| i agree wholeheartedly about les boyd,he was a magnificent world class player,we were lucky to have him in the team,he was a legend in oz before he came,perhaps for the wrong reasons,but for us,it was for the right reason.i had the invitation one wigan game,to visit the players lounge after the game,les boyd played(mid week game)and we stuffed em.it was a packed room,the room was half lit,the locals were enjoying the food and drink,it was a lovely ambience chatting to the players of both teams.the wigan fans were downish but very decent in defeat.in the left corner was the door down to the dressing rooms.it opened slowly,a shaft of white light lit the edge of the room,first the shadow appeared,the room hushed as the great man slowly walked in.the room which was full,parted,like in biblical times,a passage through the throng straight to the bar opened.and as he landed at the bar,the barman handed les.a pint he took without breaking stride(without paying too)and sat at one of tables. the chatter of nervous people started again.they knew that here was a true legend.my companion a former wigan capt.said"bloody hell,if he wants two pies he can have 'em."such things add to the legend that was les boyd.

| For me it was always Paul Bishop, purely for his impudence, and Sir Les..no explanation required.

This isn't about the "best" player it's about favourite player and there is an obvious reason why Andy Greg would not be considered a favourite however good he was.

Hooky, my fave player again has to be John Woods, the bloke had so much Class and seemed to glide over the pitch when running,not just a great player then but my fave player.As for Andy G?I suppose the reason you mention has something to do with the way he left the Club for Wigan?
