Whilst Bradford have had a massive fall from grace, the Leeds Vs Bradford games have still been competitive, with a few being decided in the final few minutes. I think in the last 3 seasons the highest winning margin was 14 points.

They dont get the same hype as they did though and the attendances have been poor for derby games. Indeed I remember for a few years Leeds and Bradford fans tried to say it was the biggest derby in RL, now they dont even try to claim that. That shows how much it has declined as a derby.

That sentence is more insulting than you know.

I think finding a post where Saints fan and Saddened agree is like looking for atlantis, it does not exist. Currently Saints fan is in mourning, where as Saddo is trying to find the grave site of Royce so he can dance all over it.

Except of course when the topic they're posting on is even vaguely Wigan related.
Just like SaintsFan and St Pete.

A united front against a common enemy tends to be the norm then. Sweet really.

Saints to beat Leeds on Saturday, I can feel it!

Jeeeez, thats a poser..... Leeds or Saints to win

I bet they don't.

Mike rush in charge..i doubt it , he is even less liked within the club than the people who have just gone...(don't ask , i just know!!), can't see the team raising their performance for him

I've just seen a leeds fan offering a trade. Leeds to win, in offer of Saints beating Both Wire and Wigan.

Don't fear the reaper, just fear us. We maybe pap, but we can still get your number.

that!!

That's because what went on with Wigan in 2006 is so unimportant to us that we don't even think about discussing it. However, it would seem that you haven't got over it yet, which I suppose makes you the saddo.

all these problems with Saints dont really count as the season only starts in September, doesnt it?

I'm worried you may be right. Remember when we either started really slowly or were bobbins and we'd use the Good Friday game to get our season started? I fear the same the other way round.

To be fair to the posters on the Stains board, they all seem to be talking very sensibly about the situation as a whole.... Apart from the usual nupties of course!!! And yes we should enjoy whatever discomfort they are experiencing, what goes around comes around. I'm not bothered what was said back in 2006, we all know we would have said similar if the boot had been on the other foot... Best to sit back and watch em squirm...

Why would we want to forget such a heroic fight-back, or the dramatic way the fans flocked in to support a struggling team. If you lot sink to that level, it will be very interesting to see how your support base responds.

Stains have big problems. Sacking their coach this early on is laughable.

Their pivotal players have all gone now. Longy, Joint, Graham, Cunningham.

Their new batch doesn't have the correct vintage.

I think everybody knows whats going to happen, they will lose to Leeds, lose to Wire, then beat us on Good Friday and turn their season around.

And Wiggy & Baldy will be creaming themselves on Sky that the 'Super Saints' are back

Who gives a s***

To be honest I think KC will be calling the shots. Mike Rush will be there as KC aint got his coaching badges yet.

7 pages suggests that somebody does.

Good grief. Is that an appointment made on the basis of fond memory, or what?

Apparently so. I don't think it really matters wether they have a certificate or not. He is well respected so will hopefully bring out a bit more passion in the team. I hope...

That may go some way to it, but he'll need the technical know-how too.

Anyway, it doesn't matter too much. All the clever money seems to be on Brown taking over at the end of the year.
