or Blue, white, yellow and chocolate.

I never thought I would say this, but it's Saints for me, the way the buffoons from Cheshire have become on the the most loathed teams around ( by which I mean their fans not the club itself )

Saints. Pains me to say it but they are a proper rugby league club with a decent set of fans. Worthy of our respect.

Wire have neither attributes and are worthy of no respect at all.

Losing to us must of really hurt given how much you dislike us.

It was irritating, but last Friday and Saturday more than made up for it.

Does '21-12' consider himself to have a 'good knowledge' of the game like the supposed 'Saints fans in general'. I wonder if he'll be cheering on the 'amber and blue' or the
crimson V and cream on Saturday. Also, no-one on the wire board has said 'we are the greatest team' and words to that effect, it's just a number of sl fans believe that just because we have had some recent success, they like to believe that our fans are arrogant when in reality it's a way of deflecting disappointment.

Cue 'when you've won as many trophies as we have etc.........'

Not at all, its just the verbal diarrhoea that many of your fans like to to spout.

Give some proof of this verbal diarrhea. The only sh*t flying around is from yourself.

If you say so.

Can't see how it wouldn't of hurt though as most of you lot seem to dislike us more then Saints.

well said gazwire

Can we lock this thread? This Saints love in is making me sick

Not really, shrugged it off. Best team won on the night.
I just find our relationship with Saints fans is like a pantomime villain kind of thing. Arch enemies but good natured at heart. Respect borne out of the fact that for the past 60 years or so we've gone toe to toe for rugby league supremecy. We'd have a decade, then they'd have a decade and so on. When it's our time we take the mick out of them and they take it in good spirits and vice versa.

Wire have always been on the outside of this. A nasty little club with sh ithouse fans

In the much bigger picture I don't think (or rather hope) it wont matter. If Wigan are going to win the league we're in an excellent position to do it for ourselves. If Saints win, whose to say they wont catch us up? I just hope for an enjoyable game of high class Rugby League that provides an entertaining spectacle on Sky Sports. Including plenty of biff and a couple of bans!

Got far more respect for Saints than Wire (am I really saying this!

) so would have to choose Saints just hope it is a great game and sorry that Eastmond isn't playing

If it meant Warrington winning the league and us finishing second I still want Wire to beat St Hell. Under no circumstances could I ever bring myself to want THEM to win a game. I think I should see a psychiatrist really because as much as I love Wigan RLFC, I think my hatred of St Hell is greater. In my mind I think it stems from Wembley 1961, as far as I know this is the first game I sat and watched with my dad and I was heartbroke at the end but then again I was only Eight!

missed that, enlighten me

Have you threw any ale at players recently...?

'a nasty little club with house fans'.
-Are these house fans the ones who totally out sung you at the DW and in fact all games between the two.
-Took 35,000 to Wembley last year.
-Over decades with no success, have 999/1000 times clapped and supported the team off without leaving and NOT being fickle enough to only sing when winning.
-A fanbase which has increased recently due to a financial input in the same way in which Wigan, Saints, Bradford and Leeds have benefitted from.
-Fans which create the best atmopshere at home (generally acknowledged), due to passion and support throughout the game, even if were not winning and
the team needs some backup.
-World record attendance at Odsal with an attendance and occasion you will never get close to surpassing-not bad for 'a little club'.

the ditch and other pie fans slagging wire off- GET REAl.
We might not have the same number of trophies historically, but our fans are proper fans who get behind the team and don't sit there statuesque, spoilt with past success.

I've made a few posts recently on this, Wire and Saints' board trying to be fairly balanced and have given you credit this season where it has been rightly due. But all this
deluded, envious anti- wire rubbish really increases my feeling of dislike for Wigan RL and it's fans and makes me really want Wire to come up against you and absolutely
batter you.

Dummy spit of the year.

Absolutely spot on my friend.

Couldnt have said it better myself

Most years i go to the HJ, i get some idiot in the towncentre either goading me or throwing some insulting gesture. Im sure Warrington have lots of genuine fans who would be great to have a chat with they just seem to have an unusually large hooligan element akin to football. Take the wigan vs crusaders away game when they had a gang of fans in the corner of our end who had turned up for nothing more than to cause trouble signing anti-wigan fans through the whole game.

I think its something to do with them building on a small foundation of core fans in the last decade now alot of Warrington fans have only been watching the game for 4,5,6 years as evidenced by the growing crowds year on year, theyve probably been brought up on football where this sort of hooliganism is the norm.

Awwww bless.

I think it's more to do with how we're 'welcomed' every year to your ground. Maybe Yicker or Mini Yicker (both females who were assaulted by males) will be around to shed some light on it for you.*







*yes we have had some trouble makers this season but they appear to be one-offs whereas it happens EVERY year at the HJ (sometimes even though we aren't playing Wire) and I also believe some wire fans were fighting on the retail park last week

I knew you would like my comments. They are uncomfortably true are they not? You guys can certainly type louder than you sing.

'Maybe Yicker or Mini Yicker (both females who were assaulted by males) will be around to shed some light on it for you.'

I've been following wire since 1988 and have never, ever seen any wire male fans attacking any female fans. I'd be as disgusted as you if this was the case but
there are plenty of myths flying around.
