and Peacock and JJB and Mathers and Briers and Senior..................................

I see no sly digs in it at all personally.



However seeing as he is one of the biggest whinge bags in SL, who has previous for contesting every aspect of the game that he "feels" disadvantage his team.



His opinion is pretty worthless imo. Well maybe not worthless, but inconsequential at least.



Would he have a public opinion if we were not playing Wire on Sunday?. I think not.

He gave an opinion because he was asked the question.

Further to my last, your very own Phil Clarke has just said that Sam should have copped a 1 match ban. Strangely enough most Wire fans think that the fine by the club and suspended fine by the RL are adequate.

Hang on when Did Maguire stroll up to a pre game Microphone and give it..."I’m king of the world, I am the greatest. I shook up the world, I’m king of the world, I’m pretty, I’m pretty, I’m a bad man. I’m king of the world. I’m 37 years old and I ain’t got a mark on my face. I’m pretty.......Tony Smith you chump, I bet you scare yourself to death just starin’ in the mirror. You ugly bear! You ain’t never beat nobody but tramps and has been’s. You call yourself champions Your too old and slow to be champions”......?????





I seem to have missed that particular interview on Boots n all.........which is a shame really he sounds a character the twisty faced one

Nothing at all wrong with the Smith interview or the Madge one for that matter. They gave their views and there was nothing at all controversial in them.

As usual people are reading things into them that don't exist.

He says it how most honest RL fans see it and not like the one eyed tripe posting bilge type fans on here. For me he gives an honest opinion when asked.

I've read body language for the last 5-6 years he is not very comfortable in that interview at some points he is but others he aint

you're obviously an expert in this field.... i cant understand why everyone isn't agreeing with you.



'he is not very comfortable in that interview at some points he is but others he aint'.

I've seen all the TS interviews this season and he usually calls it as he sees it, there is nothing cryptic about him. If he thinks Sam is brilliant it's not secret code for 'actully i think he's a sh*th**se'.



You never know though it could be secret for come back to the team you supported as a boy wearing your Alfie shirt

Tony Smith has never been the most convincing speaker seems to be a bit shy and reserved.

His unconvincing interview technique seems to be the only thing anyone can have a go at him for tho,



I'm happy with that...



He is clearly impressed with ST for the player he is and the ability he has got.



He clearly sees that there are things about his 'persona' that aren't the best.



Like it or loathe it he could / should be the poster boy of RL in the future, he has everything and if promoted right he could help the game.



Or he could damage it.



He is in the spotlight because of his talents, that brings with it a certain level of responsibility. All he needs is a mentor of sorts (i.e. big lad who can smarten him up now and again)



Surely as wigan fans you'd be happier if no one could fins anything to criticise him for.



You'll know he's sorted himself out and become what (we all honestly hope) he can be, when we just start calling him ugly...
