RIP.
Millward never worked at Wigan clearly but I always have the upmost respect for him for the time he came in the South Bar after we had lost to Warrington to face dogs abuse. Not many other coaches would of done that. Deepest condolences.

[size=100:2md8k3b3][b:2md8k3b3]'Do you remember when we had that meeting in Orlando? We talked about how we were knocked out the previous year by Leeds. And at the end, I asked you one question. "Do you want to be a semi-final team? Or do you want to do something special?" You all said you wanted to win. But talking is easy – it needed you to believe. It needed you to work hard – harder than you had – and make sacrifices. You did all that. you worked for each other. You stuck together when it was tough. And because of your efforts, you sit here tonight as champions. I'm proud of you. Be proud of yourselves. You've done something special.'

| Quote: MattyB "Met Ian Millward a few months ago at the final Salford match and despite any misgivings I may have had on him as a coach, I found him a pretty nice guy to talk too. Can't imagine his loss. RIP.'"
Met him at a Sportsman's Dinner a few month's after he left Wigan and despite my reservations he actually came across as a decent guy and was a good laugh.
Deepest condolences to the family. No parent should ever have to bury their child.
RIP Robbie. |

[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 |

Rugby league must be a great game to survive the people who run it.
Never argue with an idiot. He will bring you down to his level and beat you with experience.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_4916.gif |

Was lost for words when I saw this and it puts all the petty bickering between rival fans into perspective. Sounds like it was something sudden and his dad only found out on the way back from France after the match yesterday. Dreadful news and I have nothing but sympathy for all concerned.

Basil has been placed on leave, on compassionate grounds by the Castleford club. Since we play them on Sunday I hope we can show the Millward family a lot of love and respect. Hopefully a minutes silence will be observed out of respect for Ian's loss.

Terrible, terrible thing to happen. R.I.P. Robbie.
I agree with the above quote. |

""The messages have been of comfort in this time of great sadness. Robbie was a healthy young boy who died from a condition called sudden adult death syndrome, which comprises of a massive heart attack; the sudden nature of his death is making it even harder for us to deal with."
Well as a parent of 14 & 17 year old sons I don't know how you deal with that at all. So much to look forward to at that age.
Condolences to the Millward family.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

It's difficult to know what to say. It's a tragedy for the family and friends. I just hope we can have a minutes silence impeccably observed on Sunday as a show of the RLs families support to the Millward family.
