Where has he said that his team is not more important that his dislike of Wigan? He just states that he dislikes Wigan.
You dislike Saints, there are many reasons why fans of clubs dislike other clubs.'"
I dislike Saints as our local rivals. But I don't visit your forum every day to try and prove it. In fact, I hardly ever post on there. But that's not just because I don't like trolls and trolling. It's because I'm more interested in what's happening at Wigan than I am in what's happening at your club.
That distinctly isn't the impression I get from quite a few 'visitors' to this forum. Today, we've had one Wire fan banned who, from his 23 posts on this site so far, made 19 of them on the Wigan board - all designed to cause annoyance. Now you may not feel that's a little bit sad, but I do, and I'm going to continue saying it is.

Supporting a particular club I can half understand, even for a pro commentator. But disliking a particular club is highly unprofessional.
I still haven't forgotten the Wigan v Leeds game a few years ago, when Wigan were just ahead.
Eddie said something like: "There's still time. Can Leeds pull this one back." Stevo responded with something like: "Let's hope so."
Even button-eyed Eddie then went on to say something like: "Oh, the Wigan fans won't like that."
Well he got somethig right, at least.

| I'm not so much bothered about the Bias, its more the continual attempts to be controversial.
It does my head in when they natter on about the play the ball etc and some of the comments are just infuriating.

| You can at least take solace from the fact that Bill Arthur is a hard core Wigan nuthugger.

| Quote BOYD2="BOYD2"Its not about the Comic duo its about the Wigan supporter who sent in the Email,with all due respect to most people on here that person is a complete fool and just showed the watching public what an idiot he is.'"
Exactly, most people will think he represents all Wigan fans and will think we are all paranoid.
I am not a fan of Eddie as he can really do my head in when he goes off on one like numbers on shirts etc. But to say it was a hissy fit is a little wide of the mark, it irratated him and it showed but for a true hissy fit from him think back to what the Manly CEO said about Superleague, now that was funny seeing Eddie thowing a proper hissy fit

I agree that it's sad. A bit of banter is one thing, occasional trolling with humour is another, but consistent trolling, with the lack of humour that most do it with is pretty pathetic.
But I suppose the 15 year olds that do it find it amusing.

I used to think Stevo had a pecking order for supporting clubs
Leeds
Bradford
Wigan
Saints
The other Yorkshire teams
The rest.

| Should the head of refs be a known supporter of a certain club?

| Everyone who loves the game: Ref's, commentators, Journalists, people within the RFL all follow a team.
Let's not kid ourselves people.

He barely gets the names of the players correct and I cringe at some of the 'off-topic' conversations he has with his co-commentators and that's not even mentioning his alleged bias.
I have always said in order to take our game further it's not just down to what we produce at the clubs and on the pitch but how we convey ourselves to the nation and Eddie Hemmings just makes us look like thick, northern folk -- and I won't even get started on Barrie McDermott.'"
