Quote: ComeOnYouWolves "What is going on at Wigan? Looking from the outside, things going from bad to worse.
The club looks in rudderless. I'm not here to troll. There is soo much negativity and uncertainty.
1. Established players like Tomkins x 2, McIllorum, Bateman have left and not really being replaced although Greenwood has been good.
2. Williams now leaving
3. Aging leaders in Leulai and O'Loughlin (not necessarily bad)
4. Unbalanced squad, too many wingers. A poor front row.
5. Some odd un-wigan like signings in Tautai, Isa and Sammut
6. A stop gap coach and a new coach with uncertainty about him actually coming. If he is looking at it now, does he want that role?
I think you need a new 6,7 and 9 plus a couple of front rowers.
Having said all that i expect a strong Wigan performance on Friday, and i wouldnt be surprised if we get turned over. As much as its quite amusing to see yourselves, and Leeds being so poor (so far this season). I'd prefer to have a strong league with strong teams.'"
All comes down to money recently. Selling for a profit and signing inferior talent for the best part.
There's an irony to it, unless IL invests heavily back into the squad he'll end up losing even more money as fans will be unwilling to spend their hard earned cash on watching a poor product.
