I understand your point however i lived in the North East until I was 14 and up until that point I didn't know Rugby League existed, Gateshead Thunder certainly didn't!
I moved to Warrington 18 years ago and was introduced to Rugby League a short time later.
I have actually lived in Warrington longer than I did in the North East and this is my home, I have adopted it Warts and all.
So with Gateshead not existing when I lived in the North East do you still stand by your statement?
I was going to write on my previous post that im sure that there are valid reasons why you and cockney support warrington.
I have no problems at all with you supporting warrington, im glad that warrington as a town has provided you with something great that you didn't have in your life when you lived in the north east.
However, i still stand by my point that born and bred wires have a tad more passion and pride in there rugby team. This is no slight on you or cockney its just my opinion. And for the record i am a born and bred warringtonian.
