Talk about obsessed. It seems like you are infatuated with him.
I have read this messageboard for years and seemingly every other post from you has been slagging off Goulding. This is no matter how well he has played and is even when a thread has nothing to do with him, such as when another player is being criticised. He has only just turned 21 now for gods sake and despite this you still give him grief and never praise him. You have been doing this for ages and were criticising him in previous seasons when he was even younger than Ainscough and Tomkins are now.
It is strange though how you dont do it with any other young player or indeed any other Wigan player. Did he bully you at school or something or is it jealousy because he signed for Wigan and not you because it is obvious that it is something. Whatever it is it is a pity that you cant judge him fairly as a player because of whatever has happened in the past.
