Same old Wire. Plenty of huff and puff, but so little cutting edge. Yet, every time the opposition get near our line, a score looks inevitable.

I expect Ian Watson is sat excitedly next to his phone....

O. K. Price
You're the coach. Time to earn your money. I expect a LOT better.

duckie, warm your engine, and get the meter on for waiting time, SHOULD we lose

Seems to be taking a long time to call held when we are in possession although our yardage gain has been good overall They're getting a much quicker ptb to be fair to them.

Philbin was really good in the first half, Hill too and hughes is playing well. It's mostly looking OK bar the all important scoreboard and our attacking play near their line. The soft points given away and it once again looking really difficult for us to score could well see our season end in the next 40 minutes.

Sums him up, no bottle, handed off and he went down like he’d been shot gutted Widdop is going over this lad.

What's our excuse this week, only one please....
We've only played once in a month
We were missing Cooper
We were missing our ball player Lineham
We were carrying some injuries into the game
Ratchford forgot his kicking boots
The referee is cwap
Our kicking game was poor
Austin and Widdop have fallen out as Widdop has had to go back to the shop to get a bigger suitcase to share for the journey back to Oz
Playoff here we go again jitters
We have no WIGAN DESIRE TO WIN WHATEVER......... you decide.

Our intensity dropped across the board after 20 minutes. Philbin went off and instead we had Davis getting bullied and BMM doing his usual cameo.

All style and no substance and not that stylish either.

All the pressure but not enough cutting edge tk get over for the points.

I found myself agreeing with Phil Clark

...... Maybe a second suitcase for Price too
No matter what's happens tonight time to get shut.
Andy Last, no Cruden tial but can fire up a team to give it a go.

Cont'd
Too many mistakes
Too many poor decisions.... On and on and on.

Hull weathered the predictable early attacks like vs Salford, then ground back into the game with the bench pack advantage...
Expect wire to barrage again and FC to fight back.
It’s going to be close.
This isn’t good enough to be Pies in a final.

BMM has limited affect and replacing Philbin is a massive loss in go forward and work rate

If Hull score next we're gone. We have neither the nous nor the intelligence to overcome a two score deficit.

Im there now, I want to take him before the second half resumes with Andrew Henderson taking over.
