Keith Holding I believe.

They took over the Ben a bit back. At least he has something to fall back on eh?

however many it was. One is too many and we all know that. I myself have smoke cannabis once or twice in the past but if my career relied on it i'd never touch any sort of drugs. it's just common sense.

terry wore his heart on his sleave and was passionate while he was at wigan. weather you love him or hate him he did his best for our club. I would never slate him. he knows what a massive mistake he has made. He has to live with that now.
Like i said previously its a sad way to end a glittering carreer.

Indeed, performance enhancing drugs are no where near as bad as recreational ones! What are the RFL thinking????

Glittering Career?

ANT player who takes drugs SHOULD be banned for 2 years no matter if it is RECREATIONAL or PERFORMANCE ENHANCING... this will send out a clear message.. ANY .DRUG TAKING IS NOT EXCEPTABLE IN OUR GAME.
I DONT care if he took it cos of a broken jaw or because he had a boil on his backside...he knew what he was doing and has not recieved what he deserved.

i hope the stories about Hock being offered a 5 year deal are not true.lets see him prove he is clean before we offer anything to him

Are those song lyrics?

I thought it was a poem at first.

You hum it, I'll sing it.

There are loads of players out there using 'growth' but it is in and out of the system very quickly so Terry Newton has been very unlucky there, shouldn't have been using it but I can understand him taking the risk to prolong his career by taking it.

Certain players in the superleague who have got absolutely massive arms/muscles who haven't the frame or genes to naturally develop their muscles you can spot them a mile off or certain forwards who go through a stage of ripping it up and then fading into nothing are the obvious ones who could be suspected of using 'growth' and old players who seem to play on longer than expected.

Very sad way to end a career.

Im sure Newton is regretting what is a massive f*ck up on his part, but at the same time, I have no sympathy for the guy.

Legend for what he did to Long for not.

His career ended when he left Wigan IMO.

look guys i dont wanna upset any1
and yeah i also agree 1 pill is to much
but all im saying is like my name
i am superloyal to our team
and even loyaler to my mates
so im sorry about the rant i had
just winds me up is all
and im gutted for lad proper
and just wanted to show terry if he is reading any of this
that he as at least 1 mate that will stand by him threw his silly mistake

Agreed, he was never the same player at Bradford, think the coach at the time tore the heart out of Terry

Fair enough if your standing by a mate, we would do the same, however I doubt one pill of anything would show up on a test, now if you mean one course of pills, as steriods are usually taken in courses, then thats a different matter, we dont know terrys motives for taking this, however its the stupidest decision he ever will make!

Also can you not type in text parlance, as I cant understand it. Getting old you see

sorry mate didnt mean to talk in text mode
im just gutted for lad really and just wanted to show him some surport and yeah i no i cant spell but just had an operation on my head im grand mall epileptic and still wont miss our match on friday soooooooooooo looking forward to facing up to the dragons come on wigannn

He must be in the running for having the most GF losing medals. I'm sure they'd glitter in the right light



In all seriousness, I think he was a talented player let down by being a numpty and giving biff when it wasn't needed. He may be a hero to Wigan fans after finishing our season in 2005, but that's the kind of thing that stopped him being considered anything more than a decent player. Giving away stupid penalties at stupid times (like being under the Aussie sticks and being 3rd man in allowing them to go the length of the pitch and score

).

I've been told this weekend that Tez and father in law (Keith Holden) are taking over this Wigan pub next week? Surely this is a very amusing rumour, if not then its very ironic.






The press will have a field day if true!

Quality

Last time I went to that pub, a few years ago now, it was in a bad way. The cubicle in the gents had a great big hole in the wall.

Oh yeah?

Big lads in that part of wigan

my mate has just bought terrys BMW X5. now thats tough times for terry
