What does it mean to you to beat Wigan ? : Fri Jan 14, 2011 4:45 pm  
What does it mean to you to beat Wigan ?

Does it make your year ? Does it makes you dance for joy, reach for a kebab, make love to the ... ?

And what's it like losing to the old enemy ?

Do you kick the cat, reach for a stack of kebabs ?

We want to hear from you in 10 to a maximum of 50 words on just what it means to you beating and losing to your fiercest rivals.

The best responses will appear in a feature on derbies planned for the match programme for Millennium Magic which, of course, features the Saints-Wigan derby on Saturday February 12.

So let rip, but no swear words, please.

Look forward to reading them.

Good luck!

Losing to Wigan is the second worse thing that can happen in a season.
Losing in the grand final is the worst.

Losing to Wigan in the grand final would be too much to take... Oh wait :?

If im completely honest. Im glad Wigan are back up with the top teams. They are great games when both teams are on form.
It was Leeds I hated losing to the most for the last couple of years.

But you should have the strength in your squad, so that when injuries occur the guys can step in and do a job, blaming injuries for defeats is condoning your teams woeful performance.

After so many losses to Wigan when they were a full time time team in the late 80's and early 90's,any defeat of Wigan is brilliant,even after all the trouncings we gave them a few years ago.Now they are Champions,it will be even better to beat them. :lol:

When faced with a superior rival in terms of support, history and form I'd be inclined to seek out the easy option too!

Ultras in rugby league? Is there really any need?
