| Speaking of Schofield and Wigan, search for "Big fat Garry Schofield" on a well known video site
Apols if referred to already, haven't read the whole thread. ![Thumbs up icon_thumb.gif](images/smilies//icon_thumb.gif)

History - Surely you don't need us to tell you that we're the most successful club in world rugby.
Present - We're doing quite nicely at the top of the league at the moment, attendances are on the up (nearly 15,500 average atm),
Future - Our youngsters are sweeping all aside in their competitions - coming through in great numbers.
What's there to be sad about. ![Mr. Green icon_mrgreen.gif](images/smilies//icon_mrgreen.gif)

So all of a sudden you're not talking about the time when Garry Schofield wanted to join Wigan, and Wigan said 'no'.
In which case, when exactly were we supposed to be sad?

Got to agree - a trophy this year is a big ask bearing in mind what this squad, inherited by MM, achieved last year .... full credit to MM in achieving so much this year.
MM will already be having a big say in the signings for next year and I can't wait to see what this guy will achieve with a squad of his own!
So Gary you may or may not be right on this occassion .... but I will wager you £20 we still finish top of the pile in 2010 ... if you do win then at least you can tell the family that at long last you have say you won something in your Rugby League career.

| I find it strange that we can be good enough to finish top but not good enough to win the GF. Really, the team finishing top is actually the best team in the league, especially under the current fixture format.

Never works that way ask Saints fans.
The team the wins the Grand Final gets remembered not the team that wins the shield.

| Schoey was pretty positive in parts about Wigan I thought. This is the article for those who haven't seen it:
GARRY Schofield, Great Britain's joint-record caps holder, believes that Wigan's only chance of silverware this season is holding on to their top spot and lifting the league leaders' shield.
Commenting after watching Wigan lose at home to St Helens by two points in Sunday's derby game, Schofield said: "Wigan have had a very good season and their recovery from being a mid-table side has been great for Super League.
"But I feel that they've peaked already this season and I'm not sure how much they still have to give. We know that at least one or two of the sides below them will come strong when it really matters.
"Wigan were poor against St Helens and the final score flattered them. Saints were worthy winners and were unlucky not to win by a much wider margin.
"Wigan can be a bit too predictable. It's too easy to read what Sam Tomkins and Thomas Leuluai are going to do sometimes and when teams snuff them out like Saints did, you wonder what else Wigan have got up their sleeve.
"But they have got plenty to be positive about - especially when you look at their recent past. They've come a long way and they're going in the right direction under Michael Maguire and Shaun Wane.
"Mike McIlorum had a very good game and I think he's someone that England should be looking at for the Four Nations. Martin Gleeson is still olur best centre in my opinion and Joel Tomkins has had a great season.
"But this year is too soon for them to be a realistic bet of winning the Grand Final."

Except that Schofield doesn't know what he's talking about because he's thick.

| Does anyone else wish Schofield would just drop off the face of the earth? HE has to be the biggest egotistical K-nob around.

Doesn't preclude certain posters on here for offering their virtuous knowledge. And yet he has played at the highest level.
His OPINIONmust be wrong then.

A man who puts his tacky jewelry back on before he goes up to collect his loser's medal is thick.
