That’s what I said earlier.
Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.

that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Perhaps Wire pay their juniors more money? We have plenty more lads coming through the system we just need to tie down the good ones.

One for Meds, Jack Hughes is now available 😀

I like Jack Hughes, still friends with him from his academy days here.

Pity he was pushed from being an excellent second rower into a centre, which I told him would happen when George Carmont left, he replied ‘I’m too slow to play centre!” But they still put him there & that ruined him at Wigan. The fans gave him abuse & he left & went to Huddersfield, then Warrington. Sounds very much like KPP!

I always liked J'Accuse and thought he was messed about like Lee Gilmour because he was talented enough to fill in gaps where needed and couldn't therefore nail down a permanent position.
That being said, maybe too far down the line to bring him back.
Shame about Nicholson but looking at Matty Peet's statement, it seems as if the player decided that he had more chance at Wire.
He'll need some luck with Daryl Powell's chaotic running of the team.

Back to Nicholson. Perhaps it is a wake up call for Wigan. Rather than relying on loyalty, we need to get players to sign on the dotted line.

As the saying goes you can't keep em all,sadly it's not pokemon I suppose we fans have to trust the coaching staff to get the calls right, I'll say this though and it's not a go at the lad the club did the right thing letting him go immediately no point in him hanging round if hes off to pastures new.
