I see now as a first time contributor why almost everyone on here regard you as a person who talks absolute rubbish most of the time?
Why thankyou. It is great that you know the opinions of so very many and are able to speak for them.
By all means tell me some examples of talking rubbish.

Yes, match officials do make mistakes, but what was witnessed on Saturday in regard to the incident in question was not a mistake, but downright ignoring what actually happen and from what I have gather, not only Wigan supporters are saying it, but many supporters of other clubs, including some of the true supporters of the
Leeds club.
Hello All,
This is my first post on the site.
Obviously you may have guessed that my reason for living (User name) is Motorcycling but a very, very close second is Rugby League and particularly 'Wigan Warriors".
I went to the Grand Final on Saturday and unfortunately found myself totally surrounded by "The Undead". Not to be deterred, I tolerated repeats of the dirge "Marching on together", I strained at chants of "Rhinos, Rhinos" but my patience was spent on hearing "Yorkshire, Yorkshire, Yorkshire". I had to respond. At the top of my voice I shouted "Typhoo, Earl Grey, Mint and Breakfast"…and it worked! The undead stopped chanting in exasperated misunderstanding…MUGS!!! collectively gave me 'that look'…the look that only the mindless can truly muster…but it broke the ice...they began to talk to me…AND…believe it or not before the end of the 1st half, they…to a man…ALL agreed that the 'knock on' was indeed a 'KNOCK ON'.
Of course that did not change anything BUT we can bask in the knowledge that many from 'The Dark Side' do know the truth!
Welcome to the site Bad Ass, & thank you for helping to clear up the odd 'mistake' by the officials
Loved the response to Yorkshite BTW
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

Welcome BAB, sadly 3 yes 3 qualified professional referees did not see it as a knock on, worrying very worrying!!
