And the sad fact is that our side is made for attacking rugby it it were allowed.
We have fast outisde backs, ball handling centres, off the cuff halfbacks and players in the pack that are explosive or quite good athletes(not just huge plodders).
We haven't got the players to play percentage, safety first rugby league but thats what we've been doing the majority of the time.

| Quite worrying that so many fans are losing interest - I hope the Chariman is reading this.
It is getting to a stage much worse than the relegation threatening season - at least for much of that season everyone was pulling in the same direction - it feels more like everyone if getting further apart management/team/fans are certainly not united.
Something needs to be done and quickly otherwise many fans who stop going now will not go back.

I agree, I was looking for a happy place, but I think I got lost.
Can I point out that despite all the negativity, the world is not over? Wigan RL will come through this rough patch, as will we as fans.

| Most games this season I've just been chatting with my Dad and not being fully involved in the game. The rugby we play it utterly boring and I've said it before, I think every team in the league plays better rugby than us and that includes Celtic and Salford who are below us in the table. At the Warrington away game I was bored out of my mind with what was on display and Celtic away.....well.
The only highlights for me this year have been Bradford at home and Saints at Murrayfield. Can't remember anything else! Hate being so apathetic about it, but need something to get excited about with the rugby!

Change of coach likely to alter that?

That is the fickle nature of some supporters. As soon as there is even a sniff of glory they will come running back.
Beat Warrington in the semi-final and people will be buzzing.

Yes, best news for ages but I won't be going to Hull K R because it will spoil my record.
I have only watched Wigan WIN away this season: Harlequins, Warrington (friendly), Wakefield (twice), Barrow and Murrayfield. Very enjoyable being selective.

Nothing to do with fickle for me bud,
Due to my sister being heavily pregnant (who is my traveling buddy) couldnt go away and now cant as she has twins and cant leave them long enough for away games.
We go to the home games though.
Ill still go next year despite my saying i wont, as im a fan of the club not which ever shower is playing for them at the time!
However if for families cash gets tighter, i can understand them not going as.
It also isnt like 2006 as we were just as bad, but that ranks up with my favorite seasons, and i only missed the catalans games that year!

| I'm not going... I can't be d trekking over the M62 on a Sunday to watch a team that very rarely bothers to turn up just for 80 mins.
I'll still be going to the home games, they've already been paid for, but I doubt i'll be attending many away games, if any.
