I was upset we never got any Edith Piaf tunes.

After witnessing first hand the behaviour of Catalans Supporters and players last season in France and now them signing a homophobic religious zealot I can’t ever imagine them being my ‘second team’ again.

And they have the two Wigan rectums.

What is the National dress and which local produce should be worn to show support for Toronto? Drench ourselves in Maple syrup?

When they (Sintellins) come, maybe we could get a hologram of the late Jim Bowen with the Challenge Cup, saying "look what you could've won".

Eamon no brows will be seen to mutter "Robbed, we were. Bloody robbed"

Tomorrow we'll leave a picture of the Super League trophy for you with the caption "look what you've never won".

And I’m sure there’ll be a picture waiting for you of the challenge cup with the caption “look what you could’ve won!”

Or “look what you’ve won a lot more than Wire have”


You could leave a picture of the Challenge cup, LLshield, WCC, old championship, premiership or Superleague Trophy, they all work.....

Reminds me of that Challenge Cup semi where Wigan drew Catalans and the pie-eating RFL tried to rig it as a home game for Wigan by playing it at the HJ.

It was amazing how many Catalans fans turned up that day, the RFL had underestimated the size of the Catalans community in Warrington.

Is that the game when the Warrington player and captain Lee Briers stood in the crowd, with a Catalans kit on ?
