Erm, you're including Widnes but forgetting one that is less than 10 miles to possibly three of those (prepared to proved wrong though)

To be totally honest I'm quite happy to have gone through the last 10 years we've just had than the last 10 years Warrington have had, and I include battling relegation. I've got [url=http://wigan.rlfans.com/fusion_pages/index.php?page_id=868 =#FF0000my memories on DVD[/url and I'd bet a fair penny the Warrington equivalent of that page would struggle to get beyond wins against Wigan. I mean ok you won the cup last year but you also consistently failed to make the play offs.

I may be wrong but I think you have won 2 major trophies since 95. The grand final in 1998,beating leeds 10-4,and the cup in 2002 beating saints 22-8. No one mentions these in open discussion between fans though. I have had many conversations with wigan fans which always inevitably turn to "what about when we went to wembley 8 years running and won 7 championships?" As I say 15 years ago. Time you lot let it drop I think!

And there we go, a prime example of why Warrington fans will never be liked, or respected, by any other fans. You can have a conversation about a game with any other fan, try having a conversation with a Warrington fan, you'll be lucky to get dribbled on.

revised
distance from stadiums
Wigan - St Helens = 10.5 miles
Wigan - Warrington = 12.0 miles
Wigan - Widnes = 17.6 miles
Warrington - Widnes = 6.2 miles
Warrington - St Helens = 8.0 miles
Widnes - St Helens = 9.3 miles
Leigh - Wigan = 8.9 miles
Leigh - Warrington = 7.1 miles
Leigh - St Helens = 12.5 miles

So really
Wigan's derby match is Leigh
Warrington's derby match is Widnes
St Helens derby match is Warrington
Widnes derby match is Warrington
Leigh derby match is Warrington

| To make an analogy with football. I've always made the following comparisons:
Wigan = Liverpool (Long history of dominance. Lean period early 2000s but getting back to where they once were)
St Helens = Man U (Long rivalry with Wigan/Liverpool. Recent dominance much to the annoyance of said rivals. Fans can have a conversation though.)
Wire = Everton (Small time club. No real history to speak of. Think they're one of the big boys. Fans bitter till the end and will bring up any success as it's all they've got)

That's right. We also won the Premiership Trophy twice but like I said a couple of posts back I'm still happy with our last 10 years compared to Warrington. Very happy in fact.

I do. As I pointed out a few posts back. I have my memories of the last 10 years and many of them. Other cup finals (albeit lost), many play off memorable wins and quite a few wins both home & away v Saints and other major sides.
Apart from the cup final what are the other Warrington memories of the last 10 years? I remember you winning in a play off game at Leeds because I was actually there in attendance but what else?

You're looking silly mate, Wigan are the 2nd most successful club in the whole game, we are not 1st or 3rd not even in the top 10.

Fool, nothing wrong with defending your team when they are being branded a 'small club and worthless'.

Many happy memories. One of which up until this year was watching your lot turn up at our ground every year for their annual thrashing!

Yes but you are aware that there is another sport in this country that is quite popular? I was merely pointing out the similarities.
