Just read his article in this weeks League Weekly and this part intrigued me:-
''The challenge facing the Wigan chairman Ian Leneghan and the enterprising marketing department at the DW stadium is to come up with a one-off kit for the match that allows St George to wear their famous red V- just as Leneghans predecessor Maurice Lindsey recognised the importance of allowing Manly to wear maroon back in 1987, when Wigan turned into Canterbury for the night.''
Firstly he clearly does not remember Wigan wearing Cherry and White on one of their most famous nights!
But is a one off kit a good idea for the game, maybe auction it off after the game like the Catalan kit? I dont think St George play in anything other than White and Red.

If we had a mainly red kit, then we kill two bird with one stone. Firstly, a kit that looks fricking great, and also no clash with the mainly white St George kit.

Another classic from Andy Wilson. Mind you, I doubt he was even born in 1987. Which explains a lot about his attitude to the game in general. |

Hopefully our new home kit will be simple cherry and white hoops with the away kit the same in blue. I'd be quite happy to play in blue and white hoops even if its at DW.

St George do have a change strip , it just happens to be red and white hoops . I personally can't see the problem with them both in their first choice kits , wigans kit is predominantly red with white hoops and St George All white with a red cheveron , there is no real Clash, it's just the modern era of the sponsor demanding the use of a change strip to help sales .

Why on earth do they let a side have red and white as a home kit, and a different variation of red and white for an away kit  We could just both play in our away kit then, like Leeds and Warrington should have done in the CC final. Having said that a special WCC kit might be a good money spinner, I know I'd buy one if they made replicas, especially if we won! |

Why dont we just wear our away kit?
Secondly, im sure of more interest to fans is can IL challenge the RFL's insane pricing for events and can season ticket holders have their own seats, despite it being an RFL game.
Lastly, Andy Wilson once again proves he is a tool.

Aussie teams dont seem to like using any other colours than their traditional ones. Look at South Sydney- home kit is green and red hoops with black side panels. away kit is green and red hoops with white side panels Those crazy aussies

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

| I think a kit for the occasion would be great. Make it really retro.
I'm pretty sure we wore Cherry and White for every WCC though |

That's because nothing clashes with their traditional colours and the red and green is very much their 'brand' so they really want to emphasise it.
