Rangers FC I believe.

Some fantastic responses on the thread by the way



This sums it up for me really. Today I stayed back after College to attend a late session and the tutor somehow got onto talking about clothing. He looked at my t-shirt and said "...a rugby top, red and white, Wigan Warriors" and without even thinking about it I had a massive pride filled smile on my face.

I am incredibly proud of the club and to be a fan fills me with pride.

Get out?

It would be like Wigan and St Helens playing in NWC division 6 for 100 years.

Unfortunately thats the case.

Scottish Championship.
Scottish Cup
Scottish League Cup

Plenty chances of silverwear when there has only been 2 teams in it for decades.

what are you talkin about?

Depends on what sort of money they could bring in I suppose, I'd say bottom half starting off as they wouldn't be used to the pace week in week out. Don't think it's ever going to happen though which is a great shame IMO regardless of what people think of the sectarianism between the 2 clubs.


Anyway, getting back on topic. I love how wherever I go if I have my Wigan shirt on it is always noticed, whether it be in England or abroad there is always someone who will know our famous club. I love the build up to match days, seeing the same faces you know who are going to be there every week regardless of how we are doing. I've also met some pretty good people and had some very enjoyable trips that I never would of imagined happening when I first started watching Wigan. I count myself extremely lucky and proud when anyone asks me who I support, not just because of our history and success but because we are what our badge says. Well, Loyal anyway

Its impossible to pick any one thing, they are just Wigan RL, a massive part of my everyday life, all week is spent looking forward to the game, then it arrives and come hell or highwater no matter how we play, that starts all over again as soon as the game is done.

I also love the passion of our fans - Which is displayed nowhere better than on here with the amount of arguing we do with each other.

Anyway.. I love how everyone outside of Wigan hates us which makes us love the club even more.

this great club is like family

some days you love it
others you wish you had never met it

but mostly its always there when you have bad times and good.

through wigan and rugby in general i have met some fantastic people and have introduced friends ( who like me thought football was a great game) to the beautiful truely family game of RUGBY LEAGUE.

Oh god what I love about this club.....

the history
the passion and loyalty of the fans
27-0
the edwards offiah nod
central park
the fact our forwards once were also the full GB forwards
the friends I have made
the ability to change your mood in the blink of an eye
the moustaches
8 in a row
the legends who have wore the cherry and white proudly

Time for Rad's to be inducted imo.

Just removed abuot 15 posts discussing wendyball, if you want to discuss try another forum, and dont clog up a good topic.

Ta.

Insecure Wigan RL fans discussing the Latics? I don't believe it.

They were actually discussing Rangers.

Thank you !!!!!

That's worse!



Anyway back on topic - something else I love about Wigan RL:

The knowledge and patience of the fans.

The fact that no matter what gets thrown at us, us supporters still turn up in numbers home and away.

Ancient and Loyal.

Quite.

Steamy Windows ??

Outstanding patter that you just cannot teach!


I just love the club! love the fans (well most of em

) Met some crackin folk watchin Wigan over the last 4 or so years(im fillin up here) and seen some amazing games. I know il watch them win a trophy, even if im 64.
The fact that Simply the best is synonymous with the club is apt

1. they play in wigan, my home town
2. the history, some of which ive witnessed
3. the legends ive seen play over the years
4. the camaraderie of the fans

Were still the biggest name in the sport.

I love the banter at matches

The fact that we are the most famous club in the world of rugby league, and always will be

where do i start?

the team, if you want your ups and downs support wigan- how glad i am that i support wigan

the memories- the good and the bad winning challenge cups after challenge cup and also the bad- nearly getting relegated in 06

the coaches, some great characters have been in charge of this marvelous club and long may that continue

the envy- which every rugby league club, and certain football clubs show us! proves that we are the greatest club in the world

the fantastic friends who i have met at rugby, how i would never change that

the away days! the fans! the club in general!

the badge and the immense pride i get when people mention wigan warriors!

who can forget when we where all bouncing at leeds when calderwood scored in 06? "look at the dancing on the terraces"

who can forget the attendances we got when we were on the verge of relegation

who can forget the wigan fans staying in force when we lost 75-0?

no body!

we are simply the greatest sporting club in the world, and that is why i love wigan.

I love the passion of the fans - even though 2005 and 2006 were dreadful seasons results wise, the atmosphere at the games was the best I've ever experienced and showed how much the club means to the fans. The crowds went up! The club don't deserve us I think sometimes.

I love our heritage and our status in world Rugby League and general sporting terms - everyone knows about Wigan RL. The fact every other club loves beating us more than any proves that.

For me also, it's a tradition going back years in my family and it's great to carry that on.
