Sanctimonious self-righteous claptrap

With this site being "down", I had the misfortune of having to read the self-anointed piffle from the "other" site" where the fans are so full of ***** because they consider themselves "proper" fans because:
1. They don't complain about IL
2. Don't complain about anything Wigan
3. Don't claim to know anyone "in the know" unlike posters on this site despite one or two posters intimating exactly the same all over that place
4. All have a penchant for agreeing with everyone else because they couldn't have an independent point of view if saving their life depended on it, they crassly accept what someone else posts no matter how much utter bollox it is
5. Think every Wigan player is great unless they look like moving on (then they knew they would never make it)
6. When we are potentially recruiting someone then they will be the best player we will have ever seen play for Wigan (because that is their opinion and that counts more than anything else
Probably loads more but I am seriously pleased to see this site back "up and running". Despite the debate and differing points of view on here, at least fans of the club CAN and DO debate irrespective of upsetting other posters, other-wise, simply, what is the point of a forum?????
Thanks Mike

Don't see any point in this "us and them" stuff. Plenty post on both without any issues.

Agree with Moto, happily post on both, usually better " insider info" on here. As someone outside of Wigan, it's all the RL chat I get. I work in Sheffield, and there has been zero mention of Wembley, so any RL chat is most welcome.

I read that on the other site, sounded like they had their own little click cringing!
Say what you want for me, that’s what these sites are all about OPINIONS!!
Like it or lump it.

Clickiest forum on the interweb, It's that bad I got banned once for saying so, If I'd said the same on here it would have been laughed at and then ignored

Quite agree and posts like the above only aggravate the situation.

Some shocking happy clappers on rlfans. One in particular. I just wish the club would give him the job he's desperate for. Every message he posts is for Kris Rads benefit.
