longy single handedly beat you on Saturday and you cant get over it

go to the main topic board and just examin the posts your all like babies

So do you think Longs book presents himself and the game in a good light.
That is what this thread is about.

Look at the praise for Steve Prescott.

if you read the comments the wigan fans have written about him on these pages you might expect some kind of defense from a Saint, He may be Wigan born and bred and you may or may not have wished he had stayed in Wigan to play but from a Saints fans point of view he quite frankly as been one of the all time greats of our sport and to listen to a few of your so called rugby fans tear him to shreds is not on . He is just your typical Wiganer for me.

typical !! a scouse drawl ? you got a manc one ???????????

I dont think anyone has questioned his ability as a athlete. It is his moral fibre that has been called into question, and if you are defending said moral fibre, you are truly sad.

Not one fan of rugby should defend him for betting on his team to loose or any other of the antics that are in his book, or indeed the ones he has left out to stop him looking like a complete fool.

You just need to grow up, kid.

You're very easy to bait and are so blinded by your inferority complex with Wigan that you fly off the handle every time you see a single negative post about your club. Well ... sorry but you'd better batten down the hatches. This latest Long thing won't blow over quickly. The RFL are now demanding that he name names. I wonder how many of those Saints players he accuses are still playing for you?

But people are not criticising Long the player, it's Long the "man".
The clue is in the title of the thread.

After his assault on the young girl he was only going one way at Wigan, out and quite rightly so.

As for being one of the all time greats, well maybe at Saints, but he wouldn't make the top five scrum halves at Wigan.

Edited for accuracy

I meant scrum halves, now edited, thank you.

So when do I join you lot with the pitchfork and flaming torch then?

I don't think we need to bother. He's lit the fire himself.

And if this is your roundabout way of expressing concern that your big signing for next season might now be in jeopardy ... I think you've every reason to be concerned.

it will blow over very quickly.

as soon as the RL journo's finish work on saturday it wont be mentioned again. the RFL will sweep it under the carpet in the same way the Celtic 6 illegal immigrants story has been, never to be mentioned again.
