Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery.......

I will look to the moment, and miraculously, the future will take care of itself.

Radio 5 Live, Sat, April 14th, 2007,...Dave Whelan, "In Wigan, rugby will always be king"

'I was certain, positive, convinced, and yet..........unsure'

'It's only rock 'n' roll, but I like it'

Worry will not prevent destiny from unfolding.

Even though I have gone for Brian McTigue, my Dad remembers another one from way back, who he reckons was one hard case who Wigan signed that came from Cumbria, his name was/is, Bill Hudson. There is a 'caveat' though, as my Dad reckons he was just plain mad !

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS

For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.

For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.

Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row

My mam says exactly the same thing about Hudson, but she still reckons Mac was "the man"
