Has anyone else seen his comments about the pitch, how it caused Darren Bent's injury and that the pitch was heavy because Wigan played rugby on it last Saturday.



I'm sure we played Bradford at Odsal, on Sunday, but if I'm mistaken I'll accept that Mr McLeish has a superior knowledge of RL than me ,



Bloody muppet

Probably a little miffed because of the Villa fans' 90 minute protest against him and calling for him to be sacked.



Divert attention elsewhere?

Watching the Leeds game two weeks back I was surprised at how bad the pitch was cutting up.

Charlie Nicholas, that self-wasting scottish footballer, who lanquishes with the other has-beens who through away there football talents and are reduced to part-commentating on Sports Saturday also blamed the Warriors for the state of the pitch.

I have just set the record straight on a Villa forum.

Oh dear. Blaming others and making things up.

Who cares what some random ginger Scot thinks?

Where is this reference to the Rugby? , i've just watched his interview on the bbc website and he didn't make any reference to the rugby

I wouldn't mind seeing Villa go down this season, took O,Neil for granted.

I heard that as well . Started off a well good rant nearly ended with the telly through the window . To calm myself down amd to induce a coma so i could recover i switched over i switched over to the Rugby Union .

I couldn't care less what anybody from that sport has to say about the pitch. Nor do I care about some football tart hurting his ickle ankle on it. I know we aren't to blame, and to hell what anybody else says or thinks.

This is beyond a joke now. Millions of people will believe this nonsense when the truth is that Wigan Rugby have nothing to do with the state of the pitch
