We might not be Super League but we try our best to be as good as we can be given who and what we are.
Im quite sure everybody appreciates the new relationship with you guys as it can only be a good thing with the great amatuer talent around this borough but does Sean Wane actually take this annual fixture seriously??
What was gained by your young/fringe/squad players today?? dominated all over the park and made to look woeful at times. These young guys are clearly decent players in the making but are they thrown to the lions year in year out against a very experienced allbeit inferior/seasoned Leigh team?
Do you think you should be fielding a stronger team and making the game more of a spectacle? granted if you fielded your first 13 the scores would have been undoubtedly reversed but would it have been a good local derby and a nice warm up for your first team? would it have been more use than today?
Genuine post as i think an annual Wigan V Leigh derby with strong line ups would do both teams a world of good.
Just a quick word on the Wigan/Leigh relationship. A few years ago a friend and I went to support Leigh in a championship playoff game. We both wore our Wigan shirts and stood in amongst the Leigh faithful. Despite taking some obvious stick for wearing the Wigan colours, the banter was great and our support was much appreciated by the Leigh speccies and we had a great time. We even risked a quick chorus of 'you're just a small town in Wigan' remarkably without much success! Haha. I think the relationship between the two clubs is the best it's ever been and there's no reason it shouldn't continue to be developed to the benefit of both clubs.

If you don't bother to go to the game when you live in the locality then you are not really a fan and therefore your views are invalid. It's simple.:icons39ad_files/4821-1859san_c-msnicons.jpg
