Somewhat OT question...what dies the W.A.R.R.I.O.R acronym you see on Wigan training kit etc stand for (its painted on the wall of the gym behind Flowers head in the interview)

Using Faceache as evidence for anything automatically defeats your own argument.



I mean, social media isn't full of outrage junkies with manure for brains, willing to be offended by anything, is it?

Where's the "like" button.

Perhaps Ian Lenigan should turn his attention away from Oxford United and look after Wigan RLFC's PR.

He'll look after the good old PR tomorrow so don't worry yourself!



A rather big announcement to take the spotlight off our returning prop and overly honest coach wouldn't go amiss.



After that he'll go back to Oxford United and carry on putting his energy in to them winning the champions league.

He sold Oxford last year,

www.oufc.co.uk/news/article/0004 ... 17070.aspx Sorry - he sold a stake but remains deeply involved. I would not look too closely at Oxford's finances or business model. It does not make pretty reading. Perhaps Rogues would like to comment - he usually has a view on the inner workings of clubs and their chairmen

just wanna say, what a guy. well spoken and fully remorseful. hats off. lets put it past us and move on! (promise you the next game you have v saints sky drag it up)

Did no one else find it embarrassing that he got a standing ovation? I'm glad to see him back but that was totally over the top IMO. I guarantee Lockers won't get a standing ovation when he comes back!

It was spot on imo.



For me he was slightly let down by the club and hung out to dry by others in the game. Last night was the fans getting behind him and giving him much needed support.

Not at all.



If he was a muppet like Hock then fair enough I'd want to get rid but he's a good guy and you can tell he's been through a tough time.



Like Wane said 'we look after our own'. He's been fantastic for this club and that night will haunt him forever. He's had his punishment but last night was just the fans chance to say as a collective that they forgive him.



And to be fair with the emotion of that night I'd have sacked him but you soon wise up and realise everyone makes mistakes.

I found the cheesy announcement of sam by IL at half time more embarrassing than the applause ben deservedly got upon his return to the field.



on the flip side, it was good management by wigan to get the announcement and signing sorted to take some of the media limelight away from the whole "6 months ago ben did this" thing, whether it was intentional or not.



more so, I actually felt a little sorry for rocky, who has been almost dynamite since his return to the team.

It was a natural reaction from the fans to say to Ben that we forgive him and we're happy that he's back. I thought it was quite emotional and I reckon it lifted Ben no end.

would you have preferred the fans to do nothing and let the Wire fans Boo's get to him instead.
