Oh dear... The point is we are half expecting to lose... Its the week after a cup final, any team would be vulnerable, and any good coach can dress it up as such... You would have no excuse for losing.

That was my point, but I suspect he's deliberately missing it.

Doesn't sound like the Wigan way? and didn't MM want to win all 3?



Excuses excuses

Dress it up whichever way you want Crunchy, your point about it effecting us and raising questions was poor and you know it.



Bookies have Wigan as favs to win the shield..

Gut feeling. I think we will (certainly to push you all the way).



Should we win at Wembley, I woulds expect something like the following: The lads to have a session on Saturday night in London and then be given Sunday & Monday off on holiday (no alcohol), then training Tuesday, which leaves Weds/Thurs/Fri and Saturday before the game on Sunday....easy enough time to recover.



Maguire will have the players chomping at the bit for the Wire game (regardless of the Wembley result), in days gone by under Noble then yes I would expect us to go in half baked, but not under MM.

Finally bit of sense instead of looking for a bite.



Even if we do beat you IMO we have the toughest fixture possible because Hull are in a real battle with there rivals for the 8th spot

1st or 2nd? You say Tomatoe, I say tomato. Doesn't matter really, the only difference is whether it's Hudds or Saints that get the 40 point treatment.

Let's hope so.

You plonker Rodney!!! I am giving a fans view, i'm sure that MM and the squad will be going for a win... You really are a spanner...!!!

So your not confident in your team and MM?

Couldn't agree more.



Everything we've seen from this regime suggests that. If we do lose and play poorly, I certainly won't accept ''well we had a Cup Final last week'' as an excuse for a half d effort.

I think the players will be up for it at wire as they know any half baked performances from them and MM will most likely drop them for the playoffs and a grand final appearance if we make it
