Cheers pal

Let us know what you think of the backroom special
Sounds a bit sentimental but to get the chance to listen to 2 guys with 50 years behind the scenes stories and listen to their memories of 125 years of supporting wigan between then was an honour

As I’ve previously said really enjoy the podcast.

One bit of feedback I need to give is one the lads calls our full back “JAI FIELDS” instead of “JAY FIELD”

Really bugs me haha

Otherwise perfect!

My lad says he thinks that's him
Duly noted

Hi all This week there is a review of last week's semi final bit also something a little different Last night the usual hosts invited 4 lifelong wigan fans to share their memories of the previous Grandfinals back to 1998, their Highs and lows, a season review and their thoughts on the season and a preview of Saturdays Grand Final Apologies in advance for my contribution but we really enjoyed it and hopefully it will be a good Pre GF listen https://spotify.link/111Ch7iAPDb As an aside they are regularly attracting over 500 listeners per week now on Spotify, Apple play and YouTube (I believe) Thanks to everyone who's listened and for the feedback over the year (mostly positive)

Just listening to this weeks episode and I think it's bloody brilliant!

Exactly what I wanted this week to build up the Grand Final.

I'll definitely be going back and listening to previous episodes and look forward to more, as long as we win anyway.



Cheers lads.

The beauty of the podcast for me is that the lads focus on the whole game and aren’t just one eyed on Wigan. Yes, Wigan get more conversation time than the other clubs/leagues but there is a balanced view on things.

I watch other clubs podcasts and I don’t think it’ll come as much of a surprise that the Red Vee lads said in this weeks that they have no interest in the GF and won’t watch it because they support Saints and not the game. Each to their own but I watch any teams games and any finals we’re not in. It makes it more special when your side gets to one.

Got emotional going into the ground and seeing the flags all over the Wigan end, also when Madge and Lockers came on the big screen stood in the tunnel, the roar from the Wigan end - goosebumps. 2013, lived in Warrington my whole life and losing to them wasn’t an option. Said to my dad after Westwood scored “bloody hell, it is their year”. What a feeling that comeback was. In Sam and Pat Richards last game. Also glad someone else other than me remembers how good FPN was in 2016, absolutely critical to us winning that GF (as Dupree might be tomorrow)

Watched the 2013 GF back last night and I forgot how dominant we actually were early in the game. We were all over them for 15/20 mins and bombed a few chances on that right hand side. The 3 try blitz by Wire were probably the only 10 mins in the game when Wigan weren’t the team pushing and dominating territory.

Same here, was nice watching it back. Westwood’s attack on Green was cowardly of the highest order, it still bothers me now



I also watched the 2016 and 2018 finals (was a quiet evening

) and each year we had a player put in a talismanic performance. 2013 was obviously Green, 2016 was Sarginson playing out of his skin just weeks after his brother sadly passed and 2018 was Tomkins and Manfredi. Some players just come to life for one night only but usually there’s a story around them and tomorrow I wouldn’t put it past KPP to play a blinder. He’s been sensational for 2/3 months now.

On the podcast, I’m also enjoying it and the knowledge of the lads is great. I can’t stand the Redvee garbage or that Yorkshire one which I thankfully can’t remember the name of. My only two pieces of constructive criticism is that the audio isn’t super clear - as someone not from Wigan it’s sometimes tough to understand sometimes with the heavy accent

and I do struggle with the length of them - I think around 1hr-1hr 10 is the ideal length of a podcast. Usually the length of a gym session or daily commute. Otherwise keep up the great work!
