I assume the opening post is a bit tongue in cheek but Saints do seem to be on a roll and the "Cunningham Out" brigade have got egg on their faces.

A lot will depend on how Warrington and Hull handle the effects of Wembley but there's five more rounds to go yet so plenty of time for the wheels to come off.

Credit Castleford as well for making the Super Eight interesting, Wakefield and Widnes seem to have called it a day.

Have you been reading the St Helens forum? Is comedy at its finest. worlds most fickle fans! At least proper fans like Wigan fans stick with their team through the low periods

Have they stopped, booing, whingeing and screaming and calling the ref names, even though most of the decisions went their way, and they were lucky to still play with 13.
Strange bunch.

Is there an alternative Wigan in a parallel universe that I am not aware of?

If you are the King, I'm joining the Republican movement.

There is no doubting that Saints have found some form but, Wigan have been clinging on in the top echelons of SL for most of the season and Catalan are no barometer of a top team.
The fight for the top 2 spots will be Wire and FC.

2006 (You will remember that season ) Wigan bottom of the league for the majority of the season - Average attendance 14,445

Wigan brought about 17 fans last night which is only about 23 less than they took to the challenge cup semi 2 weeks ago.

For the amount of success and the size of the town Wigan have the worst fans in RL.

It's not like you to be funny, but I have to admit, that's pretty good.

Im hoping they reach the final again only to be beaten by Hull or Cas or anyone really apart from maybe Wigan.
