ABW.:



It's virtually a straight copy from a Balmain 80's shirt. I've got one at home, but it appears to have shrunk over the years.

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery....... I will look to the moment, and miraculously, the future will take care of itself. Radio 5 Live, Sat, April 14th, 2007,...Dave Whelan, "In Wigan, rugby will always be king" 'I was certain, positive, convinced, and yet..........unsure' 'It's only rock 'n' roll, but I like it' Worry will not prevent destiny from unfolding.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3632.jpg



Quote: ROBINSON "Why oh why?

We get a bad design like last year and people moan about that, and when we get a good design, people moan about the 'poor quality'.

We get a traditional design and people moan it's 'too safe', and we get one that's a bit inventive and people whinge that it doesn't look like a Wigan shirt.

Then you get people like me who whinge about people whinging.

I'll give over ranting now.'"




I'd like to whinge about you whinging about people who whinge....................................next !!! icon_biggrin.gifOH:

I'd say, it's more like the traditional Cas shirt from the 1960s, possibly earlier.

Super League is going to look great this year.

And at home. Their home strip looks like Whitehaven's shocking effort from some years ago.

Jamie Jones-Buchanan "I'd never forgive myself if a child of mine was born in Lancashire" And neither would any Lancastrian.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_1673.jpg



Quote: Nogga "So you think Ian Leneghan chooses crap quality material for shirts so that they only last a year and then you have to buy a new one?

Do you seriously think Leneghan has anything to do with shirt materials and then picks the cheapest to increase his profit margin??
He, or the commercial team, told the suppliers what they were prepared to pay for them and they down graded on quality to meet the cost. Think this is a justified winge seeing as how they are £47. Really like the design but they have a cheap and tacky feel.

A purple patch inspired on his home ground by man of the match WIGAN CAPTAIN Sean O’Loughlin produced three tries in an eight-minute spell just before half-time, and the GB Lions added two more after the break to maintain Smith’s 100 per cent record as Great Britain coach. Sat 27th April 2002 St Helens 12 Wigan 21 Edinburgh - Sat 4th May 2002 Celtic 2 Rangers 3 Glasgow (Carlsberg dont do weeks, but if they did.....) //www.internationalrugbyleague.net/:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_36409.jpg



Quote: captaindan "Does anyone else on here think that the quality of the new home shirt is sub standard?
Having looked at them in the shop and found that the first three shirts I picked up all had marks on them, I thought that the fabric is cheap and the general quality is very much down on the last few seasons.
Now, I understand if Mr. Lenegan only wants a shirt to last a season, so they can sell us all new ones each year, but £47 for a cheaply made replica shirt is just plain wrong.
I know that many will buy them, I probably will myself as I think the design is brilliant, but it is just another miscalculation as far as I am concerned which may alienate some more fans who think that a desire for a profit margin is becoming more important than giving us a quality product.
When many products in the shop have improved beyond recognition over the last three years, the most important one, our shirt, has just taken a huge leap backwards.
CD'"


TBH i can kinda see where youre coming from... the shirt IS good quality but not the thick hessian type fabric Kooga have been doing for us in the last 4 seasons, this is better material for wearing during the summer really, kinda football top material but just a tad better quality! Yeah, the badge is a dissapointment for sure but its still a cracker all round, me and Rogues were feeling a guy up in the pub last saturday with it on and even though he was getting aroused we both got a good feel of it (the shirt) we were chuffed with it and everyone else was complimenting it.

Youll love it once you buy it icon_biggrin.gif

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled. For 27 - 0 you get a trophy For 75 - 0 you get sod all. Wigan had eight in a row Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg

i do remember that
You'll have your choice of home and away now mate but sadly I won't be modelling the away.

On a side note check it before you leave. I took one back because it has blue marks on the front and my mums took my nephews Xmas pressie back today because that's got a mark on the back.
