What I don't get is the immense dislike that Saints fans have for Warrington. I have supported Warrington for 30 years and for 25 of those years we were poop or close to it.

Where I work there are Saints fans that become rabid & frothing at the mouth at the mere mention of The Wire. I really don't get it.

Similar to what St Pete mentioned above. Quite a few Warrington Fans get ahead of themselves and start baiting well before they win anything, they have been telling us with gusto that they will be superleague champions for 4 years now.
This season Warrington have been excellent, good enough for the title and I hope they do, the problem is a lot of wire fans will probably give the win much more value than the Leeds and Saints wins totalled together.
Obviously the claims are in the "Success of the Moment" but it quite often extends into long periods of arrogance

I think Warrington are good team, I like Tony Smith and also like some of your players but being brutally honest Warrington ain't the great team the fans think they are.

Some of this i can agree with but dont tar us all with the same brush.

It would be something if the Saints came to hate us so much they were forced in to supporting the pies

Re: Wigan or Warrington? : Sun Sep 29, 2013 2:23 pm  

Every Saints v Wigan game I've ever watched I have wanted Saints to win, I even hate Wigan winning the coin toss.

Why is this warringtons reign?

Fair enough if you was winning Grand finals, challenge cups and World Club championships like saints Leeds bulls have in the super league era, then I could put up with it but your not and haven't.

Re: Wigan or Warrington? : Sun Sep 29, 2013 3:23 pm  

Some Warrington fans can be irritating there's no doubt about it especially some of the idiots in the South Stand, and for some reason some do take an extreme disliking to us (maybe because we've haunted them over the years?) but there is no way in hell I want Wigan to win this game.

Wigan have now hit the heights of the 1990's level of arrogance and for that I want Warrington to win. Plus I can't handle Wigan winning the double with Green and Smith as their halves. Surely there isn't a worse 6 and 7 to win SL should they do it than those two?!

Re: Wigan or Warrington? : Sun Sep 29, 2013 3:33 pm  

In my head there are arguments against both teams winning it, so tbh I'm not fussed who wins. Whoever wins, we are going to get their fans polishing themselves dry about how they've won the double or that it's finally been their year. Seeing as I'll be sat closer to the Warrington fans, it wouldn't be great to be caught up in their celebrations!

I'm hoping for a great match.

I think it's because the order of things have changed & a lot of Saints fans are struggling to accept that.

For a number of years Saints were top dogs winning Trophies & beating The Wire season after season, but to coin an old phrase 'there's a new Sheriff in town'. All Saints supporters currently have are their memories to keep them going & it's eating some of them up knowing that the team they once ridiculed are way above them & they now realise that it's them & their team that are open to ridicule.
