Newsnight 13th May 2010: "With the role of Deputy Prime Minister a non-job. Has Nick Clegg gone from King Maker to tea maker????"
I kept the faith and I kept voting
Not for the iron fist but for the helping hand
For theirs is a land with a wall around it
And mine is a faith in my fellow man
Theirs is a land of hope and glory
Mine is the green field and the factory floor
Theirs are the skies all dark with bombers
And mine is the peace we knew

LOL.
what about around the ankles? What about ankle taps? The list goes on and on and on - it's bloody ludicrous. |

Some of these reactions on this board are insensitive and slightly embarrassing. John Kear is only trying to reclaim his prestigious crown from last year. Something that as a Wigan fan I can sympathise with as we're hoping to retain our title.
A valiant attempt Mr Kear, but you must do better I'm afraid.

Tony Clubb: "This is a new exciting chapter of my life signing for Wigan and I couldn't be happier" 18/10/2013
Romain Navarrete: “I’m very happy to have signed for Wigan Warriors. As soon I knew that Wigan were interested, they were the only team that I wanted to sign for. To me, Wigan is the biggest Club in Rugby League and it will be an honour to pull on the famous Cherry-and-White jersey next year. I look forward to working with Shaun Wane and the players at Wigan.”:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10172.jpg |

Why don't we just allow one person to make a tackle, and maybe have a piece of cloth hanging off the shorts so when it's ripped off, the tackle is complete? That way, there'll never be another injury in SL. I can't see the Aussies being able to beat us at this....................

| Quote: Father Ted "Jeff Lima was binned for "tackling the standing leg below the knee" by Silverwood with advice from his TJ's.
If they understand that "Standing" means stationary which it does they are talking utter nonsense. At no time in the incident was Clarkson standing or stationary.
He was running, pumping his legs and driving the Wigan tacklers back. At that point Lima tackled him and the point of impact was the thigh.
Why there is all this about tackling a standing leg I don't know.
It will be interesting to see if Jeff is charged and the nature of the charge. If it is the same as the offence for sin binning then they are setting a dangerous precedent.
Jeff Lima tackled a man running with the ball.
Do they intend abolishing that?'"
STANDING LEG ???????????????
does that mean you cant tackle somebody whos standing up? |

Well Mr Kear, thanks for the motivation for Wakefield v Wigan, think your guys will know all about tackling after this game.
Mr Bitter not worth a comment.

1 really bad thing is going to happen next season. We will get more of Kear on tv and radio as he wont be coaching in SL when Wakey get kicked out. Feel sorry for the fans but Kear is nothng more than an average coach thats why hes always coached mid to bottom of the table sides.

[quote="Mark"]Great game of rugby league. Fantastic atmosphere, Wigan were breathtaking and dominant in all areas for the first 25 minutes, coupled with us making alot of dumb mistakes,then fortunately they brought McIlorum on which helped us back into the game. I thought some of the tries we scored to get us within two we're out of this world stuff. Towards the end we had to force it a little and we had a few things go wrong, i.e Monas kick on the first for King and Solomona going off who was causing havoc. Wigan were clinical in their eventual execution of us. Proud of Wire today and gave us a little glimpse to the future. Silverwood was awful as per, but I expect no less. Tomkins is a world class player and by far the best english player in SL. Wigan are a champion side and would be a worthy winner of taking our title as challenge cup. Good luck over the next month and a bit.[/quote]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_23997.jpg |

| In sl by the time you have made a tackle and are getting set they are coming straight back at you so in that time you can think were you are going to tackle the guy and think i'm going to end his season  |

John Kear has made a career off one game, whilst Garry Schofield has less medals than Wire players FFS!!
I wouldn't worry too much.

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

I think that is a little bit harsh.
He won the 1998 challenge cup final but then repeated that success at Hull in 2005. He kept Wakefield from relegation and has taken them to the play-offs and also to a challenge cup semi-final with limited resources. |

We won't petal.
John Kear has a well respected reputation within SL of motivating less than average players.
And the Garry Schofield you were so dismissive about...... is it the same guy, who had captained both his club and country, and at his retirement from playing had a record equalling 46 caps for GB?
Could it be the same Schofield who re-wrote the record books by scoring four tries as Great Britain beat New Zealand in the second Test series at..... eerm, Central Park, Wigan in 1985?
Possibley the very same chappy that the Australian legend Brett Kenny meant, when in 2010 was asked who was the best British player he had ever encountered on a RL pitch replied,....... Garry Schofield!
Maybe you know another Garry, eh?  |

I was thinking of the chubby gypsy jewellery wearing baboon, who harbours a massive grudge against Wigan for denying him domestic silverware during his time with the bellow par Leeds team.
The same Gary Schofield who was recently sacked from his job after about 5 minutes for being inept as a manager.
Now likely to been seen writing poison pen letters about talented rugby league players because he feels like the whole wide world "misunderstands him"

Do try and keep up sailor, we were discussing his playing career, not his less than successful periods after he quit.
Anyways, isn't it time you packed your sea sick pills and set sail for the Med? |

Just because he was a very good player doesn't mean he's not a t@sser. The same Gary Schofield who has just been sacked as coach by a Championship team. Just because he was a talented player does not mean that his opinions have to be valued now, over 10 years since he last played.
