The Briscoe one isn't really an issue.

We offered him a deal but he choose to leave because he had a 26 year 100% fit Kris Radlinski infront of him and didn't want to be forced into playing on the wing.

In hindsight of course we'd have wanted to keep him but nobody was to know Rads would have to retire so nobody can really take any blame........infact Wigan should be praised for not standing in his way.

I'd swap Wild for Bailey and Tickle for Hansen in all honesty.

Tickle wasn't a Wigan junior. He was signed from another club. I don't know why people keep naming him in this list. Well actually I do. It makes the figures more impressive if you keep adding names.

Chris Ashton
Steven Wild
Mark Smith
Luke Robinson
Chris Melling
Bryn Hargreaves
Jon Clarke
Kevin Brown
Matin Aspinwall
Bob Beswick

Just a few more names, but TBH I wouldn’t want them back

What's it like to have no friends?

True, i pointed that out yesterday but like you say if opposition fans think it makes their case stronger they'll add them on to the list.

At the end of the day we've not released a homegrown player since Sean Long thats gone on to become a great player.

People allow the fact that Tickle and Hodgson were signed not brought through the academy slip there mind with some easy.


Apart from Briscoe i wouldnt have anyone back we let go.And even then i would pick Ashton over him if i could choose

Trolling aside, I agree.

I wouldn't.
