I'm in N. France. Just in case anyone else has booked to go to La Croix du Vieux Pont near Soissons, we have Free View TV in our Chalet there. Any other Wire fan who's there at the same time (and I've seen quite a few there in the past) is very welcome to watch and sink a few beers.

Yes away in Sri Lanka it is the first semi or final I have missed since 1972

My mates wife only went and booked a family holiday over the same weekend as the challenge cup final

So how many is that you have missed then?

WIGAN have won more trophies than any other British rugby league club----------WIGAN won the Championship 7 times in a row from 1989 to 1995----------WIGAN won the Challenge Cup, a record, 8 times in a row from 1988 to 1995----------WIGAN are the only British club to win the World Club Challenge in Australia----------WIGAN have appeared in four World Club Challenge Finals, winning three----------Only two Englishmen have won the coverted Golden Boot Award, both played for WIGAN. Ellery Hanley (1989) & Andrew Farrell (2004)----------WIGAN are often referred to, by the Australian media, as the "English glamour club"----------WIGAN supplied a record 13 tourists for the 1989 Great Britain team----------WIGAN have been referred to, by the French media, as the "aristocrats" of rugby league

--------WIGAN RL is a club to be proud of--------


[uWigan relegated in 1979, Division 2 champions 1980.[/u Wire have never been able to outdo that record either!

Right I am not on here to argue or anything but seriously anyone would take a year in a lower division to have that sort of success. That is just a silly post with no point to it, nor does it answer my question.

and you are just a silly man.

I laughed aswell

I'm on holiday on Challenge Cup Final Day, but not if we get there!

yes I have booked a holiday, its called getting back for the game and its not cheap. beating the pies however.... priceless.

Brilliant.

See you in Widnes.

Nephews wedding !!

Yep missing the semi, gutted.

Going to Kenya the day before, but back for the final

You see, im here for both the sesmi and the final

In the Maldives for the final.

Always book hols in June and July, no football or semi's and finals, or if you're a liverpool fan you can book one anytime of the year excluding augist, as most of them don't attend games anyway.

I'm not on holiday for the semi final, but I am on holiday for the Challenge Cup Final.

I'm in London for the Challenge Cup Final.

Read the post goon!.............It's the first he has missed since 1972!!

Therefore by inference that means he hasn't missed any!!

Get it now??

book my hols out of season just in case we do have a bit of a cup run...seems to me the women are getting the major say with some on here as regards to hols...put em straight wait till the seasons over

ermmm?...no we wouldn't. We are the [ionly[/i team in the RL and SL history that has never finished bottom and/or been relegated. I wouldn't swap a 140 years of that for just a decade of a single team dominance!!

Oh I really really do wish that we had never been relegated for that one year. You are right never getting relegated is better than winning everything we have won. Are you daft?

no you are daft,stop living in the past,now it's a much more level playing field you are not the all conquering side you once were.
and we have never been relegated or cheated on the salary cap.

Seriously, I am not living in the past. I just thought the persons point was stupid so I disagreed. People on here do not like me because I argued for days that wire were not a bigger club than Wigan. Take away our decade of dominance and we have still won more. Take away all that and think about super league era and we have still won more. Look at the last 2 years and we have have been way more succesful. That is a valid point, and yet people still disagree.

what have you won in the last 2 years?
