As a teacher I'd be mortified

IM has announced in the Wigan Observer that the players will get a month off and start pre season training a full 3 months before most teams. IM is also returning to Aus this weekend for a break.

Got to hit the ground running was the rally cry

Wigan Evening Post - Wilde and Aspy to Hudds confirmed, Dave Allen talking to London. More to follow.

<t>Dave i think you misread my post<br/> <br/> cpwigan posted: No worrys. I know I'll be a minority view and to be fair he's not done anything other than deserve the criticism people are levelling at him. <br/> <br/> I'm openly saying he deserves to be criticised and my view is a minority one I.E th...

He hits a gap superbly at his best, has a ...
