The few times I've seen Crosby he's always given stupid penalties away.
You bag McGure but praise Mcllorum, I know who I'd regard as a horrible excuse of a man & it's not McGuire.

Horrible excuse for a man?

You're still sore over the 2010 incident, and don't bother trying to deny it. The reality is, ever since Michael Maguire rolled into town wigan have been of the most cynical, niggly teams in the league and despite his exit 2 years ago some of those habits persist. It's sadly one of the less desirable qualities in what is a tremendously well drilled efficient team.

2 in 2012, 10 in 2013 and 3 so far this season.
McIlorum will give somebody a crack and stand up to them McGuire will do it third man or off the ball and then run. Did you see the interview with George Burgess about the England squad when they asked him who was the toughest player in the squad?

Quite but not the toe to toe hard man you paint him as, more like a very dirty off the ball cheap shot merchant.

McGuire is a half back and a very good one. Nowt wrong with a bit of devil in that. I saw Gregory and Edwards behave exactly the way you describe McGuire and much worse beside.

Seriously, we're actually gonna do this? Funny you mentioned doing something off the ball and running, that's exactly what 'mac' get's sent off for in the above link which completly discredits your ''opinion''.

No doubt if mcguire had been guilty of what McIlorum was in the above vid you, and the rest of the pie eaters, would be calling for the death penalty, by lethal injection.

I'm sure Kirk Dixon thinks he's a "tough" guy too

That's different, they were pie eaters.

OH for the days when it was just us and Saints

You wouldn't really like that would you?
Actually you probably would, they made it easy for you, we won't.

I am surprised at your comments about McGuire, your postings on this foroum are usually well balanced and fair.
Certainly McGuire is not the 'niggly hit and run player you describe ' as for the penalty ratio it reflected what went on in the game. I have no complaints about the Wigan tackling by and large it was within the rules, but I don't like a third or fourth player coming into the tackle and hurtling into a stationary player,especially when the tackle is completed.
All teams have adopted this tactic,but Wigan seem to be the masters of this tactic.

Pure comedy gold. Still, I suppose you lot have got form for this sort of thing, Hock was a saint until he left...



Post proof or retract and save what little credibility you have left.

Still bitching about a professional foul from three years ago? You do like to live in the past in your village, don't you?
