Either the Tics did the walk after 10 mins or they couldn't be bothered showing up today... Just watching the Yernited v Tics game. Theres an empty stadium

There's a couple just in front of me that always leave 5 minutes early, irrespective of the score. Never understood that.

They even did it in the Leeds playoff game last year, when the score was still 26 all.

just showed a clip of the walk starting with 10 to go.

I know its not rugby related... but its Wigan.


Anyone see Motd then? Showed the tics fans off home at 2-0 down... crossing the bridge just outside the south stand

our in goal will look well tomorrow

I share that sense of disillusionment Phil. Although I try to get to as Wigan many games as I can with family and work commitments and living in Yorkshire to overcome, I find it increasingly difficult to be enthusiastic about pro RL in general. Take today, with a massively overhyped RU Eng v France game featuring a Wiganer who is a household name, with a RL game on Sky at roughly the same time watched by what looked like only a couple of thousand fans, with only a few hundred if that travelling from W Yorks to N Wales and almost nil media profile for the game or any of the players (other than ex-RU Thomas, who is not known as a RL player by the general public). What a depressing day.

I'm looking forward to tomorrow's game but the long term future of the sport at professional level looks bleak.

We have the same thing.
But to be fair they do it to beat the traffic, win or lose.

To be honest it doesn't bother me, as long as my mate gets down to the SS bar with two minutes to go to order the beer.

i thought this was a free country why do people on here feel they have a right to tell fans what they can and cant do it amazes me ive heard loads of comments at the dw when fans leave early

Of course they're entitled to do it, I just don't understand why. Missing the traffic..yeah ok, and if the game's over, win or lose, I can sort of understand it in a way.

In the example I mentioned about the Leeds game, though, I just find that completely bizarre.

It depresses me more that we have a dearth of coaching talent in the UK - John Kear and Richard Agar FFS - and yet the likes of Edwards, Ford and Farrell are giving RU the benefit of their experience.

i'm a stains fan get me out of here

This photo is a bit deceiving ..... whats happened is someone dropped a 5p piece hence the rush!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

I'll tell you that i also witnessed another wigan walk tonight,i saw it,the ground had about 50 st george fans in it when they lifted the trophy,that was some mass exodus even by your high standards

so fans left once the game had finished? they didn't want to see the opposing team lift a trophy?

oh... okay...

What a total load of balls you talk. there was more people left in that ground than you get for a home game . I'm surprised you can see anything with them balls hanging in front of your face *but that does explain your view* .. Do the maths on that one numb nuts .

I didnt leave the game when it finished today, although if i did i certainly wouldnt be losing any sleep over it!

Its good when other fans cant criticise wigan for anything else, other than leaving after a game has finished

I seem to remember OT was empty at the Saints end when Wigan lifted the SL trophy in October 2010

The 'bridge' was a nightmare tonight.

Hope they build another one soon!

Actually felt sorry for some people, there was an elderly couple in front of me that were really struggling to stay on their feet in the mud and with people pushing in front of them.

I can't believe other fans expect wigan fans to stay for 15 mins after the game to watch the other team lift the trophy, nobody else does, but because its wigan....

I did but I can see why others wouldn't.

There was no Wigan walk tonight....

Did you want Mcguire out after the game

Who? Danny McGuire? He's out already isn't he, courtesy of the Rugby Gods?

Or did you mean Maguire, the Wigan coach?

Mind you, even Sky Sports managed to get his name wrong on one of those pre-game captions, so maybe we can let you off!

But surely RG, we all go to the game to watch our team play RL , not to beat the traffic.

If they want to beat the traffic then get up at 6am on a Sunday morning and they can then drive around Wigan for an hour in traffic free bliss.

No RL club gets Soccer type attendances so leaving early to beat the traffic is a pretty poor excuse. Most RL fans support the team of the town they live in (apart from Saints fans of whom a notable number live and work in Warrington) so getting home for anybody is not a real problem.
