Wigan population - 81,203

Warrington population - 195,200

Wigan is only bigger if you include Leigh  and i dont think leythers will be too happy about including them your crappy town (no offense)
Wigan population with Leigh - 305,600
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wigan_borough
So as you can see, as a town, Warrington is over twice the size |

You should have twice as many supporters and have a better grass roots game with more young lads coming through.
Wigan v Hudds for mine.

How much you prepared to wager?
Let me know then ring a mate of mine that works at BBC Radio Manchester.
He happens to be a Wigan RL Season ticket holder.
He is happy to represent the BBC for the purpose of the argument.

You're probably correct.
After all, if i were a woman in Warrington looking for a decent bloke, I'd rather bat for the other team so CB will probably have a better chance of scoring with a bird in your village than ours. |

To be honest the last few finals have been Saints Vs 'lambs to the slaughter' (inc Giants in 2006).
I agree - why change a proven formula?

I believe it has more to do with the original posters opinion on the final tbh.
I don't think people hate you because of your success - I think people are sick to death of hearing about it.
Modern Wigan isn't anything to write home about. I wish there was more clubs up there challenging the top two and Wigan should be part of it. |

Now im not saying they wouldnt sell their allocation for Wembley, but Wigan Saints or Warrington Saints will be seen as a much bigger tie.'"
ST sales went up nearly 100%. But don't let facts get in the way of your fictions. |

Couldn't care less who gets there as long as it's not Warrington
If it aint Saints then a Hudds Vs Wigan final is the next best thing.

I saw it posted somewhere today, cant remeber the thread though, could have meant overall attendance went up 3%, not sure, cant be bothered looking.
But if they went up 100%, its a full house at Huds then!
Good on them! |

The peni who came out with this overlooked one outcome which I think would attract just as much attention as Saints v Wigan and that is infact, Saints v Warrington.
But I think the most important thing is whichever two teams get there, deserve to be there. |
