| Didn't like the way they took the team photos with their backs to the crowd. Should have let us all see the team.
The cynic in me suggests this is so we all go out and buy a newspaper to see what was going on  |

the only alternative was to have the players backs to the North Stand which wouldn't have made a good backdrop to the photo.

A professional-quality photo at that distance would have a narrow enough depth of field that the background would be very out of focus, and therefore irrelevant. |

Shouldn't we make a conscious effort to stop calling it a hub cap as this merely perpetuates the image of it being a meaningless trophy? I think Wigan have done a lot to raise it's status but unless we call it by its true name it will never be given the status it truly deserves. The £50k prizemoney is a step in the right direction.

I agree.
If other clubs in the past had done a proper presentation then the profile of the League Leaders Trophy would have risen and Sky would have had to take it seriously and given it more air time. |

It was done really well and wasn't anywhere near as cheesy as I thought it would be. I was very proud of the lads last night, we've come so far since 2006 and this was only the second trophy I've ever seen us lift as I only started attending games properly 11 years or so ago.

Same for me.
We all recognise it's not the main prize, but it was nice to see some silverware again. |

Agree with Kat, not too cheesy.
Sam running to the north stand was hilarious

regarding the north stand celebrations
was it just taking the mickey out of an empty stand?
a message to other clubs?
a message to dave whelan?
i personally thought it was just a joke that the stand was emoty but heard a lot of people saying it was to the DW spelt out in the seats?
CONSPIRACIES.

It was just a take because of when Sam Tomkins scored that try against Huddersfield and celebrated to the empty stand.
Seriously where do people make up this crap |
