Just wondering could there be a few HKR shirts among the Wigan fans?

There could be, but there will be some Rovers shirts among the FC fans, as at least one of my Rovers supporting and hallowed Rovers shirt wearing family members is going with their spouse who is a part time FC fan. Unfortunately they were sent down the wrong team path at some point and have never recovered.
They need help, but I fear they are beyond it. Its very sad.

Just to clarify, it is the part time FC fan that needs help, but I suppose it is obvious

Apart from Having a little punt on 1st try scorer I'm ambivalent over Saturdays game. Part of me wants them to get walloped and I remember fc fans smug faces after our loss there.On other hand a few of my more level headed fc supporting friends I wouldn't begrudge their happiness and iv read a few stories of people in very bad health holding on for an fc win so again I'd be happy for them if successful. Saw some highlights of last year's final and it's easy to forget they were 10-0 down with 20 to go.Gidley missed 2 routine kicks then got chinned by own player and left field then they got on a roll.fine margins and all that matters is who lifts the pot .I'm going draw half time then a drop goal either way at end

Don't get sentimental Craig they won it last year anyone who's dying now has already seen them win it so Wigan all the way

Nah. They've had a fair bit to shout about just recently. So a 51-nil win to Wigan would do me just fine.

With us being out of superleague this season I seem to have mellowed a little towards the curly turds but I certainly won't be sad to see them bummed at Wembley

They have shipped big numbers of points 4 or 5 times this year and if Wigan go ahead few score early they may papper their kegs again? But also could see them clicking and winning. Who knows? Who cares? It will be radio Humberside for me so it's better than listening to football
