Whereas we can of course rely on your crystal ball to tell us how someone would have fared had he played!

He was indeed but it's hardly our fault that his testicles are kept locked up in his girlfriend's handbag!

It's called having an opinion and while you might not believe it, or probably more to the point not like it, it is one based on watching how Gelling plays when the team has its backs up against the wall when the wheels have come off. He tries too hard and tries to take the entire opposition on single handed. He is not a team player and his team mates admit they don't know what he is going to do half the time.

Now granted at the moment we don't have much of team at all with our chance of scoring relying on luck or individual skill, which can work against poorer sides, I very much doubt he'd have made a great deal of difference at all tonight.

Is that a fact? I was interested to know what went on.
Perhaps some of ours should have their's locked up then? Do they have to be removed first?
I wonder if Josie has any spare hand bags?

But you've just watched a game where we got tonked and your still obsessed with slagging off a player who hasn't bloody played tonight!

What's the original post about? Gelling and missing him tonight!!
I said he'd lose it first and Dave agreed. So what's the problem?
He has one decent game in four and tonight would more than likely have been in that 75%, if only by law of average.
At 25 year old I'd be expecting him to be ripping new rsoles on a regular basis, the fact is he doesn't!
Now because he's a bit of an eccentric doesn't mean everybody takes him to their hearts?

If that is right, and I am not disputing it, when did it happen?

We lost the game first half when our forwards got battered, I'd love to know what really went on with Scott Taylor, he's head and shoulders above out we've got this year.
Leeds next week and by the law of averages they're due a win.

Taylor was class early on for us and look like the cat who got the cream when he won the CC for us v Hull of all teams.

Yet things must have been so bad here we sent him on loan for his final year of his contract. It's nad player management and I am not surprised he looks a better player in a different team.

It used to bne players who left Wigan never looked that good. Now they look better than they did here (he isn't the only one is he!).

As to Gelling, he'd have tried to win that single handed and would just as likely of made a pigs ear out of it. You can't rely on players like him to turn around a team playing like that.
Taylor was always gonna go to Hull FC, him & all his family are massive FC supporters.

He became unsettled when FC became interested in him after the CC & his missus claimed homesickness!! He then went on to spit his dummy out & that was the start of him not wanting to play for us anymore. If they don't want to play or to be here get rid IMO :angry:
Correct Josie, we do not want players who use the famous name of Wigan as a shop window to get elsewhere.
