Missed ten games in four years for us. Incredible really.

Gleeson is a great centre with an outstanding talent. If Wigan/the man himself can fully focus that talent then you could have made a fantasic buy - if not, then you will eventually get as frustrated with him as we have here at Warrington.

If Smith feels that Warrington would be better off without him then who am I to argue?

In Smith we trust!

Quote: Jukesays "I will !

He was seen out round Billinge Last Night in the Billinge Arms!
He then went to Wigan and was seen Down King St!
He later went to Pemps (The Night club Not the T-Shirt Magnets house!)
Followed by a Trip to the Cow shed!
At 6am he was seen stumbling out of Santi Bag with a Vindaloo where he puked, fell unconcious and Sh3t himself!
However he was celebrating the fact that he's got away from Warrington so you can forgive him!

It is also a Known fact that ALL the Warrington fans who chose to ignore the rumours over the last 3/4 years have suddenly now become experts in these so called rumours and see them as FACTS and Wigan fans Vice/Versa!

In the End, just accpet that as it stands, Wigan have got the Better of the deal.

In the Long run, You may get it?

In the Long run we both may be better off!'"

Quote: Bill_Barlow "Ive seen Gleeson in a few messy states but again ive not seen him up Wigan for ages, i dont know whether hes got a new stomping ground or hes settled down. Ive always wanted to see Gleeson in a Wigan shirt, and i know hes always wanted to play for Wigan so nothing a few bitter Wire fans can say will take any polish off this signing.'"


That will be it. His ability will always be tempered by his liking for a hedonistic lifestyle! Mind you he isn't the only one at Warrington but he is certainly the first to be shown the exit door.

I'm glad we have a decent pairing now cause we aint had one in years

We al know what he's like but i'm going to reserve my judgement for a few months see how he goes on at a big club icon_smile.gif

I hope it works out really do but it will take a month or 2 for him to settle in proper

He was bought by Warrington will full knowledge of his extra curricular activities. He was only "shown the door" when £100k was offered.

Love how Wire fans have the "Holier than thou" attitude that Martin has been made an example of, rather than as part of a pure rugby commercial deal.

Looking for any scraps of comfort after a deal that sees them lose a quality international and gain Bloody Hell Mathers...

Anybody who reads the Wire board regularly, will know that Gleeson wasn't the most popular Wire player. Like Briers, many people wanted him shipping out.

Personally, I liked him, and think Wigan have got a very good signing, but it certainly isn't any bitterness from the majority of Wire fans.
Short term, he will be a loss of us, as Johnson will probably be 3, and he isn't anywhere near as good as Gleeson, but long term, I have faith in Smith, and the press release clearly shows that there was an issue.
