Well done to Wigan RLFC for last night !
With only 20 minutes to go, Wigan were 30 - 6 down, and looking down and out. The match was at Bradfords Odsal stadium. The game was a end of season play-off and a total knockout game.
Wigan won by the narrowest of margins 31 - 30.
Why some watch Rugby Union I have no idea.

Regardless of this franchise rubbish, Rugby League is the only sport worth following. I'd pay money to not see a game of football. Well done, Wigan (through gritted teeth!)

They dont call it the great game for nothing (TGG).

Rugby League is the best kept secret of us Northerners.

I hear that Chris Jackson was a fairly good amateur Rugby League player himself, having played for his home town club, Todmorden, many times in the past..

Just in passing, Rugby League needs a strong Humberside presence.

Hull is a stronghold of the great game.

Wigan BNP also had a decent result on Thursday in the Wigan west area.

Well done to all those at Wigan BNP.

By the way, I had just converted John Tyndall before his unexpected demise, to Rugby League.

He preferred Rugby to football without a doubt.

I sent him some video tapes of Wigan Rugby League matches. He was delighted in them. I also never got them back !

It was an honour to do that for JT.

Rugby League is a a part of northern culture.

The main BNP heartlands are in Rugby League areas.

Just around the M62.

Agreed, but let's call it East Yorkshire. After all, Wigan against Saints is a Lancashire derby, not a Greater Manchester-Merseyside match.
