Unofficially the most boring poster on Cherry and White.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_5733.jpeg



So what happens now?!

Clearly Lam isn’t up to the task and the players don’t want to play for him.

Lam to be fair has been given an impossible task with no quality players coming in several going out and a 1 Year deal so authority fully compromised.

Edwards coming or not?! No comment from the club is pathetic and again damaging the club.

Chairman and Rads trying to be very clever but actually just contributing to the mess.

The next steps forward?! Who knows!

The club MUST comment on the Edwards situation.

Lam sadly has to go.

Williams marquee?!

IF Edwards is coming we need to go with Loghlain as player coach, if not it’s time to bring in a proven coach.

Finally and blatantly obviously you can’t expect a cut price team to put bums on seats.

Ideal world-

Lenagan finds a buyer who is as cashed up as he is passionate for Wigan and who isn’t a Koukash style lunatic.

We sort the whole Edwards mess out and by that I mean we bin it off. As I said at the time, if he comes he comes for 2019 or not at all.

We ask Shaun Wane to come back. There’s times that even a Wane backer like me became frustrated with the grinding rugby but by god what a job he did looking at this rabble.

We invest properly in the team. We keep our best players like every other club manages to do. Saints have tied Walmsley, Makinson, Roby and Lomax down yet we can’t keep anyone on anything other then a ‘give us a year or two deal then we’ll let you go’ arrangement.

Our players always want to leave because we hand them a get out of jail card to return every time. The problem at the club lies firmly with Leneghan & Radlinski end of. I now await the Leneghan / Radlinski fan club to air their views about what both have done for the club, but guess what... I don’t care about the past I care about here and now.

Wane decided to leave. He's gone. Get over it. I'll give him credit for jumping ship at the right time given the current squad.

The problem is at the top. We have failed miserably to retain players like Saints retained Walmsley, Makinson, Roby and Lomax and before them it was Leeds who kept hold of their players compared to us. IL's policy of letting them break contracts to leave if they agreed to come back was pathetic and something I always objected to.

You are right about IL needing to find a buyer. He is neither rich enough nor capable of securing sufficient sponsorship for the club. He's basically retired from business so his only asset to the club is how well he runs it as CEO which currently is poor.

Roby is the only question mark on that list - and I do wonder whether he's like O'Loughlin, good enough for the NRL, but just didn't fancy Australia (can't blame him!).

Makinson is too small, Lomax would break down in five minutes and Walmsley came along too late in his career to interest the Australians.

There was definitely something dodgy going on at Leeds though - how that squad wasn't picked apart by the NRL I'll never know.

Good grief.
If we had have cheated, we'd have won a GF by now.
