fundamentally the problem is that if you think "hotels are where I stay on holiday and I like being on holiday so living in a hotel must be fun and it's not fair others get to do it and not me" then you have the intellectual reasoning of a little child and it's going to be hard to engage with you

I'm hoping this is the usual Wigan mid season dip before they get it back together for the final run in. It's all about performing at the right time and even though they aren't playing well they're still competing. 5 more minutes and we could have won. Not that we deserved it.
