This place is like being "Through The Looking Glass" at times.


Is there any reason For Scholars to want the Bronco's back in this fixture given the previous circumstances ant the fact that it is an exercise to attract sponsors .

Last 2 seasons Wigan have beaten the Scholars .

2015 10 - 28

2014 0 - 48

Both Wigan teams were made up of almost entirely U 19 or Dual Registration players . Is there really any mileage for Rugby League in Wigan playing a full strength team and putting say 100+ points past the Scholars ? Would do neither team any good IMO .

Can't really understand some peoples hatred of other teams. I am no supporter of say Saints , Leeds or Wire but can appreciate the rugby all 3 play at times (usually against Wigan lol) .

Someone asks why I did not take the post? I was not impressed how Wigan was being run at the time by Lindsay as a person, though I had respect for the way he turned the RFL around with Super League, it was a post I would have liked, I did some training with Graham McCarthy then Warrington Club Secretary, but I was in a good career in radio and I am no mercenary, job centre? I only ever applied for one job when leaving school in radio, was head hunted each time after. If only some people could just read and not look for faults all the time! but I suppose that may be hard for a few.

No one should hate any club! and I would never.

So you wanted the job & still turned it down?

Unfathomable.

Cn you choose to pick out what you want in a post again.
Think what he said was it was a job he would have liked, then went on to explain the circumstances as to why he chose not to pursue it. Lots of people do that with lots of jobs, so totally fathom able.

Only in the parallel Broncos fan universe where a success like Maurice Lindsay is deemed bad for the game & a club wrecker like David Hughes isn't.

jaybs.

He never stops banging on about the supposed ills caused by Lindsay & Fat Nige while blowing smoke up the backside of one of the worst owners in sports history.

You will note mickyb I said how much Respect I have for Lindsay how he turned Rugby League in the Modern Game, but someone again only reads what they want to read, it never changes and never will!

I went to the game and the meal beforehand. Lenegahan spoke and made it quite clear the 'biggest brand in world rugby' (his words) wants to extend its reach and the south east is the biggest area.

Absolutely no mention of the Broncos

Expect to see more of the cherry and whites in London!






Mac out!
