Quote: Bilko "They'll all think we play the mud wresting variety of rugby which would really ruin the pitch (as seen at Headingley).'"


So what's the reasoning behind Bradfords pitch???

Didn't they film a movie on it in the winter or something?

It's just great being hated for being a supporter of your local team....:7407.jpg



Typical BBC, lazy journo,

"Wigan Warriors rugby league team have contributed to the decline of the surface"

then the club state:

"It's got absolutely nothing to do with the rugby league club," he added. "That's completely irrelevant.

Clueless morons. Nice to see someone from the foozeball club talking sense.

It's a well known fact that the union fatties have caused 100% of the damage at our place. Given that league's caused no damage whatsoever at ours, it's highly unlikely that it's the cause of the damage at the JJB.

It's just WIGAN, nothing else. Get rid of that stupid nickname.:12150.jpg



Somebody can't spell 'relaid'.
Is it the BBC or the club spokesperson?
Because 'relayed' means something else...

When Maurice sold me to Leeds something changed, it just not the same, the passion inside me just wasn’t the same as running out at Central park for my hometown club. We need a change of culture here; we don’t want to be just happy with playing ok on Saturday at St Helens. Ill make sure that from now on things will change, that players will be under pressure and will train a lot harder than they have before. Shaun Wane 8/10/09 "WE HAVE ACHIEVED WHAT YOU CAN ONLY EVER DREAM OF" WIGAN RLFC The Mirror 30/10/09 How the Premier League table would look if teams were awarded points for famous fans... 20th: Wigan The Latics don't have any fans, yet alone any famous ones.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_29281.jpg



Well i think Wigan Athletic deserve a great big [sizeWELL DONE!!! [/sizeIts about time somebody from either club stopped the lazy journalism, thanks pal whoever you are.

I'm totally not bothered by it all, we know that Latics we eventually be relegated and all the fans will disappear to support United and City again and natural order will be restored. £20 a ticket for Premier league football(the most popular league of the most popular sport in the world) and only averaging 12,000 home fans per week is not good foundations for a club. And thats not including the 3 home games before Xmas at £1 a ticket.

Dan Sarginson: "This is a fantastic opportunity for me to join the biggest name in the competition" 18/10/2013 Tony Clubb: "This is a new exciting chapter of my life signing for Wigan and I couldn't be happier" 18/10/2013 Romain Navarrete: “I’m very happy to have signed for Wigan Warriors. As soon I knew that Wigan were interested, they were the only team that I wanted to sign for. To me, Wigan is the biggest Club in Rugby League and it will be an honour to pull on the famous Cherry-and-White jersey next year. I look forward to working with Shaun Wane and the players at Wigan.”:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10172.jpg

Stevo on a Craig Smith intersept, "that was like throwing tomato seeds out of a moving train window and coming back a year later and tomatoes have grown!" Eddies reaction, "I don't know what he's been taking but i wants some" Wayne Rooney, meanwhile, says he has failed to be gripped by England's rugby union World Cup bid. "I've not seen it," said the England striker. "I've been watching the rugby league.":26079.jpg



its ok when they get relegated we will then be the prioity sport and then we can start blaming them and their terrible oppositions in the championship for wrecking our pitch! icon_wink.gif c020.gif

If they went into the Championship, could they play games at LSV as that would be be big enough to house all their "genuine" fans as their premier league muppets "fans" would have disappeared

Officially RLFAN's most Doe-eyed Happy Clapper. Big Steve wrote: The Internet has provided some wonderful creativity, opportunities and knowledge sharing but it has also given a worldwide forum for people you would leave a full pint behind in the pub to avoid having to listen to them. aboveusonlypie... 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



Could make matters worse, as i'm sure there are more teams in the what i knew as "The second division".
