Not at all arrogant Cherry, it's a friendly versus a weak Pie side (yet again) Would rather Leigh played a '1st choice' championship xiii in a friendly, than this pointless fixture year in, year out. Guess the attendance will be OK, but why not send your 'strongest' line up, rather than excuses about your England players only just returned to training.

Pity about Hansen - I bet he was really looking forward to playing against his former team. Barlow also missing. We can't really turn out any of our youngsters - Harper excepted - as we haven't got a reserve grade team in 2016!

Still think it's a pretty strong Wigan side, given some of the restrictions on their selection - i.e. injuries, operations, players starting late, following international duty.

Hopefully a good, competitive game.

How are they excuses? Why would we pick our best players for a meaningless friendly? It obviously means a lot to you though.

This fixture means more to leigh than it does to Wigan, its pointless to me and doesn't achieve anything other than to rob the fools who are willing to pay £20 to see it. I subscribe to Wigan TV so if its on there then i will watch it but to have to pay to watch it......i think not.

To be fair I think you are right Wigg'n this fixture will always mean more to us as we don't get a lot of chances to play sides like Wigan very often I am afraid.

Would be great if you were back in Super League...

I still can't work out how they so comprehensively screwed up the promotion run. Having the Leithers in the top tier is probably overdue (I actually quite like the odd bowl of lobby now & again).

But those fools you are alluding to are true Wigan fans who truly want to follow their team.

You are obviously not one of them.

Cheers mate, yes it would be brilliant for us but as yet still a dream, but we live in hope.

We cannot work it out either CyberPieMan.

Do you have pie above you???

Will you be going?

Not at 45 quid for the 3 of us i wont. But then again, i am a category 351826528225 fan so my opinion doesnt count......

Well fair enough, put yourself in category 351826528225 or whatever. But to say those who do go are fools like hatty states, is totally wrong.

I will watch the game on Wigan tv as I stated, however what I will not do is pay £20 to Leigh for the same privelage. You don't know me so you can't question my reasoning but let's put it this way, I've been supporting Wigan for alot longer than I've been posting on this forum. I find it extremely irritating when leythers come on this board demanding as to what we should be doing with regards to a pointless friendly.
