Surely you realise that the Challenge Cup only becomes significant if Wigan win it?

Come on Gents, calm down.

It's only Wane's version of mind games, and it's been done just as amateurishly as Ferguson does it at The Swamp.
At the start of last season's Premiership "we're looking forward to battling it out with Chelsea, Arsenal and Spurs" (someone missing, eh, Taggart)
And, at the Champions League Final of 2011 "we're hoping to increase our wins, so we're nearing the big boys, Real, Bayern, Milan and Ajax" (no Liverpool then).
Taggart (like Wane) comes out with these "pearls of wisdom", to wind people up. Looks like he's succeeded (in some quarters). Let Wane say what he wants. He knows we're his teams biggest rivals, now. Let him make a tool of himself at press confrances. Mind you, he already does that, every time he opens his mush. He sounds like he's speaking with a mouthful of gobstoppers. Laughable.

If we win on Sunday and we play Wigan in the final, then i'd expect more of the same. It's just mind games so ignore him. I'd love nothing more to see Wigan lose tomorrow, just like all the other fans on here, but I really can't see that happening. We can all hope though.

your telling me wigan have won the challenge cup christ must of been cutting the grass when that happened

Oh i think he meant it, time to slap you upstarts and help you know your place...... Many of you think you are our "Derby" side, and when he insults you, in time honoured fashion, you get all precious!!....


Jeez, some of you are all really touchy over here!!!!!

Shaun Wane is just a pie munching Gobe whom shud be totally ignored !

This thread is an embarrassment to mankind.

I'm really starting to enjoy your posts

Why people let this big daft gorilla get to them i don't know, do the talking on the pitch, if anything he's putting unnecessary pressure on his own team.

Embarrassing thread.

Well it would have been to wordy in an interview to say 'we've beaten all the big teams except warrington beat us oh and so did huddersfield and a struggling Bradford, come to think of it bottom club Widnes beat us to but it was close! anyway we just need to be mentally......' It just wouldn't flow the same so i don't think it was a sleight.

In another sport, a manager of a big club who play in red also said "we've played and beaten all the big clubs so far this season" just a few weeks before getting absolutely trounced by the eventual champions.

I don't think he's bright enough to be arrogant is he? Poor thread.

People wonder why most of our threads descend into a tit for tat battle.

The best bit is that two Berties have to mention United. Classic bitters. 19-3.

He always manages to say this line when his team wins

" I dont mean any disrespect to **insert club name***....BUT...."

I dont mean any disrespect to Shaun Wane but he's big fat oik thats got two more seasons at wigan tops before they get an Aussie in".

just listening to wane now on bbc speaking to tanya arnold didnt sound arrogant , came across quite well and shown leeds respect fair play to the fella

Probably intimidated by her voice.

Blimey charlie! I bet Wane's feeling more humble now!

.........And has just had his fa£ ar$e handed to him on a plate!!!

There's some right precious souls on here. I doubt Wane deliberately meant to ignore us, but even if he did, so what?

As for comments about us being "a real big club", get a grip. Wigan are far bigger than us and if that ever changes it will take a long time. Deal with it and concentrate on your (our) own club.

You sure your account's not been hacked DM, i keep finding myself agreeing with you lately?

Ask him if he likes replica shirts...

It's a big time today so I'm wearing colours.

I've got my blue and yellow adidas SL80's on.

Good Choice
