According to Google, Huddersfield is 76 miles from Hull and 41 miles from Wigan. Doncaster is 47 from Hull and 83 from Wigan. I guess the size of the ground is better for TV, and that cost and availability have to be factored in too. Having us playing at St Helens would cause outrage amongst the Rov...

A few observations: • Williams was superb. Maybe the fact that he didn't choose to come back to Wigan colours some people's view? • Good to see crucial mistakes from Lomax, Benison, Walmesley etc. And wonder boy getting wound up, but that's not unusual. • After his minor fracas with Welsby, I'm sure...

I appreciate the "journeyman" type player (or whatever name you'd apply) as I think every good team not only has them, but needs them. I think this originates from bringing my lads up - one of them played 2nd row for Churwell juniors. He wasn't great on attack, and didn't get enough passes...

As you say, big away following on the Kop at Central Park and great atmosphere at those games and Thrum Hall was a treat for any of our younger fans who...

Correct. He said this himself.

Do we know who our marquee players are?

Great stuff, Marc . . . Thank you. It made me realise that it's only 5 years from us celebrating the first final at Wembley! I won't spoil it for anyone who wants to wait til 2029, but the first try scorer ever in a Wembley final was Syd Abram. Syd was born on Liverpool Road in Hindley and played ce...
