Did we beat anyone in 2002?

It was 2000 that comeback game I have it on VHS that I can't play now, I've been meaning to buy it again on DVD. The look on the Paul's faces is priceless.

The Bradford game from 2001 sticks in my mind as well with Paul Darbyshire as caretaker coach, just over 4,000 in the ground and Rob Smyth goes in for the match winner. Stevo said "Look at the Warrington fans going bananas" an atmosphere with just over 4,000 unbelievable.

47 - 38 against Wigan from 2001 was also brilliant, Sky thought we'd get hammered so decided to choose another game.

I thought 2001 was the Tawera Nikau barbeque incident? 82-12?

It was, we played them twice at home that season I think.

We beat them at home in front of one man and his dog, then later in the season we had a near-full ground for them spanking us in revenge.

it was a about 3 weeks later, short turnaround.

Aye, I missed the 18-14 game as I was at my cousin's wedding. 4th August. The 84-12 spanking was early September, stinking hot day IIRC, was stood in front of the Bevan stand for that game and almost got whiplash in my neck from watching Bradford players run past me so frequently.

That comeback against Bradford was one of the first games I ever went to and have been hooked ever since. It was the best atmosphere at a game I've ever experienced - at least in my memory, that could just be nostalgia talking.

Nostalgi's not as good as it used to be.

Boooooooooooo! *throws rotten tomatoes*

I still think the Wigan game at the DW was the best atmosphere.

DVDV was in charge Nikau and Toa sent off, that was the best atmosphere for me even though we got beat.
First game of the season 2001 i think plenty of biff, immense crowd that night.

The hj has been in decline for the last couple of years,in the terms of atmosphere.

Simple solution to the lack of atmosphere: join in the songs that are started.

i dont think the stewards at the hj help! talk about being over zealous!and dont get me started about the yellow lines

Not been the same since Geordie hung up his drum.
The Orange Stewards are intimidating for ever looking up in SS pointing & whispering. The big brother voice telling the kids to get off the metal stantions is scary although needs to be said. Why not put notices on them, the stantions not the kids.

Funny thing was today it was like the tables had been turned since the early 2000s. Back then we generally won the game on the field but our supporters were pretty muted, some might say we'd got too used to winning. I remember Wire fans singing their hearts out no matter what the result and really raising the roof.

It was the other way around today.

Indeed when you start winning majority of your games you start expecting rather than hoping so you don't get the same atmosphere( At home anyway).

Not got to the point where they are playing recorded crowd sounds on the pa system at the HJ.

The music played is far too loud and intimidating.Can someone come up with a decent song that we can all sing and be proud to do so?. Perhaps organise a competition to produce one. Mind you I hear Gary Barlow is a Wire. Can Simon Moran persuade him to contribute?

Barlow's a Tory from Frodsham.....More likely that he's a Union fan, than a Wire.....Yes, he's friends with Simon Moran and even been pictured alongside the Challange Cup in 2010, but it probably had more to do with being in London at the same time as the final was on, and he simply fancied a few drinks with his mate, Simon....



Also, his music is shockingly bland and wouldn't be suited to a rugby terrace....

For atmosphere, watch Celtic V Rangers (Sky Sports 4 now)

For Atmosphere get in the Grafton Friday nights in Liverpool..

The expectation is so much higher now and were used to walking over teams...
Isn't it about time someone got some new chants going instead of the Warri, Warri we only ever seem to here...
Think i'll have to get back in the South and get it cranked up!

Song 'thats my team' from the rugby league game on ps2

He runs!
He scores!
He'll Sh@g your labrador!
Monaghan! Monaghan!

He runs!
He scores!
He'll Sh@g your labrador!
And his name is Monaghan!

Monaghan! Monaghan! Monaghan!
Monaghan! Monaghan! Monaghan!!!!
Monaghan!
Mooooonaghaaaan!


Well i found it funny anyway
