Sneak out Saints,

To be honest and fair all teams do it, but people love the banter.

Wigan having the bigger fan base are just more noticeable

But they are also the victim of massive exaggerations.

For Sky's cameras to focus on one guy in a Wigan shirt standing outside the Millennium Stadium a couple of years ago, making a call on his mobile phone, and Eddie to proclaim that the Wigan fans were leaving early was pretty poor even by his standards.

If 5% of 25k walk compare that with 5% of 5.5k, what looks worse ?

Not so much massive exaggeration, just the most obvious to the naked eye.

us wire fans dont do it... we stay behind to call for the head of the coach

Look closely at Man United matches, win lose or draw for the biggest walk.

With fifteen minutes to go, literally thousands get up and bugger off (to beat the traffic/to get back to the airport to go back to Ireland).

The worse one I saw was against Liverpool a few seasons ago, they got pumped (3 or 4 nil), were losing heavily at half time.

With 30 minutes to go, literally 30 thousand people walked out (including my mate).
With five to go there was around 20k on, with a good chunk of that Liverpool fans obviously.

It's not actually the cardinal sin that people claim it is. If you've turned up in the first place and paid for your ticket, then you've done your duty for your club. It's up to you when you go home.

As others have said repeatedly, it's actually a far bigger offence to never go in the first place, but still to claim that you're a fan. That's asking for the praise but not delivering the service.

Don't get it personally, why pay for a ticket and leave early not getting 'the monies worth' ?

I've seen Wire get battered and stayed till the end every time, the only time i've ever left early is when i was catching a plane and really couldn't afford to get stuck in traffic.

Correct.

Wigan is even more famous for the 'Wigan walk' than for the trophys they've won. Fact.

You're a wit. Fact.

Another 'FACT' merchant.

The only fact here is that he's made 10 posts to date, and though he hates Wigan, the majority of them are on the Wigan message board.











Ouch ... if only that hurt us as much as every time we win hurts him.

Well he ain't a Wire, Ain't Salford, and he ain't Widnes... he wants them in Super League cause he can't stand them......so I'm going out on a limb here and state he's one of our 'webbed footed' friends from ...........


Leyth.

He's in Lucy pinders bed, if that doesn't shout VIRGIN nothing does.

Truth hurt lads?

The embarassing 'Wigan walk' is all you're famous for. Oh and cheating to dodge relegation.

Better to have a chequered past than none at all.











But that's life if you're a Leyther!

8 Challenge Cups in a row?
19 League Titles?
Winning the WCC in the Aussies backyard?
Reigning Champions?

The truth never tasted so good



Just because Mummy's let you stay up because its a weekend doesn't mean you have to make an idiot of yourself. Back to school on Monday

Let's talk about the pathetic 2,000 crowds you were getting when you got relegated instead.

Let's talk about you avoiding relegation to Championship One because Gateshead went into administration



And besides our attendances were higher than 2,000 in the 1980-81 season, never dropped below 3,000 never mind 2,000. Get your facts right before you troll.

Is that all the self-styled 'biggest club in the world' could attract because they were in the lower divisions?

Pathetic.

It also merits a mention that your glorydays of the mid 80s to mid 90s came when Wigan were the only professional club. What happened when all sides became professional in 1996? The trophys dryed up immediatley.

That equals your success was false.

Whilst ignoring the idiocy of the 1996 all teams became professional bit:

1998 Grand Final Winners
2002 Challenge Cup Winners
2010 Grand Final Winners


Your not very good at this are you?

Now's an excellent time for you to become a missing person.

Is that all?

3 trophys in 15 years for the self-styled 'biggest club in the world' is an embarassment.

It's "trophies" FFS....!!!

[size=85And pssssssttttt......Wigan were not the the first fully professional Rugby league Club in this country. [/size
Yes a lean spell of three 'trophies' in fifteen years is unusual for a great club like ours, tell you what......come back in a decade, lets count again.
