Andy f*&%ing Burnham!!!
Don't get me started on Andy f*&%ing Burnham, the bloke can't even get a few manky shops knocked down on Borsdane Ave Hindley. Yet can find the time to swan off to the Ukraine on a jolly with Lord b@3tard Smith hoping to get their Olympic team to station themselves in Leigh
Yes I did say Olympic team in Leigh!!






When Maurice sold me to Leeds something changed, it just not the same, the passion inside me just wasn’t the same as running out at Central park for my hometown club.
We need a change of culture here; we don’t want to be just happy with playing ok on Saturday at St Helens.
Ill make sure that from now on things will change, that players will be under pressure and will train a lot harder than they have before.

The Latics don't have any fans, yet alone any famous ones.

That's actually not a lot for the role he's taking on. I bet he has to take a pay cut to do the Sport England job.

aye...its only £112k a year pro rata, which for an executive position with an organisation like Sport England is pretty good value.

It will make no difference. Roger Draper was a previous head of SE and a Wiganer to boot and it had zero benefit. Draper is now in charge of the LTA.
