Take off your saints specs and look at some pre and after photos.

Get real buddy.
Your just trying to be a smart arris but dressing it up as a RL fan with genuine and balanced comments.
Have you got a big and very powerful pack?
Anyway did KC ever have any charges?
Straight answer and no pack drill or stop behaving like Tont Blair with all sincerity mate'"
What on earth is your problem? You do realise this is a message board where people come to share their opinions? If you can't handle that maybe you should try something a little more ... erm ... solitary and lower your blood pressure. You'll live longer.
As for your obsession with whatever Cunningham put on his cornflakes - why don't you ask him? I'm sure he'll be only too happy to answer your "sincere" questions.

Another fan stuck in the 90s labelling Roby a flashy scooting hooker.
As for MMs defence being better than Roby's. . . . .

| Quote ="Wigan28/Leeds18 Andy"Unfortunately no one in cherry and white last night has what I would call a "rugby brain", only Locky seems to have it, Green had it and we desperately miss him, no more so than Farrell.
Smith should be taking control of these game but he doesn't have it in him.
Leeds were unbelieveable average last night and were there for the taking but that says more about Wigan at the moment I'm afraid.
Every single try Leeds scored was directly after an error or penalty by Wigan. The usual serial offenders (Farrell/Tomkins/Gelling) were at it again and need to be dropped.'"
Agree with all of that, there's no one in the team capable of reading the game and directing the play. When we played the ball attacking Leeds' line, nobody at 1st/2nd receiver was calling the shots. It was really poor.
Having said that, I'm not too worried for the rest of the season. The errors and indiscipline can be cut out and when they are, we'll be up there again. Can't see us lifting any silver though.

I don't think you should post when you've had a drink mate. I haven't got a clue what you're talking about.
At no point did I go missing; nor have I showed any inability to take a defeat.
I genuinely don't know what your issue is with me. Let's stick to the threads instead of petty personal attacks eh?

After last Good Friday you went missing and after your drubbing by Souths you went missing or did you have a bit of drink after those two defeats and were incapable of posting any comments on any forum for a couple of weeks each time?
I have no problem whatsoever with anyone posting their opinions it's what these forums are all about is it not?
Nothing personal at all in fact if we ever met before or after a game I would gladly buy you beer however, knowing how it affects you I would only buy you a half

You've lost it. I didn't go missing at all, I post as and when I see fit. Not sure why any Saints fans would come straight on a wigan forum to discuss a Saints v Souths match. You're obsessed pal.

Your in self denial.
I'm sure you can get treatment for it but probably not on the NHS.
Last Easter was obviously a bad time for you and the Souths drubbing caused you to stop posting on the saints forum as well.
These are not memory lapses but your brain kidding you into thinking that no one would notice even though your absence was commented on by several people.
It's not personal but just think of it as some free of charge rehab to get you started

Give it a rest. Nobody wants to read this tripe. I'm not getting involved with any of your nonsense anymore. Stick to the thread.
Ps I've just checked. I posted on the saints forum 4 consecutive days after the Souths game.
As I said, nonsense.

Mmmmmm and paranoid your rehab could take a while.
You could join me and many other wigan fans who have just joined a society to help people who are frightened of those rough tough forwards from over the hill called the SSS scaredlesssociety.
By the way could someone hold this rod for a while as I can't be fishing all day?

What I realise is that for some reason we seem to be overrun with Saints fans willing to "share their opinions". When the wheel turns you and your ilk are nowhere to be seen. You are storming it at the top of the league and all you can do on a Saturday night is gloat on this forum. Loser.

| He's not really gloating but I see your point.
If a Wigan fan dared to post on the Saints forum they just get tons of abuse, as RG knows too well. Yet when they're on here "it's a message board for posting opinions".
Not to mention every single Mugwump post is "your pack is crap and lightweight", just worded differently. Bore off.

I'm a naughty naughty boy for having a laugh at someone else's expense.
As a penance I will gasp and cheer at that cheeky chappy Burns as he stands offside throughout the entire game indeed I have started a collection to buy him a wigan shirt for when we play saints so that he can blend in reducing the chance of actually being seen offside or God forbid ever being yellow carded for unprofessional conduct. Oh how I will marvel at how competitive he is even though I really know that he is an argumentative little bar steward.
Being of a Christian nature I have also bought KC some new bigger earphones whilst he watches his "entertainers" who have actually morphed into a wigoon lookalike outfit. I intend to present these to him while he has cornflakes at Longys.
What I am really looking forward to as part of my penance is listening to Wello as he explains as to why no one has ever scored a legal try against the saints hence his protestations for every try ever conceded. I also intend to practice his Jesus impersonation that he enacts every time the opposition score - you know the one where he has his arms stretched out wide as if he has been nailed.
What I'm not looking forward to though is where I will have shout and cheer as that bad lad LMS starts to rough up our soft forwards and even worse will be the ten minutes that Mard lard Masoe is on the pitch making hard yards and causing mayhem and I will have to cheer. Still I suppose it is a penance.
I agree that Saints look very good at the moment and seem to be a level above us. No argument from me there. I'm impressed with Greenwood, Walmsley at el and have no problems acknowledging that too. At this juncture Saints look nailed on favourites for the GF. I know now that rugby league started in 1996 therefore, saints fans are not bothered about old historical trophies like the CC but I think that they will probably win that too.
On forums you take it and give but hopefully trying to have a sense of humour.

| I just watched the Melbourne Storm game, and it was a bit depressing to listen to the commentators' raving about Blake Green's performance. In truth, he was very good indeed, and looked completely at home alongside Smith, Cronk, Slater and co. Just shows the stature of the player we have lost.

He had the easiest run to the CC final and fluked the GF due to injuries.
Other than that he's be an abject failure. Last season was a poor one apart from a run of 5 games at the end of the year. As much as you don't like it he's judged on results and most importantly trophies and apart from that one season he's not delivered.
Funny how fans think he can't do anything wrong just because he's from Wigan. It's laughable as the results and performances are obviously going against him.'"
Well you can't have it both ways mate. If you are judging him on trophies - you can't then dismiss the trophy by saying we were lucky.
In three seasons he has won 1 of each trophy available. Has any other coach won 3 trophies in the last three seasons?
Who said anything about him doing no wrong? I recognise his faults. We are in a bad way - But he has earned the right to be given time to turn it around surely???
If you can't back a coach with Wane's record who can you back?

Well you should be able to guess from my username... My favourite bike; I've had a couple of them. One yellow and one red.
I came up to Wigan on the bike at the end of last season. It might have been the Leeds game? Friday night fixture, anyway. I remember I had a nice run back heading southeast from Manchester, Glossop way, into Derbyshire. Just lovely around there.

Yup. Brian McDermott - WCC and GF 2012, CC in 2014. We've been awful at times under him but I don't regret the club sticking by him (with hindsight, of course).
