Stef should be nowhere near the team. I'd rather have Josh Thewlis at FB and his brother on the wing. 

Agree, can’t deny he as been a great player for the club over his time I am also finding it concerning reading reports it’s not ruled out he may yet go another year. I know he as likely played more games this season so far than was probably expected. Meaning if we had not had the injuries we have had he in all likelihood would not have got those games so talk of an extension is odd for me.

Think I would be selecting Wrench on the wing before Jake Thewlis, and maybe even Lindop, but with what happened with Lindop at Wembley he shouldn`t be dropped at the moment.

It's more entertaining than watching us trying to score points.

It's a forum ... no harm done. Neg1 & Neg2 "Fans" have to be questioned occasionally to redress the balance of the forum. 

Attempted to quote karetakerInteresting that you reference people stop posting. One of the reasons I post a lot less is the passive aggressive tone you take whenever someone disagrees with you. 
Smiffy is clearly a glass half full person and while you might not agree with him I don’t think it makes his opinion any less valid.
Take as an example the argument that our attack is a blunt instrument. It clearly has not been particularly effective BUT I would argue this is in a large part down to the constant shuffling of half backs and centre/wing combinations. You will no doubt see that as making excuses. I see it as common sense. 
Finally it strikes me that it is a lot easier as a Wire fan to be negative than positive so Smiffy’s stance is in my view all the more laudable.

Captain Hook ... Get your tin hat out. 

Thing is, Wires71 is actually one of the best posters on here and speaks a lot of sense. Smiffy just can't take the club being criticised. We could be relegated and he'd still think we are prime Wigan in the 1980's. It it quite admirable to be fair.

An easy solution with certain individuals you find  offensive/confrontational is to use the ignore function on here.


I use it and it works OK for me, but other people quoting posts means that it`s not 100% successful.


Give it a try.

I do use that function for some posters, and yes it’s a pain if someone quotes a post of a person you have blocked.
