This is great news.
Martin is class.
As PC quite rightly states in the BBC article........

''World class three-quarters are few and far between and we are delighted to extend Martin's contract with us, the combination of Martin Gleeson at right centre and Matt King at left centre is a very exciting prospect."

I must have been on planet zog, I didn't realsie at the time that he'd fractured his knee. Yikes.

Great news, as a Gleeson supporter I'm pleased. I've said before, I think he'll be huge for us next year.

Good news for you lot top domestic player, clearly not World Class. I dont know where the Wigan link came from other than speculation.

I would have liked him at Wigan as i feel a new environment could have sitmulated him to perform as he did a couple of years ago which was world class, he has failed to hit those heights since.

Hopefully for the sake of GB and Wire the new conditioner and team mates can encourage him to step up to the level of previous performances.

I also think on current form there for Wigan will be better options for the money but if he does regain the world class form he is capable of then worth every penny of what im sure must be a significant contract.

£500k no doubt,

Your fellow Pies were adamant he had a clause in his contract allowing him to leave Warrington if we finished outside the 6, freeing him up to sign for Wigan.

So you can blame Tricky Dicky for us rubbing it in
