They'd also have a guaranteed place for 3 years to offer security to players who could/would join them.'"
I was hoping that would be the case. I assume they have the money to do this too? |

Without a doubt. Their chairman owns Stobart's so has spent above a million quid on the ground alone. |

If only he'd use the ground to advertise his company eh?  |

Oh I am so worried about our place, I wonder what will happen.
Honestly though, it would be a shame to lose Wakefield, a massive shame.

Why? It's not that massively different from when we had P&R, just better structured.
In the unlikely event they ever get their act together, they can re-apply.
You can just as easily argue it was a shame we lost Workington, Oldham, Sheffield, Halifax in the early years of SL. |

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

The thing is had Fax still been in super league, they would have received a place, but they were in the championship and didn't get a place. Thats whats wrong with the RFL.
They are not picking the 14 best clubs. I can't believe they said one club will definantly be going down! Surely they can't say that if the 14 best clubs will be chosen.
I still think it should be reduced to 12 so we can have a stronger super league and a stronger championship. |

| Quote: Riggs Warrior "Hetherington must have had a word with Lewis et al about getting rid of us and Wolfs, give the Whinos a chance of winning somethingthis year?!
I'd be in favour of getting Barrow, Widnes and one of Fax or (even though they don't qualify) Leigh in and getting rid of Wakey, Crusaders and Quins.'"
Why not go the whole hog? Catalans, Crusaders and Quins out, Barrow, Widnes and Leigh in?
Can't have any Southerners or Foreigners sullying the purity of our game, right? |
