Quote: 100% Warrior "I have advocated an NRL coach/assistant but that’s a great point which I had thought of but just accepted. It doesn’t really help us as in reality what we need is stability for 4-5yrs at least, that’s one of the benefits in Peet I suppose.

The concern is though is if Peet doesn’t work out, and clearly isn’t, will IFL/Rads pill the trigger mid season? I’m drained from this season, which has at times been unbearable.

He isn’t and probably wouldn’t be a popular choice but personally I’d back Brian McDermott. He is after all SL’s most successful coach and would be here for the long haul. He’s experienced and would certainly give us that refreshment we need whilst keeping some of our back room staff.'"


If anyone knows BM's strengths and weaknesses, it's IL ... they worked together when London were Harlequins. Granted he had great success at Leeds, but the fact his name is never seriously mentioned puts him in the Ian Millward category for me: an average coach who got famous because he was fortunate enough to be put in charge of a team so good that it didn't need coaching.

Also, we should remember that Lammy was an NRL assistant. So, that's not a guaranteed formula for success either.

For me the appointment of a new coach is a tricky business. It supposedly took us the best part of a year to source and then persuade Madge to come and join us. Surely, because of the complications that will ensue, you can only sack a coach mid-season if his relationship with the players or managements has completely malfunctioned? And we ought to remember that last year we were Grand Finalists. It would have been very difficult to sack Lam then.

Quote: Ruddy Duck "I no longer go to games on a regular basis because of my age and health and for those reasons, I stopped buying a season ticket at the end of the 2019 season. When you have attended and spent as much money as myself in watching the many first team, 'A' team, Academy, Youth, Internationals, Amateur and the many non Wigan games etc at Central Park and the more recent games at the DW Stadium, Edge Hall Road, Robin Park Arena and also travelled all over the country and beyond our shores to support the club, then you can have a pop at me.


I am also aware that your contract of employment doe not stipulate that you have to attend games but it also does not prevent you from booking a days holiday off work, changing a shift or whatever to watch a game which has been the case on many occasions by myself in the fifty years or so that I have supported the club. And I have never just stopped off work and telephoned in sick as you have implied as management would more than likely know that I was a Wigan supporter and know where I was if there was a Wigan game on the same day


I will be long gone before you make a 100% Warrior!'"


You are talking utter, utter b0ll0cks. Everything you just said is complete cr@p. You know it and so does everybody who reads it. Everybody has to book holidays to go and watch games rather than..... i dunno... go on holiday.

You’re a buffoon of the highest order if you think a supposed high tally of attending games is something to go off. I could list my significant achievements in the game and experience but it’s not a weeing contest.

You also have no idea what I do for a job what my shifts are like or how short staffed we are or how hard it is to get leave at all but seeing as you think you do I thought I’d remind you of that. You also have no idea about my personal family life but again you seem to think it should all be shoved to one side to go and watch Wigan - which you explicitly stated you no longer do. Funny how you’ve changed tact hey?

The day I care about your opinion of me or my username will be at the rapture. I don’t have to attend every game, attend every academy game, live and breath Wigan RL to know I support them 100%. I wouldn’t expect anyone to either nor should I have to justify myself to the single worst troll I’ve seen - and we’ve had The Enforcer on here saying we should inject steroids into players. But there you go.

Now off you trot, haven’t you got a fab 4 member to fantasise about?

Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid. Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal. Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_20333.gif

Well said Jimmy. We as fans should not be ripping strips off other fans, which seems to be the case nowadays.
