You're right. Players never end up supporting clubs they have played for above who they supported as a kid especially when that club rejected them or treated them like s***. That never happens. |

Why not? What are they even there for if they can't do that? |

Besides the fact it's pretty bloody difficult to get in line with him after the break, they actually look onside if we pause it on the boot rather than when the ball has already gone.
Edit - I can never seem to manage to upload pictures to here. Pause this video on exactly 1 min 21 https://youtu.be/ieQf6r35lWE |

Yes that one was onside.
The one last night wasn’t a break and the TJs had enough scope to see the offside player.
What’s your point? That TJs make glaring mistakes? In which case I agree.

Apologies, I couldn't watch the game last night due to other rugby commitments. Mistakenly watched the highlights from earlier in the season. 
I've seen the right one now, agree that he is offside. It's still a lot easier judging a freeze frame than running around continuously making split second decisions. There is a lot to watch on kicks in particular. |

Not quite the same theme. but I know a few rugby players from Leigh who never played for the club (for whatever reason) that don't support the Centurions, but might go to watch the odd game. Ian Sanderson and his brother Mark, Cliff Eccles, Mark Hudspith, and I don't know him but don't think Scott Naylor ever bothered when he wasn't playing/coaching. |

Oh yeah, players will still support the side they always have in most cases but there is the odd case when that changes. More so in football with the likes of Carragher, Peter Reid, Ian Rush, but when players are treated a certain way by a club their loyalties can change. |

Stu Littler was rejected by Wigan and treated like s*** by them as a kid went on to captain Salford and Leigh and still supports Wigan  |

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 |

Lived opposite me in Billinge when he was a boy. His brother is still a Wigan season ticket holder.

Do you actually play the violin? Or are you looking for an honorary membership to the dark side.

I had a go once, couldn't get the hang of it. Don't understand the reason for your latter comment, my stepfather (don't like that word) is a Wigan fan, and he will confirm to you that in no way shape or form do I require a membership of any Wigan Warriors association.
