| Quote ="The Penguin"well done for not reading any of the previous posts in this thread.
Ar$e. I could have finished that word off but I won't.
No-one's got on Randall's back - most of us have acknowledged he was our best player up until his brain fart. But it still probably cost us the game - should we forget about that then?
I never said anyone had got on his back - I was just trying to point out the world doesn't come to end because we lost a bl**dy game of rugby. I was using what is pretty much agreed as the turning point of the game to point out how today's forum could have been so different. How many would have been on bemoaning seating, chip fat and all manner of other things if we had WON!
But we didn't have the crowd like last season. So it didn't work.'"
Stand arrangements have nothing to do with bums on seats - lack of marketing and awareness does. Were the club fails time and again!
Take a minute and think about it ... mum and dad and little Jonny are deciding to go and watch a game.
"shall we go and see Quins RL this Saturday"
"No, I don't think we should go love", ...
"why not?"...
"we can only sit in the East Stand or maybe south if it is a bit crowded"...
"yeh, good point. I'd hate to see us loose and have to sit in the East Stand as well."
"Jonny we are not going today, so get your X-Box RU 6 Nations game out, put on your Chelsea shirt and mum's coming with the pizza." ...
"Cheers dad, I never liked the East Stand spoils the game."
OR MAYBE IT GOES MORE LIKE THIS....
"Are Quins RL playing at the Stoop this week love?"
"No idea I haven't seen anything is a single paper around London"
"OK then, shall I just put a pizza in the oven and we can watch Ireland v England"
OR MAYBE IT GOES LIKE THIS...
"Is there still a Rugby League Team in London love?"
"No idea I haven't seen anything is a single paper around London for ages"
"OK then, shall I just put a pizza in the oven and we can watch Ireland v England"
You lot of WUM's need to get in the real world - stand arrangements my ar$e.
Poor marketing thats why there are not many bums on seats, and a economic recession that probably restricted Wigans travelling support.
One night in Feb. does not a summer or season make.

| Quote 1) if Randell had not thrown the pass for the interception and we had gone on to win would you all have jumpoed on here with the usual negatives - I think not! It would have been brilliant this and brilliant that etc.
'"
The bottom line is he did throw the pass and singlehandedly lost us the game. Dont ignore that fact. He did have a good game but lost us the game equally.
The other thing is we have not learned lessons from previous mistakes similar to this.
Why pass the ball at all. 5 mins to go why not 5 drives and a kick, defend in their half, make them make the mistake.
Chad is a great player but made a huge mistake. I also blame the coaching staff. They should have a close out game plan that comes into play if we are winning by any margin towards the end of a game. Teams have game plans to drive the ball up from kick offs............ closing a game out is a vital component of a game strategy

Good point. The coaching staff need to set the agenda going in to the last few minutes, get instructions on to the pitch. However it is easy to get carried away in the heat of battle.
I would say Randell was the best player on the pitch Saturday - but will forever be remembered for this one pass.
Remember HP in each of the last two seasons throw interception passes that cost us both games - and one when he had his back to the play!! At least Randell was looking in a sort of forward direction

| EFH, you have spectacularly missed the point again (with regards to the parrot).
Still seething after I didn't like your "seed"? And neither did others?
But hey, feel free to keep wading in with your overly sensitive, pathetic attitude again in future, its quite amusing.

| What's done is done, my only comment on Sat's game is why wasn't the left wing used more, Sharpy and David were crying out for the ball time and time again.

Would you like me to spell it out for you?
The poster in question comes on here every time after the Wigan match bleating about how Wigan fans outnumbered Quins fans, made more noise etc. Its the same each year, regardless of actual facts.

Yeah fair play.
So now, we have a fortnight until the next home game with Warrington. Assuming we beat Salford - which, even given saturday, we should be able to do - we need 4000+. Its hard to guarantee media coverage/good crowd whilst the Six Nations is going on.

| Not seen the game yet, and obviously was not there! However the comments about Chad losing the game for us really annoys me! So he was the cause of 1 try, what about the other 4 tries the pies scored!? if they had not scored those then the the result would have been different, one play (intercept pass) is not the result maker
What is quite worrying is the attendance! and very interested in the comments regarding the use of the single stand! were the North and south stands open? if so why? thought they were only meant to be open for large crowds?
Lets hassle the club, get the west stand opened again and get the atmosphere building again
Salford away hmmmm well after the cas score this is a game we should win, and same can be said for wire, if we lose either I will worry

The difference is we had the game won at that point and the Randall pass did in fact lose us the match. It was a shocker mate.

Indeed. No point jumping on his back about it but he has to be held accountable.
Looking forward to the Salford match, a must-win game already
