In fairness that's nothing to do with the rugby gods and everything to do with being incredibly successful - you're a Wigan fan, you can remember what being incredibly successful is like, just think back 17 years or so...

And for someone from Leeds to question stadia is laughable, how's the South Stand rebuild coming on?
When will the Western terrace be finished?
When's the North Stand/cricket stand going to be started?
Has the pitch been relaid yet?'"
Headingley may not be the best stadium in RL but at least it's a RL stadium.

And it's ours. It's happily sat in the "assets" part of our financial accounts. Wigan's has "Sam Tomkins move to Sarries", then "nil".

| Whilst new and much better stadiums are great for the sport i think its important to keep one or two 'oldies' in the league that has history. With Castleford and Wakefield hoping to move to new stadiums in the future (lets not have a debate about that particular subject) then the number of historical grounds will dwindle further. It would be great if the South Stand and Western Terrace could be brought up to the same quality of the Eastern Terrace/Carnegie Stand sometime in the new future. If/When they do i think it'll be right back up to one of the top stadiums as you'll have great Stands mixed with the history and atmosphere.

| Quote: Leeds Thirteen "They dont , Clarke will have to live with his comments alone .
Leeds fans do remember a large number of Wigan fans wishing career ending injury on their stand-off however .
Thankfully not one Leeds fan has wished the same on Tommy .'"
I dont think its the first time we have had this sort of thing from a SECTION of Wigan fans,does anyone remember Lee Crooks getting jeered and baited when he was being taken off after a serious injury?
Regarding Headingley being redeveloped,I thyink they are going to coninue to get wet through on the western terrace for many years yet.

Salford don't own their new ground.

| Back to the original thread topic, looks like Tommy has a broken leg - clean - so should be back in action in 8 weeks. Good luck for his recovery.

| Quote: MjM "The problems and delays in developing one's own stadium are nothing compared to the problems of not having a stadium of one's own to develop. Fortunately Leeds have been able to put a little aside over recent years so we aren't in Wigan's position.
How much would you boys give not to be shacked up as tenants in a football stadium, taking none of the non-RL income and being bossed around by Dave Whelan? How much would you have given to have been able to redevelop Central Park rather than where you are now? I can imagine the answer will be a protestation of how happy you are with your current arrangements. But we know that's not true.'"
Quite.
The point being that having your own stadium allows one to gain income from it, rather than fork out for it.
However so humble, there's no place like home etc.
