Very Nice kit indeed !

Sam is either carrying a heavy ball or hes on the vinegar stroke !

nice to see a traditional Wigan shirt back.

There should be a 10% discount ticket when you get your season ticket confirmation letter.

Has one seen the new training gear? If it's of the same standard as this shirt it would be pretty immense.

Hooped socks as well. Brilliant

i think this is the best kit we've had since the centenary season, like it a lot.

i also like the "compound fleece", a very retro look to it, brings back memories of the early 90's.

Just seen the White panel on the back and that's class as well.

May need a name and number now though.

Not present on the fans' version I don't think.

i love it, but im just gonna get the socks.

In all seriousness, I LOVE the socks.

im gonna wait to see how the "whole kit" looks on that chap with the tache (yous know the one) before i make any decisions on the purchasing side

I heard your just going to buy 1 sock and see how it feels, then maybe, just maybe, get the other one, any truth in this ?

correct, ive pre ordered 1 sock!! remember this is the same organisation that that put 'Captian 31' on my jersey in 2008 so it was no bother

And I've known you as that ever since !!!

Nice white band around the neck too, ........................... gives Warrington forwards something to aim at.

Best shirt I've seen for any side in a while.

What a picture! Misty eyes now...

Agree it's Mac, but not sure about others...you could be right.
But I am thinking it could possibly be later, and I don't think 11 is Collier. Could it be Lyon, from the sort of 'stooped' shoulders, or maybe even Tony Stephens?
4 alternative, possibly Jeff Bootle?
Maybe the pic is in a book that gives a date clue or something.

2012 kit is excellent, best since this pic was taken...!

Lawrie Gilfedder?

I think 11 is Tony Stephens, 4 looks like Keith Holden, I dont think 5 is Sullivan though, seems too tall, maybe Lake ?

Thats why I'm thinking it was around 1965 and 11 could have been Gilfedder, although he was primarily a lose forward at Wigan, so Tony Stephens is a good shout.

In the 1965/66 season, Tony Stephens played nearly all his games in the 11 shirt, Gilfedder wore 11 once, he was mainly 12 or 13.


ps.........if you look toward the pitch ahead of the players, is that the C Cup being held up by someone, if so, could it be the first home game of the 1965/66 season after we beat Hunslet in 65 ?

which would make
5. lake
4. holden
11. woosey

still not convinced 5 isnt sullivan...........look at the ears

I love the new home shirt, best one for a number of years. For the away shirt I'd either have Blue and Black, or Black and Cherry hoops.

ggoing to be a mystery for a while methinks.
if im right about it being 60/61 , then its mctigue, sullivan, holden, collier

any later i could be mac plus maybe
4. alan davies?
11 lyon
5 lake...although the shape of head, notably the ears pointed me straight to sullivan

The guy who looks like freddie mercury!! Yeah I know who you mean















Always cracks me up, a grown guy wearin a full kit!! Had a go at windin him up last year tellin him he took a try well after a Joel try given he was in full kit and had Tomkins on the back...he just pretended he'd not heard me and said it was a good try!!
