When they signed him I went onto YouTube to have a look at his highlights and many fans from over there were glad to see the back of him

He was very good when he first played for parra but the season after he was awful

For the second week in a row Salford defended with aggression. Not typical of them but added to their good attacking prowess it was too much for Saints!. Our game this week takes on a new dimension and will be a real competition.

Somebody replied to a comment I made on Facebook about them losing 5 in a row, he sounds a bit bitter

When you've been in the mix 5 in a row, okay lost 5 in a row, how many Grand Finals have Wigan been in? How Super League titles have Wigan won? Just proves Wigan cheated their way to success when they were the only professional team and the rest was semi professional, never a level playing field, also as I remember it, Saints still pushed them close, even though the pies were fully professional. Wigan's history is fake, never a level playing field when they were really successful. So I will never regard Wigan as a successful team, a far more successful team play in the Championship, just proves how worthless Wigan is and always will be.

Ignoring the factual inaccuracies in the statement let's play ball and just use superleague era

Number of grand final wins
1. Saints 2. Leeds 3. Wigan
Number of league leaders
1. Saints 2. Wigan 3. Leeds
Challenge cup since 1995
1. Saints 2. Wigan 3. Warrington/Leeds

While clearly they have had more success in the SL era even a biased opposition fan can't say Wigan hasn't been successful.
These are two reasons not to trust people.
1. We don't know them.
2. We do know them.
