Can't wait for you to have a couple of defeats then moan in the season about quality signings not been made to much youth etc. On the Kr dig- Dixon, donaldson, mccarthy, Goulding all signed and English. Hallet, green, ollet,gudzeck, cox, carlile, walker and salter all under 25, english and first team squad. Then lets not forget the over 25 Englishmen such as cockayne, welham etc. But you have a really valid point there.

due to us having no fans, we can't afford quality big name signings like everyone else, we also put a lot of faith in our system in developing players rather than just buying them.

it also gives the fans ( or lack of them) something to feel proud about when half the team have been developed by our club rather than another club, to answer the wigan fan, who surely must take immense pride in their system of developing local players, and rightly so!

thought the same, obviously thrown in at prop when you was lacking players at that time.

Quote: Aboveusonlypie "Genuine question this - What's the big deal about signing or producing British players?

I mean at Wigan we produce more than most, but it doesn't give you any extra points when the game kicks off.

I never understand this attitude that signing local lads is best. I just like to see good players play for Wigan, and I don't really mind where they come from.

When Blake Green goes back to Aussie next year we will replace him with a Wigan trainee. All very laudable. But most Wigan fans would rather see a like for like replacement.'"


we are trying to catch up with the aussies, best way to do this is by playing our young british players at the highest level, its a shame a lot wont get the chance to gain experience and show what they can do due to an overseas import being infront of them.

now relegation is back on the agenda, it seems to are the imports, shame as it seemed to be going the right way, at least some clubs are still trying to improve the UK game and help build the international game, the world cup proved there is an appetite for it.

Our current squad. Cockayne dixon,walker,carlile,goulding,hopefully myler and lunt all british, welham,salter horne,cox,green,ollett,esslemont,guzdek,hallett,robinson all currently in our squad,all played s/l, marsh and holker in the squad and all came through our system,richard horne,john wilkin also josh hodgson,scott taylor,and dont forget we were the last club to join s/l in 2007 and IMO we have done ok.
Now about your lack of support bearing in mind ken davey virtually gives you a season pass and a lot of your players came through your system,which you say is what is wanted,why the lack of support for a reasonably successful side ? icon_thumb.gif

None of the hornes came through at kr neither did Hodgson, you must be a SL era kr supporter only, as you don't seem to remember that far back, or unless your real name is Nemo? icon_surprised.gifops:

And cudjoe, Lawrence, mcgillvary, Connor, leeming and Johnson!

With regards to players that have 'jumped ship' to Hull Kr.
Carlile, walker, Hodgson and Eden. All regulars for us weren't they!!!

And referring to Lunt and Myler as your British players is embarrassing.

Eden and hodgson were regulars the season before they signed for kr .... Walker should have been he's the best of the lot. Stand corrected about the new some lads but hudds are hardly a conveyor belt of talent as brierley claims .... I'm sure the fans would take a couple of Brett hodgson a on board if it could stop you choking at the business end of the season
