Welcome Quins Kitties born 02.04.09 -
Purdo - Determined, loveable with a "can-do" attitude. A born leader.
Louie - Big, white and fluffy. A very noisy prop forward.
Harley- Cute and gorgeous (just like our no.9) Well, I couldn't call her Chad, could I?
Update on Quins Mogs :-
Purdo - deffo leader amongst Mogs. The Capo.
Louie - turned out to be more like Louie Spence than LMS. Re-named Judas.
Harley - Cute but not as gorgeous as our no.9.
Oh well, at least I haven't got a Willy.:simpsons/017.jpg |

Good point, but if I were DH, I would have already done it! 
Actually, maybe he already has...who would blame him?

According to club site tickets are from RFL direct - club presumably can't be bothered selling them direct

There'll be plenty of Leigh/St Helens fans there cheering you guys on if we win tonight. If you do get to the final, I'd hope that all the neutrals will be supporting you then as well, as I know I would be.

Playing devils advocate, if Wigan do win tonight, it might be argued that is better to make a few hundred fans travel 200 miles than it is to make a few thousand....

This just about sums up Nigel's marketing skills at Red Hall, when you get 7,800 at Warrington V Huddersfield, he had to find the smallest stadium available, even if it is just a walk from Wigan, he will be Praying tonight that the Warriors win! |

What is idiotic from the RFL is to play the match in a Stadium with poor public transport links. That should rule out Leigh automatically
I'm not disappointed with the decision to play near Wigan but why not Widnes or St Helens? It would be a three hour trip almost anywhere so it doesn't make a lot of odds to me to travel, as I do anyway.
If it is near the Pies a crowd of about 10,000 will come and our club will pocket 5,000 lots of £20 or so = £100,000 plus TV money.
If we played in e.g. Huddersfield then the gate would be lower, maybe only a few thousand, especially as the Pies are arrogant enough to think they are automatically in the final already.

Being a Leigh fan, it's horrid that the Pies will be playing (currently beating Widnes 42-4) at Leigh. But we are one of the largest town's in Europe with out a train station. Surely St.Helens/Warrington/Widnes (now they are not involved) or even Salford would have made more sense. You guys will be impressed with the stadia (for a championship club using it) BUT maybe the LSV charged less for using it, than the other's. But it looks like it's been done to ensure as many Pies as possible will be there, being only a 7 mile trip for them, or a short walk for Leigh 'Wiganners' ! Anyway....ALL THE BEST V PIES !!!

It should be at a more accessible venue than Leigh, which is ridiculous. But no one has answered my point: should 10000 Wiganers travel 200 miles or should 500 Broncos fans?
