<t>Bladerunner, the film, concerns itself with memories and how they matter. Towards the end of the film( Rutger Hauer? ) says a line ,something to the effect of - “ I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe, - attacked ships on fire, on the shoulders of Orion ….I’ve seen sea beams …glittering do...

Re: Statistics cannot lie.

The thing I’d like to know Ian is : “ Do you work out these little problems as a sort of mental exercise, in order to distract yourself from thinking about that young girl in a bikini ?”

Re: faith in wane

<t>I have posted elsewhere that I have faith in SW, and also the ‘Kids’ coming through the academies. We have a good squad. And if, (let’s hope not) we lose the odd match, we won’t suddenly be at the bottom of the league table. Providing we stay relatively injury free, I think we will be contesting ...

I may be wrong on this Kiwi, but I always thought when you were 'overjoyed 'the phrase used was spelt Cock a Hoop.But I reckon SW finds that result"acceptable"

Re: Need I say more??

<t><br/> I’ve read this thread with increasing irritation. I appreciate that (in another world) Alan Hansen said that “you’ll win nowt with kids“ but he was talking about a slightly easier game with less demanding physical requirements. <br/> As a result of watching Wigan over the decades, I have se...

Re: New Kits

<t>Wigan play in cherry and white hooped shirts. We have an honourable tradition.Look at old footage of past matches and it stands out. <br/> We can ring the changes every now and then,and change kit in order to support the team,and there's nowt wrong with that. But, when you see Cherry and White ho...

Re: Sky and BBC in danger of losing rugby league rights to...

<t>Richard Lewis as chairman of the Rugby Football League is quite right to sell the broadcasting rights for Rugby League for as much as he can get. He also has a duty to promote the game as a whole, to get as large an audience as possible. We, as punters, want to see the best coverage we can get.<b...

Wigan's pitch

<t>Just happened to see a bit of the Latics match on television and I was shocked by the state of the pitch at the DW stadium. Now I appreciate that grass doesn't grow as quickly in winter as it does later but they don't seem to have the same problem at say, Old Trafford.- It can't always be the fau...

Re: It's simply the best

<t>Prompted by steve's comments about Saints supporters, I have just spent some time reading the threads posted on "Redvee". Now, whilst they are desperately disappointed about suffering four grand final defeats in a row there is almost no whingeing about the manner of their defeat. They look forwar...
