Ok I’m a touch worried here and this is probably my first and only serious post on the Wigan forums. You like me love your rugby. My love of rugby really shone through me when I quit a job in Italy just because I couldn’t catch Leeds on tv playing in the Grand Final.
Even sadder the night Leeds beat you in the play offs (sorry for introducing yet more negativity to this thread but your lost is a part of my obsession) I rang back home twenty times to see how Leeds were doing whilst they was a beach party going on near by. In fact if I had the money that night I would of got a £40 phone card and asked my parents to put it near the TV so I could hear Stevo and Eddie commentate on the game.
Since coming back from Italy I’ve deeply regretted coming home because it just seemed that I lived for the weekend when the rugby was on. I wasn’t even that jubilant when Leeds won the Grand Final just pleased. Thankfully I’ve sorted my life out since that debacle although some of you might want to argue that.
A Rugby League match is where you get to be with mates, relatives or both and watch a decent game of rugby league. Throw a pint and a burger in with that as well if that’s your thing. Anything else is a bonus and we all get our chances to archive that bonus.
Cheer up if you can.
