I was at the match last night and will say I was part of the Boos! and chants aimed at Suarez purely because I was towards the away fans where all the Wigan fans who actually sing sit/stand. To be fair though, I felt as if I had to join in with the chants. However the Liverpool fans were behind Suarez as you'd expect.

"If it's good fun then fair enough, but if it goes overboard there are rules and regulations," Smith warned.

He's not moaning, that's about right, non of Doggie Monas abuse has been overboard, i think he's infering to the abuse Cas gave Thomas.

Sexuality isn't a choice, performing a sex act on a dog is. No comparison between the too.

Not saying there is, i'm saying TS was saying if it's good fun then what's the problem, rugby fans in the main have playful banter and usually most fans don't mind it, Cas overstepped the mark but the majority of the other stuff usually helps create the atmosphere.

I've not heard anything about Doggie that i thought overstepped the mark, most of it was just barking, and like you guys with the Sam Tomkins booing we nullified it by doing it ourselves.

Back on topic

When did you lot last play at the DW, Cats in the playoffs? How is that going to affect a football game 3 months later?

Just wondering if you guys have come up with anything amusing yet regards our signing of Gelling.

But to get back to the original post subject.......OH sod it.

Must be the rugbys fault

Bloody 'ell Mathers.

I'm sure the papers just recycle old articles and just update a few sentences as to make it seem fresh. It always has been and always will be Wigan RL's fault we've got a rubbish pitch. Nothing to do with the fact the stadium is built on marshland and is therefore liable to the effects of that - too reasonable that.

clver that,building a sports ground on marshland .....

But we have an apology - Rugby League hasn't been played on the pitch at the DW for months, I can't be bothered to look up the last match that Wigan played on it, and apparently neither could you. I will however do you a favour. The reason the pitch at the DW stadium is so poor is because it is built on marsh land. At times when there is heavy rain fall in the area, this can lead to the ground becoming saturated, and the water backing up onto the pitch, meaning it cuts up. The brownish stain is also a sympton of this drainage problem.

You're right the last rugby game was played at Wigan's DW Stadium months ago. I wildly overstated the impact rugby has on that grass field. I apologize to the millions of Wigan Warriors fans around the world for doing so. Thanks for educating me, Chris.

Sack the board. IL out. Don't care if it's Christmas, I wanted an announcement to announce that a useless journalist from America was going to announce that Daglish had criticized our pitch
