On your way


And? Same difference. Your club hasn't won anything for 7 years.

Wigan have won something that some clubs couldn’t win - a Super League Licence.

So there is no difference between greatest and best? Mohammed Ali hasn't won a match for decades, but he is still arguably the greatest!

It's academic though, as your team will never be either.






Newsnight 13th May 2010: "With the role of Deputy Prime Minister a non-job. Has Nick Clegg gone from King Maker to tea maker????"



I kept the faith and I kept voting
Not for the iron fist but for the helping hand
For theirs is a land with a wall around it
And mine is a faith in my fellow man
Theirs is a land of hope and glory
Mine is the green field and the factory floor
Theirs are the skies all dark with bombers
And mine is the peace we knew
Between the wars

Whoosh!! :lol:






23 - 20 - 4

Warrington led 16-2 in Saturday's Grand Final, but their joy was short-lived as Wigan roared back to win the Super League title and extend the Wire's 58-year wait to be champions

Aye, watching your club and that shyster of a chairman resort to desperate measures and blatantly cheat to ensure their survival gave me a good chuckle too. It just completed your clubs fall from grace.

It's good to see your team of antipodean imports turning the corner though :thumb:

It's our young Wigan lads that are helping us 'turn the corner', but thanks for your concerns about the greatest club in the world :) :thumb:

Seriously, are you lot 6 years old or something?

Orrell - You may think Wigan are the 'greatest', others don't and they're entitled to that opinion.

Being the 'Greatest' is a matter of certain attributes matching together to form something magnificant - to which success in the past is one of those. You've probably failed in other attributes.

To judge the 'greatest' club is impossible, because so many opinions and emotions come into play.

Aye, bad evening has made me a little grumpy.. like getting stuffed at Wigan for instance ;)

Not that I like to see people out of a job or anything, but the sooner he goes the better.
