We've been there ourselves so know what your team is going through but thought you was better then last season and just thought you tired after going uphill in the first half.

Do Wigan Bulldogs still play on that pitch by the DW sports centre near the stadium?

NWC has it as "Scot Lane, Stadium Way, WN5 0UN", while LeagueRepublic has it as "William Foster Playing Fields, Ince, Wigan".

Any ideas?

Yeah, they play at the DW pitches.

Wigan Bulldogs 32 - 26 Bury Broncos

you saw the game?? sargey you was in the bloody game. i really liked how the ref saw you gauge my eye in a tackle, not give a penalty but then tell you not to do that again when he next saw you in the line! that was great, no wonder i lost my temper and gave a penalty away for back chatting, i heard the ref even came back to yours after the game for a knees up?? haha

sour grapes no - it was a great game though and hope we can take that performance forward into the next game. a wins just round the corner.

He must have missed that and you fingering my ear in the scrum hope you enjoyed your early shower!

The worst bit for me is where we tackled a guy a foot or so from our line, the ref shouted "roll away", we did, and then a try was awarded saying he touched the ball down!!!! When our lad said "he just put that there after you shouted roll away!" the ref said "it was there ages ago" our response "WHAT THE F*CK??? Why didnt you give the try then and not shout roll away???" Grrr.

But yes, top game, not sour grapes at all (i know it doesnt sound like it!) but when a ref turns up to a match, his kids in the widnes kit and the ref knowing a full team on first name basis, you know your not in for an easy ride.

Bring on Chorley.

Bloody hope no-one was gouging...all our games have been tough but in the right spirit, the division seems to have a good set of lad so far. The last thing we need is anyone bringing in filthy & dirty tactics like that.

Saying that, the last person I saw gouging (many, many years ago) ended up flat out cold with an adjusted nose when a veteran prop took it rather personally. The ref had seen him gouging and when he came round told him "it's yer own stupid fault" and sent him off.

Fingers in ears?? What's that all about?? I remember once playing prop in a Union scrum and the opposing prop decided he would rub his stubble against my face every time we packed down - fair dos, it was rough stubble but it still made me laugh.
