far you have come tonight?

i dont think this game will to be honest. I would have liked a full strength team from leeds and although some key players are back, will they be match fit/sharp. I think tonight is a lose/lose game for us. If we lose the usual banter will start mocking our good start to the season stating we cant beat the top sides...if we win then it will be a victory against an injury ridden, rusty leeds side. i think the easter period as whole will show what we have achieved and whether we are contenders or not. If we're top of the pile after next weekend i think we need to be taken seriously as contenders but to be honest i have sneaky feeling this might actually be the year of the wolf.

Wow at last someone with reason. You are contenders, you look good early doors and that sort of early season feel good factor can go a long way. Still not sure on the Wolves TBH as I get the feeling they still feel they can be beat. Strange game tonight for me, I go into every game feeling we can win, my glass is always half full, but I feel your home advantage may just be the edge. Ganson maybe ours.................no wait forget that

| If this wigan side are the favourites for the title this league must be the worst since the SL era.
Leeds have got their third team out and are dominating this so called champion side at their own ground. If a full strength Leeds side meet this Wigan side at OT in October We will be 4 time champs no question.

I just think when it comes to the last 2 months of the season, we are going to be the team to beat.
1st place has to win 2 games to get to old trafford.
8th place has to win 3. So theres not really as much advantage as there was before.
Last years 8th place catalan dragons, went away to wakefield in their first game, a place you'd feel confident of winning with a full team in a playoff situation.
We're in a bad patch at the moment, but we'll work our way up the table, slowly but surely. I honestly think we could take out the title from anywhere in the playoffs. If we hadn't had the injuries and WCC we'd be top 2.
