Hi all
This week there is a review of last week's semi final bit also something a little different
Last night the usual hosts invited 4 lifelong wigan fans to share their memories of the previous Grandfinals back to 1998, their Highs and lows, a season review and their thoughts on the season and a preview of Saturdays Grand Final
Apologies in advance for my contribution
but we really enjoyed it and hopefully it will be a good Pre GF listen
https://spotify.link/111Ch7iAPDbAs an aside they are regularly attracting over 500 listeners per week now on Spotify, Apple play and YouTube (I believe)
Thanks to everyone who's listened and for the feedback over the year (mostly positive)
Just listened to the first half reviewing the old GFs.
2010 and 2013 stick out for me.
2010 was the first time I’d seen us win a trophy, after years of semi finals defeats it felt like our time. Got emotional going into the ground and seeing the flags all over the Wigan end, also when Madge and Lockers came on the big screen stood in the tunnel, the roar from the Wigan end - goosebumps.
2013, lived in Warrington my whole life and losing to them wasn’t an option. Said to my dad after Westwood scored “bloody hell, it is their year”. What a feeling that comeback was. In Sam and Pat Richards last game.
Also glad someone else other than me remembers how good FPN was in 2016, absolutely critical to us winning that GF (as Dupree might be tomorrow)
