  1. Sadly I think Zak fits in a similar category to Hock (although he’s more talented). Everytime he’s on to something good he’ll press the self destruct button. in a post Terry Newton world clubs do have a duty of care to their players to help them right theirselves, because let’s face it they knew who they were signing from the get go. while I know from incidents in the company I work for, had it been me, I’d have been let go from my job. With Leigh, though I don’t know their squad, they probably don’t have the depth to get rid of him. Talent doesn’t excuse crimes and we’ve seen it time and time again where a player gets sacked for off the field incidents then get picked up by a lower profile club. In this instance that’s clearly not happening, but I think at the very least I’d like to see him being given some community works in his role as a punishment.
  2. The Wigan Facebook page has put the following message on “ 𝙈𝙖𝙩𝙘𝙝 𝘼𝙗𝙖𝙣𝙙𝙤𝙣𝙚𝙙 Due to an injury to a Leeds player, the referees and captains have agreed to abandon this evening's Reserves fixture. We wish the player well. #WWRL” i know it’s the reserves but wish for a speedy recovery whatever has happened.
  3. Just seen that Dessert skipper beat me to it… please delete mods!
  4. It’s been reported by Wigan that Maurice Lindsay has passed away! A hugely controversial figure, but he really put Wigan on the map with his vision! Condolences to his family!
  5. More spice to the saga… apparently he’s been stood down by Leeds for this weeks match due to a suspected seizure in training (source was the Leeds rhinos Facebook page) hope he’s ok!
  6. Ok I’m way behind on this one… I’ve just started watching the series Hannibal. If you aren’t bothered by -really- disturbing images and sequences, it’s brilliant! i never thought Mikkeson would live up to Hopkins’ portrayal in Silence of the Lambs, and while I wouldn’t say he’s better… I don’t think I’d say he’s worse either.
  7. Actress Mira Furlan, from Babylon 5 and Lost. I met her albeit briefly at the Babylon 5 convention in Blackpool and she was utterly charming and lovely!
  8. Ok we’re a bit odd in our house and watch Bake Off. Can’t believe people have complained about the opening. Anyway if you missed it Matt Lucas does a fantastic Boris Johnson.
  9. Just seen that Sam McBratney has died. Parents in recent years will know him as the author of Guess How Much I Love You! To the moon and back!
  10. We've started watched Misfits on Netflix (though originally on channel 4). Its exactly what you'd expect with the words "channel 4 decide to do a series about people getting super powers, but they've all got asbo's as well" Iwan Rheon (Ramsay Bolton in GoT) plays a good role and frankly, if they ever reboot Blakes 7 he gets my vote to play Avon. The first few episodes, are a bit full on and I'm glad they calmed down some of the characters a bit otherwise I doubt I'd have stayed with it, but when it hits its stride its a lot of fun.
  11. I’ve got to be honest i wouldn’t have been bothered if I’d stopped watching. I needed a break from Dark though
