| Quote ="WireFanatic II"Not true. At least we've won a trophy in the last 35 years.
Keep dreaming pal.
Biggest game of the year is Saints, either home or away. Why would our biggest game of the year be against against a team that we have never lost against at home in a competitive fixture?
Yes, there is a strong possibility that the above run will come to an end. You guys have been very impressive so far this season and I wouldn't be surprised if you do take the 2 points. However, even if we lose on Saturday, our biggest game of the year will still be against St Helens.'"
You have never lost against us at home in a competitive fixture? Are you 6?

I would guess not, but then anyone over six years of age would have realised that he's talking about Super League.

I would agree entirely. Besides, what's with all this 'your biggest game of the year' stuff anyway? Ask SL coaches and I guarantee that 100% of them will say that their [inext [/igame is their biggest game of the year.

It was a Wire fan who brought it up by thinking he could be smart and cute!

| Think a few maybe underestimating the Wire for next week.
Yes, we should be feeling confident about the start we have made, but this is a massive test.
Smith is a good motivator, and Wire will be up for this one; Wigan at their place, one of the biggest games of the season for both clubs.
I haven't seen either the Carvell or Morley incidents, but to be honest, if one or both of them were ruled out for our match, it'd be a massive boost. I'm confident our outside backs can out perform those of Warrington, but this match is going to be won up the middle of the park by the team whose pack dominate.
I think we trump them in the back row, but as ever, we're relying on a big performance from our props next week.
If we can handle the threat of Briers and match them in the pack, then I think we can take the 2 points, but it's going to be difficult.
Can't wait for this one.

| Quote ="Jukesays"And Man City may get "Lucky" this year and win one? It still doesn't change anything, you'll always live in the shadow of Wigan! Just like City live in UTD's Shadow

City will live in Utd's shadow all the time Utd keep winning trophies. So how does that make Wire live in your shadow ? Correct me if I'm wrong but Wigan haven't won a competitive trophy since 2002 ?
Further to that, Wire own their own stadium. They don't have to rent space from the towns main sporting team, Wigan Athletic. They also have a very rich owner in Simon Moran who isn't scared to reach for the cheque book when required. You have Ian Lenagan.
Never let be said that Wigan fans are living on past glories when they were the only full time club in Rugby League and won trophies.

| Going back to what was said previously, If Carvell & Morley don't play then it will be an altogether different game than if they do take the field.
I'm pretty sure that if both or either were playing for Cas they'd miss next week.
Leeds and Wire seem to lead a charmed life with the refs and disciplinary people.

Because UTD are a bigger club than City whether their winning trophies or not? They were bigger than City in the 70's & 80's when they didn't win a Great deal.
Liverpool are bigger than Everton for the Same reasons.
And just as the Earth Circles the Sun, Wigan will always be bigger than Warrington, It's the natural order of things!

Stop talking sense, this is the Wigan board.
Having watched your performance on Friday evening on Sky it looks like your defense has improved massively under your new coach. So the game should be very even and should make a great spectacle for both sets of supporters and the neutral.
You may well be in for your first competitive victory at the HJ next Saturday, but the seasons a marathon, not a sprint. I'm sure, should you win, the normal Goons on this board will be proclaiming it will be the Year of the Pie etc.

I'm guessing a few Wigan fans reading your stupid posts will be cringing at the thought that you could possibly get beaten next Saturday. Making such silly statements could come back and bite you badly, just like they did after the semi final last season.
Now get your head out of the 80's and face the reality that your not famous anymore. Its you that lives in a shadow...... the shadow of your towns big club and land lord, Wigan Athletic.

| Oh dear at this thread. What an earth Shatics have to do with the Wire vs Wigan match next week is beyond me. Wigan have more season tickets sold than Wire and a bigger average attendance, thus Wigan are the bigger club. Simple mathematics.
It will be great if it's a Wigan vs Wire grand final this year. Great for the sport and great for both clubs. Why we have to resort to sniping and bitching is beyond me.

Don't think anyone is underestimating Warrington, Saturday will just be another yard stick to see how far we have come, TBH Morley want a punishment for what he did, there is just no need for a player of his ability, not seen the Carvell incident. But Myler & Briers look to have hit the ground running. So it will be a intense game.
We on here are just pointing out to the Cheshire, Manc, scouse, wannabees that Wigan, was, is and always will be a bigger club than Warrington.
O
And that they won the Challenge Cup last year, if you didn't know.
