we got one over the pies in a final.remember beating them on own turf in 86 with paul bishop landing 5 drop goals and 2009 at widnes but they were both semi finals..no doubt saint eddie will tells us on saturday

36 years ago at St Helens . Lancashire Cup. 26-10. The Tommy Martyn final. I think we have lost about 6 finals to Wigan since then

I wouldn't be surprised if Eddie will still be chewing over last weeks bone & reminding all God fearing Wire fans that we shouldn't even be in the final.
I for one will not be listening.

Make that 7 defeats

Lost 1985 final Lancs Cup
Lost 1987 final Lancs Cup
Lost 1987 final John Player
Lost 1995 final Regal Trophy
Lost 1987 final Premiership Final
Lost 1990 final Challenge Cup
Lost 2013 final Grand Final Super League

Yes I was fed up in 87, we got them in so many finals. I went every one plus league fixtures and the Locker cup.i think we might have won the Locker Cup for what it was worth. I've hated them more than any other team ever since, before that period it was Widnes

To my knowledge we have never won a game at Old Trafford.

That's a lot of hurt, I sadly attended all of those.

correct 87 we got nilled there by wigan depite gary sanderson having a try chalked off for accidental off side(bloody refs) and a few years back when half our team ended up in a & e..hopefully we`ll make amends on saturday..

so did i and theres a few semi final defeats in those years as well..its fair to say we owe the buggers one

I think its fair to say the majority of FC fans will be shouting for you. Apart from one or two sour individuals you've been very gracious in your praise of our lads. Good luck on SAturday.

Same here. I sometimes wonder just what we would have won throughout the 80's/early 90's had wigan not been the overwhelmingly dominant force that they were.

Not only did they beat us in the finals but they took our best players. The only player they could not take from us was Mike Greg. The strange thing was they could not beat us in league in 1987
