I didn't start watching RL in 96, pretty sure it's older than 20 years old this game.

Saints fans selective memory, another reason...thanks for reminding me.

Re: Aww Bless Em : Sat Feb 13, 2016 8:45 pm  
Success can be measured in many ways and is subjective from a fan's perspective. If I was a Wigan fan I would take pride in the clubs overall achievements and arguably being the he most famous rugby club in the world. Saints fans will measure success in terms of the superleague as it trumps Wigan and certainly trumps us although jammy grand final win aside, Saints haven't won anything since 2007 apart from the St Helens Star team of the week. In recent years since 2007 we've had some success with 3 cc wins and 2 gf finals so we're not so much of a pathetic club portrayed by the deluded stains fans who are living in the early naughties.

Over many many years being Wire and rugby league fan, I've noticed that stains fans by far contain a conspicuous element of arrogance and like more than anyone to take the mickey, which is fine. But when the shoe is on the other they can't take it, and even worse don't understand why many Wire fans take great pleasure in seeing a boring misfiring stains side containing players with less flair than those found on a table football pole.

Remember the number of complaints when Sky unwrapped the shield then re wrapped it and took it down the tunnel.

More so because it was us, their insignificant neighbours embarrassing them on live TV.

Everyone thought it hilarious...Saints fans complained in numbers, absolute whoppers.

Really bias supporters on the Red V site so bitter and twisted about anything Wigan and Shaun Wane, at least Shaun has had half his team since they were about 12, Kes dosn't know half of his!


This is amazing :lol:
I posted this earlier on before I even saw this thread:
"...same goes for those of you who think the (more successful in SL) Saints are jealous, as you seem to constantly mention they MUST be obsessed with you whenever they talk about their closest rival"
I think Im beginning to see which club is obsessed with the other haha
(hint: its the one with 3 GF wins not 5)
