That, and 7 more championships, 6 more CCs and a WCC!

And what has that got to do with our respective stadiums? Please at least try and keep up with the thread pal.

out of interest, how do you photograph a fart?

I was merely responding to PS who insinuated that the only thing Wigan have over Saints is a few shirts that may or may not be hidden within the walls of Saints' new ground. I merely pointed out that Wigan have much more than that over Saints. HTH

Confirmed by Saints on GMR earlier.

Wigan soveniers planted in Saints new ground? That's so August 2011 ..... (2nd post from bottom of page). viewtopic.php?f=28&t=504960&start=110

Whatever prank you wacky Wigan fans have pulled at Saints' new ground, it surely can't match the stunt that the esteemed Saints' fan Terry Leahy pulled off back in the 90's, when he bought Central Park, built a supermarket over the top of it, and sent you lot off to grovel at the feet of Mr Whelan and his little football club....

I know, it's terrible playing in a 25,000 seater stadium that we pay buttons for and don't have to contribute to any repairs! I know some of the traditionalists will disagree, but facilities wise, I'd take the DW over CP any day.

I should point out that I'm not knocking LP at all. It looks a fantastic stadium and I can't wait for Good Friday. We need more modern 21st century stadiums in SL.

I've seen mobile phone video footage of someone putting in a Wigan t-shirt, and bits of Wigan stationary like a pencil case, a pencil and a ruler!!! Was under a stand though not the pitch that i saw! Maybe on a video sharing website by now.

I saw this footage about 6 months ago though!

Personally, I thought Central Park was great, a proper rugby ground, with a good atmosphere.....DW is poor in comparison has an actual RUGBY LEAGUE ground.

Always makes me laugh when people go on about facilities.....Jeez, its 90 minutes, standing watching a rugby match, not a trip to the opera....As long as you aren't stood a foot deep in mud and other folk's urine, then what's the problem.

Of course we don't want to stand still as a sport and be stuck in archaic grounds, but I really think a lot of the new grounds have struggled to find their own 'voices' in terms of atmosphere.

The problem in the 'good old days' was that most clubs neglected their stadiums and let them fall to rack and ruin....As a traditionalist, I'd have much prefered it if Wire had shown some foresight to keep Wilderspool upgraded at various intervals, instead of letting it rot.

#CurseOfTheWiganShirts

for all those saints fans denying this is true, search 'wigan warriors shirt burial at langtree park' on youtube

That is brilliant.

Class

Has anybody informed "them" yet?

Orgasmic. Someone post this on the saints board and red vee

I like the fact that one of the links in the side of that is "Burning of the Wigan shirt" and features a group of Leigh fans trying to set fire to a Wigan shirt and not being able to do it properly. One of them goes "we'll still be ere next week!" at one point.

If it's the one I saw earlier it's a bit naff.

Doesn't even get buried on tape. It just sat there in some mud in the tunnel.
Hope it actually got buried.

I heard that the people doing it got caught and sacked before they could bury it. Although that could just be rumours too!

You cant sack a contracted concrete mixer driver whos delivered his load. Anyway both the lads I know seem to be afraid to reveal themselves, however there maybe more than two lads who have buried shirts so perhaps they aren't contractors and are now regretting it? This story could take an even funnier twist if the stains/McManus gets sued for unfair dismissal

Perfect place for a doormat.

You need to get out more if you think it is 'orgasmic'!

He could just get easily aroused. Like guys who sh*g fat birds.
