I've also heard this about Ricky, apparently it was all sorted some time ago but there has been no announcement yet. Can't say I'm too bothered, he's never impressed me too much. Danny Sculthorpe is much better, and even Quentin has surprised many (but not me, I wanted him to sign when it was first rumoured 2-3 years ago) since he arrived. No place in our squad for Bibey, and I can see him sinking into obscurity with that Stuart Jones bloke we've all forgotten about.

I agree with you guys- Bibey isnn't gonna make the grade at Wigan.
A couple of years ago when he first hit the side i thought he had alot of potential but the just doesn't seem to have progressed.
Wigan never let kids leave if they think that they will make the grade - apart from Long, who has made a big impact since leaving Wigan??
We have more kids coming through and in Danny Sculthorpe we have a world beater.

Got to agree with this one...all I can remember from him was his game at Salford when he got binned and we got beat....also got to agree with fraggle over Quentin I thought we should have got him a few years ago when it was first mentioned......

Binned? I'm sure the card was red, making him the first Wigan player for years to be sent off in a league match. Although to be honest the game was so depressing I can't remember all the details except that we should have won and threw it away. But in any case it's hardly the kind of record anyone would want.
Ironic really that Bibey, who made that wrong kind of impact in Happy Frank's last game before he got fired, has been effectively replaced by Pongia, brought to the UK from France by the same Mr Endacott...

You are right Fraggle it was a red card. He took Michael Hancocok around the head - Bibey walked and Hancock was seeing stars!!
