Respect your opinion! but I still think he could have been treated better after playing in all those cup games. |

It paid off as we held the challenge cup up. He knew deep down he was never going to keep his place.
It's like Gaskell now, he came in and showed form to suggest he's going to be very good player but can't get a look due to hohaia but Gaskell has stuck with us (so far) and knows times on his side. |

To be fair Goulding and Lance are so far apart, that they are on different planets.

I'm trying to point out to the poster that every coach in rugby league would have put bobbie back in for the final. He was the heart beat of our team, our main man. It's not like he was coming back from injury and could have broke down.
I'm also saying, maybe lee should have stuck it out a little longer and maybe would have broke in to the side. He was only young kid. |

You'd have to say that Gaskell and smith aren't exactly inspiring signings, added to tge likes of gelling and the trogs and Wigan do seem to be going for mediocrity. Ok while the team is dull of confidence, but when the bubble bursts they will be found out.'"
Nice when you've GOT A BUBBLE TO BURST THOUGH!
 Rock 'n' Roll. |

Exactly, when saints look back we will see many challenge cups, super leagues, grand finals, league leaders shields, world champions.
When lee looks back he will see two challenge cups and one league leaders shield.
I think we made correct choice myself. |

Our Bubble was bigger when it burst though. Yours has barely left the bubble pot. Ours had been growing for years.

The real Wigoon bubble burst was back in the 90's though when it all came out just how skint you were . (The price of beating part timers to meaningless titles)

| Quote: sally cinnamon "Why don't you finish the story...a drunk Briers helped Warrington beat Huddersfield 60-4 that day and went on to win their second consecutive Challenge Cup at Wembley. Not bad for a boozed up halfback who wastes his talent.
Or maybe Briers just looks good because he plays in a world class side?'"
What's that got to do with anything? The point is that a supposed top class professional sportsman was on the lash up to the very last possible minute he could get away with before dashing over the Pennines (undoubtedly while over the legal limit...) to get to an uber important game in his team's season. Nobody's doubting Brier's talent and I'd have him in a Saints shirt next season in a heartbeat - the point being made was his professionalism (and basic common sense while we're at it) and that is demonstrably open to question to say the very least... He'd be a darn sight better player undoubtedly with a just little application of either/both sense and professionalism. |

That 10 years of cheating your way to all those trophies was well worth your club now sleeping rough on the streets of Wigan, begging cap in hand to Latics for a cup of tea and a warm place to sleep every now and then, eh? |

Not a bad attempt at trolling , the old ones are the best after all. The thing with Wigoon fans is , even when you were skint and homeless (I suppose Orrell counts as a home) you always maintained your arrogance and deluded view of the world.
