Thank you Madge, he showed a bit of emotion when he came across to say goodbye to the fans, I'm sure he has enjoyed it at Wigan and I hope when the time is right for him he will come back, I just detect there is unfinished business, it's just a pity he could not have stayed a couple more seasons and built his own team.
Don't think any Wigan fan will have a bad word against him, he has turned the club round big style in two seasons.
Hope the next coaching staff can carry it on.
Was great to see madge and his management team enjoy a few light ales last nite well and truly deserved thanks madge for two great seasons and putting Wigan RL back on the map plus two trophies
What MM & the back room team have achieved in 2 years is phenomenal. Let's remember, although we made semi-finals before then we were nearly always underdogs & never really looked like we had the consistency to win anything. Whereas under Madge, it's only really the last month where we've had any disappointment - and it was always going to happen eventually, you can't win everything all of the time (well, not anymore, anyway!)
End of the day, if you'd asked any Wigan fan 2 years ago "would you take a GF win & a CC win in the next 2 years" we'd have bitten their hand off. Amazing job. Thanks a million.
