You are being patronising. What makes Mike Gregory a legend for us?

GB captain, outstanding try against the Aussies in their back yard. Beat the Aussies in Aus whilst captain.

Led us to a number of finals and would have won much more if it wasn't for the fact that Wigan were full time whilst the rest of the league were part timers.

Well, he basically spent his whole career with us....was captain for quite a long spell, leading us out at Wembley, and giving one of the best Challenge Cup final performances in memory, despite being part of an outclassed side...was an established international....actually captained GB, which I don't believe many Wire players can lay claim to...






How can I miss you, if you won't go away????

I agree lee briers might not be a legend but he has given wires over 10 good years through the bad and some good he has even had chances to leave for other clubs so the guy is alright in my books

Mike was a legend for the club. But in his later days he started to make a lot of mistakes. That is why we shipped him of to Salford.

lee briers has done the first 2

briers hasn't led us out at wembley and hasn't done any of the international things but to be fair when i watched mike gregory play i was always a lot less bothered about what he did for gb than what he did for wire, maybe that's just my preference though...but now i think of it how about the wales aus game when briers demolished them?

but then look at all briers scoring records which mike gregory didn't have and when wire have been through poor times when we struggled to score we always looked to briers, even remember him scoring something like 3 drop goals in a game once to beat halifax

in my eyes what was most important was that mike greg made going to wilderspool worthwhile and briers has done the same at wilders and at hj, absolute legend and thoroughly deserves the title, never even particularly been one of my favourite players but i can appreciate that the guy has been a top servant to our club and i really think other people should appreciate this too

just alright? no chance

my attitude is just fine thx.

like said above theres just something about him that isnt right.

in my opinion ten years service and no trophys or finals apperances tells it own story.


What story is that? Out of genuine interest?






We're the first ones to starve, we're the first ones to die
The first ones in line for that pie-in-the-sky
And we're always the last when the cream is shared out
For the worker is working when the fat cat's about
