It would seem Mr Phil ' I Love Wigan ' Clarke has restorted in calling Danny McGuire a cheat on his SS column. What an idiot, I'm sure he'd of said that if it was Leeds Vs anybody but Wigan on Sunday night. I'll await a public apology because this has upset alot of people. Twitter.

But he DID cheat.

Cant remember who the Wigan player was... was it Carmont?.....but McGuire held him back

McGuire is a cheat.


End of.

So you expect an apology from a guy speaking the truth? What a waste of space this thread is.

I am no fan of Wigan, but Mcguire pulled a player back. This was a deliberste act and was a professional foul at best and downright cheating at worst.

Phil "I love Wigan/but have a massive hard on for Hull FC" Clarke will be stuffed after tonight (hopefully)

The comments on that articles are particularly amusing; especially the ones about how maguire only grabbed Carmont because he was injured and not that he injured himself grabbing Carmont.

no different from tomkins conning the ref by holding down the opposition or all the intentional forward passes from sinfield, or o loughlins stepping off the mark all match

its all cheating why pick out mcguire?

No mention of Joel Tomkins deliberate kick on an opposition player for the 2nd consecutive week in his column either

Any of us would expect our player to do the same if it meant winning the match.

He has paid some price, though.

Wow, Sky Sports is like Wigan TV right now. Phil has just been on and i think Wigan must be playing against Wigan (that wasn't a typo) tonight . No biased commentary from Sky and certainly no bias from Mr Clarke.

Stevo tried to balance it out!!!
Cmon Rovers!!!!

I thought Phil was going to disappear up Sam Tomkins at one point!



I wonder if the "gods" will be handing out rough justice again tonight?

from the twitter of Chev Walker:

"Phil Clarke let it go your not meant to show who you support but your ing over them"

So Joel Tomkins wasn't cheating by kicking an opponent or the other weasel wasn't by clamping the hand to con the ref into a penalty. Take off those cherry and poop blinkers Enicomb.

Another Phil Clarke thread

Give it a rest.

If the same situation happened and it was Tomkins who ended up injured I can guarantee you wouldn't let comments like Phil Clarke has made go under the radar.

True, but I would make a comment on here and then leave it. Not harp on and on about it.

Someone has said this on twitter, someone has said this, a poster has said this. It's boring now.

what about when senior nearly took joel tompkins head off at headingley. If you call that kicking out that joel did you seriously must be naive people if it connected it wont have hurt a 5 year old he was freeing his leg and it was being held at one point and he did get a bit frustrated, He hardly tried kick his head off

Watch it again Joel was kicking at the ball.

What blinkers? I didn't mention J. Tomkins at all. Sounds like you are suggesting tackling a player off the ball is not cheating (it is btw).

But since you've brought up J. Tomkins, yes that was silly and reckless and I wouldn't have complained had he bee banned for it; however the disciplinary panel deemed a warning was sufficient. Just like they did for senir when he kicked J. Tomkins in the face in the CC; something most people on here have forgotten.

As for 'the other weasel' well, where to start? The fact you have briers who goes down like a sack of spuds every time he thinks there's a penalty in the offing, or the fact that clamping isn't illegal? Or that the leeds players should have moved away regardless (they make no attempt to)? Or that they shouldn't have put their hand in, in the first place. Oh and I doubt any one noticed but KR did exactly the same thing to Wigan players at least twice tonight, the difference being the Wigan players got up and pulled away.


Take off your anti-Wigan specs and you may be able to see clearer.

Clarky could don a shirt for most of the losers team fans that have commented on this thread and will still have been the greatest player to wear their teams shirt.

And the world listened............ to Chav Walker........

oh course poor sweet innocent Danny McGuire just happened to fall on a player without a ball and pull his shirt back in a crucial playoff tie with 1 minute to go, he was clearly just interested to know what percentage of the fabric in the 2010 Wigan shirt was polyester



he cheated and got what he deserved
