I was boring the girlfriend to bits after with the tale of Rads that day. Only sport could throw up a tale like that.



The people who were there that day will remember his performance till the day they die.



I can think of no better man then Rads to present the cup final shirts to the players.

what a great occassion that would be, after the final hooter at the Bradford game for Rads to come on the pitch and present Wembley shirts to the 17 mighty warriors who will do battle with the "whinos"

Thats crazy!

Good plan. You might want to monitor a few bumps and knocks after the game and in training the following week before you name the squad though.



Not wanting to rain on too many parades or anything.

I think a mystery 'race against time' injury sort of story in the press is in order from us next week!



The combination of poor form, last seasons disappointment (plus a long line of Challenge Cup final failures) and the fact that many believe you'll hammer us (not that I agree with the latter) has led to the poor sales.



It doesn't surprise me at all, we've been fed on success for a few years, and a couple of poor seasons has seen the floating fans disappear as quickly as they arrived, something which the Wigan faithful are probably familiar with themselves. I understand some may not be going for financial reasons but I wouldn't miss it for the world.



But in all honesty I couldn't care less if you have more fans than us, because as I've said elsewhere, having more fans in the ground doesn't win you anything.

Quality ,







That would confuse Gaz Hock , he'd think he have another game that night if he had 2 shirts at once

Of course.



We saw that in 2002 and it could happen again this year. The beauty of 2002 from my point of view was that I knew that all the Wigan fans at the ground were the real hardcore supporters that will go to games even if they're pretty confident it will end in defeat. We all went to have a good day out and didn't expect a result and what we got in the end was a day that will live long in the memory.



When we lifted that trophy it didn't matter if we had 10, 10,000 or 100,000 fans in the ground to me. All that mattered was we'd beaten the old Enemy in a cup final and we had final that would be remembered forever as The Kris Radlinski final.



Great day.

I live in hope

i remember my father in law saying your not wasting your time and money going to watch wigan getting beat. and my wife said do you think we would miss a wigan / saints final.the rest as they say is history

Yes we were there and thoroughly enjoyed the day in Bonny Scotland.



God bless Kris Radlinski's toe, I bet Mo was sucking the poison out all night

Close your eyes and try and imagine the above scene without throwing up.
