One Town.. One Team.. One Love.. The future's bright, The future's Tomkins!! Keep Wigan "Wigan" Especially playing at Wigan which is a real home of Rugby League.”QUOTE : Cameron Smith 27/10/09.:



with a bit of luck half of them won't come back,

Nobby picks his statements to absolute perfection don't he? of all the things to say after the crapest performance of the season he announces that they are hurting so have gone on a jolly. It's so wrong it's laughable. icon_rolleyes.gif

Time fo IL to grow a set and get them all on a tight line!!!!

Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid. Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal. Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_20333.gif



Its really shocking that they allowed to go on holiday after a loss, any player worth their salt will be doing extra training which I bet a few of them will be just a few will be taking the mick and going for a pi55 up.

Simple thing if you win you get the week off if you lose then extra training because we have a massive game at Hull KR the week after. (Shaking head in disbelief)

I really hope some of the players are doing extra training, I can imagine Bailey would be. Lets hope they are eh?

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 knew about it last week.

I can understand the players and club saying have a break. The players will have been told from early season that they where having a week off.

Imagine if you had booked your holidays then been told you couldn't have them.

I posted here rlhttps://forums.rlfans.com/viewtopic.php?t about what should have been done regarding the "holidays"

However, after my anger has died down "a little" I had another think. If I had my holidays booked and then cancelled by my company I would not be motivated for a while.
I'm putting my reasoned head on rather than my fans head here.

So what do you do.

Flog them tho death when they get back, or put your arm round them and give them a cuddle.

A good manager knows who needs what.

How many days are this bunch away on a bender? Our teams fitness isn't great so the last thing they need is a holiday.

I can't quite believe this has happened icon_confused.gif

What other job would allow you to be a continual up and still have your holiday? You'd be expected to sort out your mess, not go off on holiday.

Of course they are entitled to a holiday. And realistically they are playing over summer so this is their only chance.


I would have said "enjoy it though, as you will be working your ar*ses off when you come back".

And in reality those were my thoughts after I'd calmed down on Sunday.

If a job has an 'off season', say like teaching, you are unlikely to be granted a holiday during the season.

Second, if I up at work, I would be expected to make amends, not swann off on holiday.

Well I agree they should absolutely be hauled over the coals and some should lose their places by the sounds of it (I didn't go so can't comment on which ones).

However, it's a long season, everyone needs a break (mentally) and now is the best time.

But the club knew last November that they would have free week, so they and the payers would have made their plans.


Had we won on Saturday I don't think there would have been many complaints.

But we did not win. That is the point. If you screw up, you sort it out. Not go off on holiday. The fact Noble et al allowed this speaks volumes.

They can go off on holiday during the off season.

There would have been a fair few I reckon.

Quote: Jimmy Birts Lives On "A fiver the Evening Post runs a 'my heart bleeds' story about someone like Phil Bailey deciding to stay in Wigan and put some extra hours in down at the gym rather than going away on holiday.'"


I could only wish for something like that. At least it would show that one player at least cares just a little about Wigan RL!
