Love you too Lefty.

Only joking mate. You do write many top posts and some funny ones too. It's all heat in the moment.

I don't really mean it X

Apologies too mate. All heat of the moment x

He/she did the same with me last weekend, there was no need for it, and they pretended it didn't happen. The same thing has happened to you, and again no need for it. I'm done with GW.

Everyone has differing opinions. But to call them laughable or drug based, isn't helpful - although it would be interesting making some comments after taking drugs - they probably would be laughable and quite fun.

Peace to Wire71 too. I was slightly narked that you addressed my insults to others without addressing the initial ones to me. But hey ho,
we're all Wire fans, and if we were all together having a pint, I'm sure we'd all be having a great time. We're all on the same side - fingers crossed for next week

I'm really hoping we win next week so I don't look like more of a pr!ck than I already do.

Not sure when it happened, pity because Simon served his director's apprenticeship when Peter Higham was Chairman and the club was in a different place. Learning the hard way.
A number of successful business people have thought they could manage a RL club, only to find out how difficult it is and now different it is to normal business. Whether this has influenced what is happening I don't know. Look at the top clubs, Saints, Wigan, Leeds - all long term chairman, they know the game inside out. Have we lost that ?

Sorry, this is bull. You accused me of insulting you, I was certain I hadn't, I asked you to prove it and you couldn't. Sorry, but I won't stand for BS like this.

I'll ask you again then, find me the post where I insulted you. (Money on no response).

You can’t even understand sarcasm or irony. Still that doesn’t t shock me !!

You struggle to handle any criticism without becoming personal and unpleasant.

Top 5 is your recent post like it’s brave, With this investment and these players top 5 should be minimum and anything less is an embarrassment.

Powell is not the man to lead us through the next few years. His statement Pre season regarding a lighter pack, his decision to bring Holmes with him and persevere; his decision to get rid of Cooper mid season; his decision to get rid of Mamo for Mateuivua; his shameful criticism of Dean; the fact we’ve conceded 30+ points in 12 out of 22 matches; Shall I continue.

There is no obvious answer but anything g is better than tbe shambles we are atm …

Well done correctly spelling those two words.

If someone responds in a personal way about a post I've made, I'll get personal back. But it's heat of the moment. In the same way that It's heat of the moment when it's sent in my direction.

Top 5 is where I'll think we'll be next season if Powells in charge. Its not particularly brave, just how I see it and reasonable given the additional changes next season.

Still waiting...(I can smell the BS from here)

Capitulation. 39 minutes we did ok, as soon as we conceded we were done.

We were lucky Harry Smith dropped the ball twice on our line, of it could have been 60.

Those blaming Ashton for playing the ball “too quick”, think about it a little longer. A guy can run 50 yards, get in the floor, up again and play it before anyone can get within arms reach… it is anyone but Ashtons fault.

Still, conceding on half time, softening up later on and giving up entirely… par for the course.

Got the subs wrong. Jason Clark got about 25 minutes. He’s not an impact player, so if you pick him, play him for the grunt and grind. Holmes can’t play middle, the first try shown that. Mikaele isn’t fit. The bright lights were Thewlis, Wrench, Ashton and Walker. Ashton aside, they have been the ones dropped week after week.

Williams, for me, is like watching Langer in 2000. Too good for those players around him, too fast for those fans to understand why.

Is it Simon moran taking a back seat or is it since we lost gatcliffe in 2014 (I think) and the new ceo not getting the players Tony Smith wanted. Because since gatcliffe left. We haven't had the same standard of player come in bar 1 or 2. And the standard has got worse under Fitzpatrick. With Fitzpatrick covering his lackluster recruitment (on behalf of the coach) with stupid gimmicks on the field and stupid authority to take to social media. Or hire a plane to fly over stadiums. Or whizzy rascle. We don't care about gimmicky crap. We just want to be entertained on the pitch by the payers. And sadly. Everyone is at fault. Powell for the performances. And Fitzpatrick for not securing the calibure of player that we expect. Its not a real comparison. But it's like Powell saying. Go get me benji marshall. And Fitzpatrick comes back and says. I couldn't get you benji. But I got you Tyrone Roberts instead. He's apparently really good. He's the 3rd string stand off and he played really well in the 10 minutes I saw of him on YouTube.

Lads stick to the match or it's locked there's plenty to talk (civilly) about. BTW Divorce proceedings are underway now that Aunties charm has faded.

Quite enjoyed the first half and I tend to agree with posters thinking that we were guilty of trying too hard. I'd be sticking with Ashton Thewlis and Wrench yes mistakes were made but these are also our most enterprising players. I also agree with Just Browny (I think) about Wigan's kicking game being on the front foot you can't always simply blame the catcher.

Aunties take was that we bombed our chances whilst Wigan took theirs, some with an element of luck I think Wigan deserved their win but had the rub of the green to exacerbate the size of the defeat which wasn't totally a reflection of our effort.

I do recognise and accept that old Gary Player adage about the more I practice....and these results and second half collapsing happening every week is a collective responsibility players and coaches alike.

As far as support goes decent in the first half but the Cooper calling was poor as was the disappointingly obligatory beer throwing from the back .

Agree with loads of this. Ashton ptb, someone should have been there, perhaps Wardle or Currie on that flank.

J Clark should have been on early second half as we looked more vulnerable

The bright lights were good and looked exciting going forward apart from some costly individual mistakes. That's the risk.

Williams isn't excellent every game due to the lack of forward momentum, and therefore our players probably weren't used to utilising this. With more game time and a stronger set of forwards next year, it'll all come together.

I think. As I haven't seen any reports to the contrary. Atleast we ain't attacking our own fans at the moment (too many games where ive seen our own fans attacking each other dur to results and difference in opinions) and we are all on for what I can see. Mostly on the same side and understand whats hapoening to not be attacking each other.

Shudders.
I don't think I've seen a more useless article on the wing since Ronnie Kettlewell.
If he does play on Thursday, I'll be watching in true 1970'Doctor Who style..... behind the settee, with my fingers over my eyes.

And to think, we've shifted Lineham and Charnley aside, to accommodate him..... Double shudders
