I know Ganson is a figure of hate for a lot of people but I am never upset when he is ref for our games.

I actually admire him for having the balls to upset people with decisions rather than take the easy way out like a lot of them do.

agreed, you know where you stand with Ganson and he's more consistent than a number of refs.

please don't tell me we'll be using ganson as an excuse should we lose!
couldn't give a monkey's who the ref is, just want to see a wigan team play their hearts out and come away with the 2 points.

I don't have a problem with Ganson as ref. He's by far the best ref out there IMO. My perception is we also have a decent record with him as ref.

Agreed.

If we were to lose on Friday, it will have nothing to do with the referee!!!

Unless Ganson is ill and Cummins has to come out of retirement

I always preferred Klein. He made mistakes (don't we all) but he never seemed biased as Ganson does.
