I see that having had their say, expressed their opinions, most -but not all- of the forum's sans-culottes and tricoteuse have moved on, in the light of the panel's decision and sanctions.

Because unlike the forum mob and it's blind rage, they are qualified and experienced and have a process.

What did you expect? I though you knew that disciplinary decisions should be made by bar-room experts and barrack- room lawyers, not by a properly constituted panel of experienced and qualified appointees.

You mean they don't help themselves by not agreeing with the mob?

But then, you're not on the panel. Presumably the panel decided on the actual facts.

What a shock! Only 71! Reflect everything that has been said already. Such a shame that we rarely get a chance to say goodbye to the servants of our sport until it's too late for them to know. A "This is Your Life" with John Kear would have lasted many, many hours.

Specsavers now do hearing checks.

It seemed to me that Wolfie was below par, right from the kick-off. His injury only made matters worse. HKR's physios must have been happy for him to continue, though. I do hope he's not made the injury worse by continuing.

Is that the 2027 CCF line-up already?

Yes,but thats only the "Official WCC" The real or "unofficial" WCC belongs to Wigan. Compare attendances, for example.

I'd like to say that's a fair and balanced assessment....... ... But I can't .... Because it isn't.

Or borrowed some from Saints.

Lost and gone forever: a large red Norweb inflatable lightbulb from their days as major Wigan benefactors.

Bleedin' 'ell! Someone on the forum even older than me!

But Harry believes not on tighter criteria but in absurd criteria: your place of birth dictated the country you represent. Next he'll be demanding you can only play for or watch Leigh if you were born in Wigan MBC.
