You are so lucky to be able to remember so far back 😊 I’ve a job to remember last season at times 😂
Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

If it’s proved to be connected to having Early Onset Dementia, can you sue the RFL for not protecting you from the emotional battering you have received supporting a club?
We have the history Sentelins wish they had

Hi,
I'm really pleased people enjoyed the interview with Green. It took me ages to get him, and I needed Graham Starkey, Roy Seddon (the scout who recommended Green to Wigan) and John Gray to convince Green to speak to me. In the end, he was fabulous to deal with.
I've now interviewed so many Wigan legends over the years that next year I hope to have a book published with them all.

That is great news, will purchase your book & look forward to reading it

You can confirm on here hopefully when it is when published, I’m sure many Wigan fans on this site will also look forward to reading it.

Thank you 😊

Count me in as well. Perhaps you could ask the players you have interviewed to sign copies?
