Blinky,

6-12 is hardly a battering more like a narrow defeat,

Paul,



Originally im from a town called westhoughton, near bolton, lancs, i moved up here 4 years ago, but i do go to the odd barrow matches, they are not a bad side and have bought some handy players this season.

I used to play for wigan st pats, then leigh east, then got too old, now gettin fat, drinkin too much beer....

Still not how the mighty warriors would have expected to start the season.

An ex Bradford lad that did the damage!

Paul it'll be like your cup final wont it next sunday. I'm not speaking too soon, in case you turn us over. What do you think?

Much as it p***es me off to say it Woodspeckie, I agree with you.

Good second half blinky, bit of a baptism of fire, some more established teams will lose by more to those scumbags.

Henry africa's....thats a blast from the past, is it still open???, not been there for at least 15 years.

does anyone remember pemps in wigan, roxy in bolton, tropics in leigh???

Back to the rugby, heard today from a good source, wigan's manager Noble has two games to keep his job....

Blinky remember Pemps well ! and tropics in leigh never went to roxys though.

Not bothered about Noble as he is one of the managers which agree with the diabolical rule of no relegation, Then again which manager wouldn`t.
