]So I pointed out a fact that a Wigan fan had put on.
Ok I give up we are a small club and i hope we fail and move back to wilderspool and all the other clubs building for the future of our game with new stadia all fail so Wigan can win everything. I think super league and the salary cap being brought in has ruined our game as we have now got competition with smaller clubs working hard to progress and make rugby league a success.
PS I'm not a Wigan hater like you say I've not nothing against your players or fans]

1 thing i do agree with you on is that i would rather you play in Wilderspool easier for me to get home. Nice parking outside the ground sandwich from Morrisons and then home on the M56. Where the hell have i called Wire a small club only pointed out attendances.

Same here i dont hate Wire i dont hate any team in SL. Think youve bought a lot to SL since Smith took over.

Attention Dave26!!

Here could be a new addition to the song...

They've got two grounds in the world,
Cus' Wire are a massive club!

Some absolute corkers on here from a Wire visitor to the board. Enjoying this BK?

No I don't think so and I am certainly no fan of the SKY clowns. I just don't listen to them.

Dearden is a pain in the neck though and the way and what they read out from 'the texts' is bringing our game into disrepute. It always seems to be a slagfest against Wigan.

He always has to prattle on about bloody cricket, the most boring sport known to man.

I think Cricket,snooker and tennis should be radio only.

De-rail tastic
I thought this thread was supposed to be about Radio Manchester's Rugby League coverage, not widge measuring over Wembley attendances.

FWIW, I can't listen to it
Jack 'verbal diarrhoea" Dearden, wont stop talking to let guests/callers have their say
Trevor Hunt will do anything EXCEPT give a commentary on the game. Instead, he's too busy talking about the upcoming phone-in, latest football scores, sports headlines etc. THERE'S A BLOODY GAME ON. COMMENTATE ON IT.
And as for Phil "it's so unfair for Wigan, all this salary cap rubbish" Kinsella , he's hardly anti Wigan. is he?

The best thing for all concerned at Radio Manchester's RL coverage, is to tear it up, and start again with new people.

Their whole coverage is cringe inducing (especially the sending in of texts for the phone in. They make some of the arguements on here, seem intellectually highbrow )

Problem is the game interms of the media is not that important. And generally you will get the worst ones covering our games. As for Stevo and Eddie i do really think they know what they are doing, they will know that most Wigan supporters think they are biased so will play on it. I dont think that Stevo is that bad but Eddie is defenitley covering our games lately looking to jump on us.

Oh, I don't know tank123
If you've still got the game recorded, watch it back (I know it'll be painful ), and Eddie is literally praying that Wigan get back in the game, especially his half time analysis.

On the whole, I don't know why Eddie and Stevo get so much stick.

Yes, they can act like a couple of plonkers from time to time.

Stevo is biased to Leeds/Bradford, Eddie is a Wid, with a (definate) Stains leaning, when the Wids aren't in SL.

To those of you who think Eddie is a closet Wire...you couldn't be further from the truth.
I've known the fella for about 7 or 8 years, and he's NEVER had a good word to say about us, to me, especially under the Tony Smith era. All he's done recently, is acknowledge that we've improved 10 fold in the last couple of years. When we were 5h1te, he couldn't wait to "stick the knife" into us.

Apart from Eddie making the odd gaffe during commentary, these 2 are good BROADCASTERS. Yes, they may wind us all up, from time to time, but are we going to get someone better? It could be worse. We could get Dearden/Hunt on Sky

I remembered this geezer when I was looking at all those empty seats tonight, especially after talking to a Wire fan earlier and asking him if he was going to the match - he reckoned he couldn't get a ticket as it was a sell out and they had even filled the Huddersfield end. Rain this afternoon must have made them all decide to stay at home and watch it on tv

Ah right, thought it was odd as the guy I was talking to obviously believed there weren't any tickets to be had - he'll be gutted when he finds out why he couldn't get one

Where were the other 26,000 on Friday night then, and I still think he said 50,000.
