Its obviously a small club mentality - I was offering a comment about the game as I saw it, not to be abused by a moron with low esteem.

The incident with Ryan was indeed a penalty.
He'll still cop a fine for throwing punches though and maybe more depending on his record.
No good to us though.

Gelling was different. There was something in the tackle he took offence to and came up hitting out. Penalty against us fair enough as touch judge good see best.
However Gelling through another punch when it calmed down and Ryan wasn't defending himself. That deserved more than a penalty in my opinion.

Obviously!

Then again we're just from Historical City of Wakefield rather than the burgeoning metropolis of Wigan

So one comment you didn't like and you start name calling and against the whole club too?
That's just never going to go down well.

By all means post on the Wigan board if you like.

The irony for you to reply in the manner you have talking about differing opinions.

I never said you weren't entitled it. Another stupid, mind-boggling, ultra-defensive reply.

I'm going to bed before I start restricting your freedom of speech.

Yeah, your ground is truly historical..a true vision of professionalism.

Each to their own I guess. We have the best playing surface in the league and a view from any part of the ground that allows you to actually see what is going on. DW stadium - its like sitting at the top of a step ladder watching subutteo - you can keep it.

I love Belle Vue, it's a great stadium non sanitised by the Sky movement.

Is it good for the game or club probably not but does that make it any less great a venue?......No.

Yeah, it's steeped in history but why would a Luddite like you know any of that.

I wonder how many Wigan fans would love the chance to go back to Central Park and have the opportunity to redevelop that historic ground into a modern stadium.

Cas fan here, well done Trinity!!!

I didn't start the Walshaw thread to criticise Lyne being included. I was at the time I posted it merely pointing out that imo it was a harsh decision to leave Walshaw out based on recent performances.

I am sure I was not alone pre kick off in holding that view.

As it happens Lyne came in and had a good came as did Mathers and even Scruton looked better. All that said does not mean that previous criticism of those players performances were not justified. In fact, if anything them playing like that shows that past criticism was correct.

Watching the highlights, it looks like Owen is well out of position for 3 of their tries. Not bagging him, just need to tighten that sort of stuff up. Looked like Ryan was getting a bit annoyed by it. Shame they didn't show the handbags though.

Are highlights on line for those of us lucky enough to be sunning it up in the Balearics?

Yes head on the clubs site.
