Apologies if this has been posted elsewhere on the board.
A benefit match is being organised for Mike Gregory, I understand towards the end of this month (Eddie Hemmings mentioned it during the commentary on Friday - saw on the re-run on Saturday morning I must add, because I was delighted to be at the game on Friday!).
Joe Lydon is contacting potential players, with some absolute legends lined up for what I understand will be a touch rugby match. I understand that Brian Noble will be coaching the GB veterans/legends team.

That's an embarresing joke if that is Wigan cam muster for Mike.
At the very least, you should stage a match in the pie dome with a full Wigan outfit and possibly invite Warrington too.

I do not think that Mike Gregory is somebody or something that you should use as an excuse to troll and act in a petty pathetic manner over P & B. Unless you have been in a coma the issues between Mike / the club have been extensively covered. Please crawl back under whichever stone you have come from.

I noticed no apology in your last post either, just excuses....
Apologies for my confusion of rubbishing the efforts of you fans who care with the heartless gits on the Wigan board
I haven't attacked the efforts of the fans or St Pat's, but I can understand the confusion from my poor worded post.
..But the board
Defend them if you wish...Payed up contract or not, what they did to Mike sucks.
No scoring points or whatever you want to call it, it happened, period.
