Quote Urmston Wire="Urmston Wire"It'd be interesting if anyone on here heard this happen, but a Snellenser friend and another friend who knew little about league but was with some Wires apparently had the following convo in the East Stand at Wembley:
Matt (the newbie): Are they chanting Warriors or Wires?
(Dozens of heads on primrose and blue bodies turn in surprise).
Dave The Snellenser: They're chanting Wires.
Matt: But why are they chanting Wires?
(More heads turn)
Dave The Snellenser: Because, Matt, Warrington is a town famed for the manufacture of wire.
Apparently this got quite a good laugh!'"
We were talking about it at Wembley and we couldn`t think of another team in England with a singular name like The Wire,( coz that`s what we are, not Wires imo) Eg The Swans, The Irons, the reds

The canaries, The Robins.....etc
