Cant beleive any Wigan fan at this moment in time would want Wire to beat Saints in the final. Not a chance.

Do you wanna bet?

Is right. It would be their birthday, Christmas and cherry pop all in one go.

Saints are our proper rivals, Wire are just pretenders. People need to remember that.

I was discussing the games with my mam today (she's 89 years young) and I asked her who she would want to win if it was a Wire v Saints final.



If looks could kill I'd be laid out now. "I never want Saints to win anything" was her reply.

A REAL Wiganers answer.

I think Wigan have. Not the Grand Final but the equivalent - in the 1920s or sometime. I seem to remember at the Championship Finals at Wire last year when Oldham lost for the fourth consecutive year, the commentator pointed out that they joined Wigan in being one of only two clubs (at that time) which had lost four championships on the bounce. Of course, we joined the exclusive club just a week later.



I'm only going on what I remember the commentator saying; I haven't checked the accuracy. The comments on here about us losing four on the bounce just reminded me.

Come on.



There comes a time when making the showpiece final isn't good unless you actually win. Constantly losing it is bad.



5 grand final defeats on the trot?



I don't think theres any team in ANY sport with a record like that. You'd go down in history as major grand final chockers, certainly the current mob would. It would be awful. Don't try and dress it up, ''at least we got there'' that doesn't wash when you lose that amount on the trot.



A team could make just one final and win more titles than you have over the past 4 years. WIN.



You must be scared that if you beat wigan, a formiddable wire lie in wait, or even bogey team leeds and a 5th defeat on the bounce is a prospect.

Correct,

Wigan lost 11 - 3 to Oldham in 1910, Oldham 20 - 7 in 1911, Huddersfield 13 - 5 in 1912, and Huddersfield 29 - 2 in 1913.



And before anyone asks, I didn't do the matchday reports.





But it's good of Saints fans to admit there was a game of Rugby League prior to 1996.

You were there though

Do you not think thats a bit disrespectful considering they finished top of the tree with the attack and defence, you may dislike warrington but give credit where it's due

They still aren't our main rivals though are they? They could win a million trophies and Saints will still be our main rival.

maybe in seasons past but certainley this season q:if you had the choice dislikes to one side this season who would you rather face if you had the choice at o/t wire or saints

Saints will ALWAYS be Wigan's MAIN rival. They may not be their title rivals but they will always be the team the fans want to beat most. (see Man Utd and Liverpool)

you didnt answer the question
