Just want to say, I among other Wigan fans appreciate the fact that you observed the minute's silence so well, unfortunately a few Hull fans and some people in boxes in the Wigan end ruined it which I was surprised about.

Also, your fans were very gracious in defeat last night, with many approaching a lot of other Wigan fans and shaking hands and congratulating us as we were leaving. It was a really nice touch. Let's hope next year's Grand Final is a repeat of this one!

Continue posting antagonistic rubbish like this, in response to a normal thread, and you'll have to make do with RedVee. Carlos.

We have had plenty of practice in recent years.

The last train Back to Blackpool last night was rocking. Such a laugh with the majority of wigan fans having a laugh with a pocket of us Saints fans.

And if anyone else was on it, we were the ones starting the fleetwood chants lol

Actually, I thought a few pi££ed up idiots (the type who only go to the finals and drink all day) would tarnish all of us Saints fans. However, as mentioned in multiple threads, Saints fans were impeccable. A credit to the club.

We do have a reputation for being gracious in defeat too (ask Hudds and Hull fans). I would hope that is because, generally, we realise how lucky we are / have been with our success over the last 15 years.

Too much, hopefully it changes soon!

I'm getting totally sick of Wiganers on here patronising us about whether we would keep the bloody minute's silence. We were impeccable and that's because we have a great set of fans, not because we owe Wiganers anything.

Go away.

Your own fans expressed concerns about the minute's silence, so it's hardly patronising is it?

She came here and was pleasant in her posting and you tell her to go away.

You've taken this really badly haven't you.

Ignore her (saintsfan), we do.

I was surprised that the noise did come from the Wigan end. I am sure that there would have been a character assassination of Saints fans if this Hull fan had been sitting in the Saints end. Sky did a good job of turning down the sound so that the inevitable drunken idiots were not given a voice.
