saw my 1st rl game on tv. it was wigan versus saints boxing day match & it just blew me away, sitting in awe at the speed, athleticism & brutallity of the game. Ive been hooked on wigan ever since and never missed a home game for 12 years. Even my wife has been converted and comes to the matches with me, & she's a yorkshire lass exiled in stoke due to work!

I was brought up in Liverpool (and proud of it!). I spent my teenage years on the Kop and knew all the songs. I started supporting Wigan when my son started playing 12 years ago. I'm now a rugby league addict. I would much prefer to go to a rugby game than football. (I do still have a very soft spot for Liverpool) Now I have to say I'm Wigan til I die
