Re: That Song!

I know we have already won 8 times in a row. The point is that with the current squad and set up, maybe we can do it again?
And I'm not moaning! Far from it - I am absolutely delighted that we are getting back where we belong!

Re: That Song!

<t>Had another think about the re-wording of this song. What about 'With Lockers and Richards, Tomkins and Charnley, we're gonna win 8 in a ro-o-ow?<br/> A tad arrogant admittedly, but from what I have seen on non-wigan RL sites we are nearly as well known for our arrogance as we are for our pies, s...

Re: That Song!

<t>I understand the song highlights the great tradition of the Wigan club, and when we were going through hard times it was good to be reminded of that. My point is we now have a team filled with up and coming (and established) greats of the modern game and we don't need to live in the past anymore....

Re: Long Retires

<t>I never really got over what Long did to us in our last Challenge Cup final appearance at Cardiff. It was after the betting scandal involving him and Gleeson had come to light and the RFL put off banning him until later in the season, just so that he could take us apart on his way to winning the ...

That Song!

<t>The one about all the legends from the glory years with the Kevin Iro-o-o-o chorus. I don't live in the Wigan area anymore and work stupid shifts so don't get to many home games, so I could be misinterpreting the singing of this song, but as we now have a team who have won the league leader's shi...

Re: Wembley food

Have been to the cup final for the last few years and not had any problems taking sandwiches in to the ground. they can be a bit funny about drinks though, so not sure about your flask.

Re: 5000 new supporters

<t>OK I know we have drifted from the original point slightly, but if to increase rugby league's popularity in Wigan and the surrounding area we need to make it more fashionable, to do this effectively we would need the media on side; to get the media on side it would help to have the RFL pushing it...

Re: 5000 new supporters

<t>Completely agree that the blanket coverage of football in the media is a real problem. Newspapers and TV give the most space to what they think the most people will want to know about, making football infinitely easier to follow than any other sport. In making football the most accessible sport, ...
