It isn't, not on any sensible definition. A very narrow statistician's definition of a city would put Manchester way down the list of UK cities for example, but it just isn't realistic to say Leeds is bigger than Manchester |

I live in Leeds and I'm surrounded by countryside and farms. Go figure. |

Games as big as Grand Finals define individuals and clubs. Remember, we only rent these journeys. In my time I had Pat Richard's shirt. Ellery Hanley had Sean O'Loughlin's jersey. Sam Tomkins is wearing Radders' number one jersey. Andy Coley is wearing Shaun Wayne's jersey. You have to make a mark in these shirts before you hand it down to someone else. Hand it back. So be aware for 80 minutes that you are not only playing, but you are also writing history and creating legacy. How many people actually write history - not many? A big stage demands big players…..INSPIRE YOUR TEAM MATES.

3rd largest (by population for example). Manchester (not Greater Manchester) is 5th or 6th by the same measure. I could post a link if I was that bothered but you have probably looked into it yourself already so you know.
If you wish to ignore a staisticians definition of a city, whose definition would you go by? |

Population seems to be the criteria on any internet search for 'Largest UK cities'
Here are some facts from one of those searches just for you. Oh...and you dont really have to resort to name calling just because you are wrong.
City Population
London 7.2 Million
Birmingham 992000
Leeds 720000
Glasgow 560000 |

no mate, Leeds is only that large if you add its metro borough into it. If you want ot do that you will have to include greater manchetser. Glasgow is larger than them both but I used english cities in mine. |

[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 |

Joel owned his ass all game watch it back near the end McGuire gave Joel a nudge off the ball near the end and laughed at him cause he knew he couldn't do anything thats how hard he is
I wish at the end when that scrap started Joel just stuck his head on him

Warrington led 16-2 in Saturday's Grand Final, but their joy was short-lived as Wigan roared back to win the Super League title and extend the Wire's 58-year wait to be champions:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10174.png |

Are they the figures based on the ONS definition of a city? Because if they're not, you're wasting your time pal. |

Leeds went to another level of cheating under Tony Smith and it is still there.
How anyone who watches that lot can criticise another club and it's players is laughable.
As for Ryan Bailey? He's an utter disgrace that guy is. Warned twice by Alibert about lifting his knees when going into a tackle. Like I said they take cheating to a different level do Leeds and have done for some years now.
