| Today I have been out to my mothers 103rd birthday party, It started about 1-pm at one of our local clubs with family and close friends. About 3-pm I took my mother home because she soon gets tired (my niece was driving I had already had a couple) we got my mother settled before we walked back to the club.
Before we left I asked her what she wanted on the telly, when I told her RL was on she said that would do, Cas v Bradford was on. She said that would do because she loves her sport, especially RL and knowing that I am a Wigan fan she always loves watching them and wants them to win all the time, I walked home from the club about 6-pm just to make sure everything was OK.
When I got home I asked her what she was watching, she said it was Warrington and Saints Helens and that Wire was beating Saints easily. Then she said that she did not know wether to laugh or cry.  |

Whatever happened to Billy McGinty's pineapple?
"unless you hit it directly at Paul Wellens, it's several minutes before he'll arrive at the ball." Saddened

23 - 20 - 4
Warrington led 16-2 in Saturday's Grand Final, but their joy was short-lived as Wigan roared back to win the Super League title and extend the Wire's 58-year wait to be champions:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10174.png |

Happy 103rd to your mum! She's old enough to remember Wire winning the league.

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery.......
I will look to the moment, and miraculously, the future will take care of itself.

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 |

What a great story and congratulations to a lovely lady. Cherish them while they are here . I lost my Dad very recently who's memories of Wigan RLFC and anecdotes went back to the mid 1920's.
