You are very lucky. I've been waiting still 1996, when we had the last great side. The lower moment for me is when Sheffield beat us in the Challenge Cup. |

One of the best bits is that we are going into every game confident of winning these days instead of thinking 'oh we may be able to scrape a win here' or 'id be happy losing by 4' which I have heard a few times.

Definate High - The signing of Dobson!
At last it seemed Wigan were gonna start to at least fight for survival.
The games that followed were excellant for not just the scores but the emotions and fans that had stuck with it, gave me goose bumps singing "loyal supporters" and knowing that many of us had seen through some of the worst games played in a Wigan shirt.

Low points - the 2005 season as a whole and obviously the start of 2006. The 2008 flogging by Hudds.
High points - survival in 2006. The wins at Leeds in 06/07 and 08. This season.
EDIT - the defeat to Crusaders last season away was an extremely low point actually. Only time i've been embarrassed to be a Wigan fan I think.

i've 2 ultimate lows that stick in my mind:
Cas away. we were bad enough that day! Calderwood was like a rabbit in the headlights as Cas ruined him down his wing! Funnly enough, i was stood next to Brian Noble (in the Wigan end) who'd come to see his sides opponents for the week after (still in charge of Bratfut).
Salford away. in the snow. one handed pick-ups (think it was Danny Orr). i will always remember driving back in silence as we were all numb to be being beaten by Salford with such a wimper! we then actually got to the junction at Tesco (Central Park) and one of us piped up 'F**k me guys, we've just been beaten by Salford'! How sobering as we passed Central Park!

Remember them well mate. That Cas game was the one when Andrew Farrer said he wasn't concerned with our defence because he was Assistant Coach and not Defence Coach 
On a separate note, how nice a guy was Nobby that day?

I couldn't agree more. I just can't forget that match. First game of the season, feeling this year is going to be different and then...WHAM! Patheticism at its lowest ebb...with 26 more games to come. From that moment on I couldn't wait for Noble to leave. |

Whatever happened to Billy McGinty's pineapple?
"unless you hit it directly at Paul Wellens, it's several minutes before he'll arrive at the ball." Saddened

look pal if you're going to use speech marks at least put something between them that isn't completely made up. I've seen this discussion loads of times over the years from Wigan fans and the argument has been overwhelmingly that the team finishing top should be champions with the playoffs as a separate competition. Now I don't personally agree with this argument when the rules are clear from the start of the season but that doesn't change the facts. What has been said in the past which you might find a little difficult to grasp (semi scousers aren't known as the brightest after all) is that in the seasons you played us 3 or 4 times and we were really poor, yet Leeds had to play Bradford who weren't it was hardly the level playing field needed to be able to claim any kind of trophy with any degree of worth. Now this I agree with. So, jog on back to your board and discuss how you think you might get on next year with the NRL's most popular assistant coach in charge of such world class players as Michael Shenton.
