Serves them right for losing the amount of moaning they have done about the weekend. Perhaps they should have spent more time on working on the training pitch than in the media room.

the majority of st helens fans are born in wigan a fact that makes me smile!

you live in wigan, support your local team

All of my immediate family, my wife and her family, and many of my friends were born in St Helens at Cowley Hill, or at Whiston (that well known St Helens suburb) neither of which are in Wigan. You, like the pie-munchers, need to develop your geographical knowledge and awareness

I don't see why people hate Saints, they have a good philosophy, play attacking rugby and develop young players. Yes some of their supporters are irritating when they go round being idiots basking in the success of the Saints players and coaches, but we would have the same kind of idiots if we were successful so you just ignore them.

It's more Prescot, but I get your drift.........however, to be fair to St Helen's folk, their town is so small and insignificant they don't even have their own postcode, a small part is the Liverpool code, and the majority is covered by the mighty WA code, so in theory they are just a small village in Warrington...
