Once again the reason I prefer your lot to Warrington was proven. Coming out of the game after a long stay behind, loads of saints fans shaking our hands and wishing us luck at wembley. A fantastic day with no trouble at all just good banter. Both sets of fans showed the world what the real derby in rugby league is. Your fans were great today.

Well said pal. Stayed right to the end and applauded your guys off after a great display. On another day you could have run us ragged.

See you at Old Trafford if the draw is kind.

well said indeed mate

We can Handle defeat a lot better in big games these days, weve had a practice over last five years.

Its always been the same, we hate eachother for 80 minutes but there is an underlying mutual respect between the two clubs. I certainly respect Saints and what they have achieved over the last 15 years.

Yep, got to endorse what has been said. I've been a season ticket holder at Ewood Park for longer than I can remember. The Wigan/Saints equivalent is Rovers/Burnley. Whilst that hasn't happened too often over the last 30 years, when it does it's bedlam. Gangs of to$$ers everywhere, riot police, overhead helicopters, fights, stabbings, fans only getting tickets if they arrive by official coach, you've got to plan or alter your route to the ground and so on.

How refreshing then to able to be walk away from the HJ yesterday without having to face any of the above worries and being able to mingle freely with Saints fans back to the car in afriendly atmosphere. It's one of the reasons why my Mrs comes to most Wigan games but won't set foot in Ewood - well not unless I really persuade her!

Thanks again, lets hope for a Wigan Saints GF and I look forward to visiting your new stadium next season.

Shame u have a element of supporters contrary to all the nicey nicey your talking about. I'm a Wire and was happily standing in the West yesterday - what I saw at the end of the game was shocking to say the least! A female Leeds supporter was punched in the face by a drunken Saints fan!! Where is the respect there???

Yes ok, now fook off

Funny that, nobody else on either board has mentioned this "incident" you speak of.

Aww bless, you still a ickle bit bitter because of 2 weeks ago ? Want to cause a ickle bit of friction ? No one else saw trouble neither did you now pop along to the offy.

I to saw the incident with the leeds fans. It happened right at the end of the game under the stand. The saints fan was wearing glasses and he punched the Leeds fan twice in the face. Sometimes im ashamed to be a saints fan.

also a shame for the person (i won't call him a fan as i don't think he was) who jumped of the saints red kite double decker bus started shouting at us then proceeded to smash a bottle on the floor and telling us were going to have it and come on.Thanks to the real saints fan's who jumped off the bus and dragged the soft lad away.

Talk about obsessed with Warrington.

Says the dire wire fans thats on the SAINTS board, viewing at topic about SAINTS fans at yesterdays game btween SAINTS and WIGAN!!!

IT'S OFFICIAL, ron is obsessed with SAINTS.

There was a fat guy STOOD WITH A SMALL CHILD at Subway telling anybody in a Wigan shirt that they were T055ers .......Parent of the year by some way

i was collecting with the bucket in the west stand there was an incident between a female leeds fan and a male saints fan she came under the concourse after the final hooter and when she seen the a guy she made a beeline straight for him shouting he had butted her in the face she did have bruising but i didnt actually sse the alleged incident but something had obviously happened

I will back the wire fan up on this it happened just to the side of us. Not sure what sparked it as the Leeds fans had been shouting and singing for us throughout the game. Have to say no matter what was said I cannot see it justified punching a girl in the face. What a big man.

You haven't been on the Wigan board for a while Ron....

Only saying what I saw..he was a coward that ran away - u wanna question that too. Muppet!

Do us a favour mate, phone Morley up and ask him when he'll be back, put it on speakerphone aswell.

Sadly i too saw the incident with the leeds fan and a saints fan. The leeds fans where stood directly in front of us and the saints fan did head butt the female leeds fan. I do beleive the leeds fan did something to aggravate the man but there is no excuse for a fella to headbut a woman is there. To be honest alot of the saints fans around me did tell the guy to go away as there was no need for what went on. I did find the leeds fans annoying but nothing more then a bit of banter which there is no harm in.

I don't know if all this really happened but why was the Leeds fans at saints v Wigan game?

A few neutrals went i think, i saw two Hull KR fans walking to the ground. Just desperate to see a good game of rugby I guess...

Stupid neutrals going to watch a rugby match, that woman deserved the beating she got.
