Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery.......
I will look to the moment, and miraculously, the future will take care of itself.

The hardest job in the game is, under those circumstances - impossible.
IL has been trying to get a new coach so even if he had a heavy night on the scrumpy (nothing works like scrumpy) and gave him a new contract everyone would know it was his second best option.
He should simply have been told it would not be renewed then he could have said he was going at the end of the season regardless. Everyone would have known where they stood and no one would have been left looking like they have backed down or lost face.'"
Yep. Should all have been resolved by now. Even if we won the CC I dont see how he can stay with all that has gone on. It just hasnt worked out for some reason.
That being said, we are all in agreement that we are missing a decent halfback - we havent got one - and a world class prop - we havent got one - it would be interesting to see what Noble could have done with that. Not that I expect the new coach to have those either  |

I chuckled when I first read that bit. I thought, yeah no one's gonna stop us until we play our next game but fair play to you. I get the spirit of your post.
I think it's time for us all to dig in and get behind the Ancient & Loyal badge ala 2006. Yes, the team is flawed, so is the coach and probably the administration too but it's the Wigan name we follow. It's upto us the supporters to represent the club with passion and commitment during these difficult times. Get some steel back in yer bollox and hold your heads up high. We are the greatest club in the world.

Warrington led 16-2 in Saturday's Grand Final, but their joy was short-lived as Wigan roared back to win the Super League title and extend the Wire's 58-year wait to be champions:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10174.png |

There is part of me that thinks if we win the semi final then noble will get a new contract.
Lets face it, if he takes the side to wembley it will be difficult for the club to turn him away.
The only hope for the noble haters is if Noble will be gone before the semi.
We have one hell of a tough month coming up.
KR AWAY,
Quins Home
Catalan Home
Bulls away
Leeds home
Saints away
All before the wire semi.
I can see us winning our next 3 and hence he will survive. I have to admit though there is part of me hopes that we dont. How bad has it become for me and im sure many others to think like that

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

I am still backing him while he is here, when he has gone I don't think I will care too much but will be thankful of what he did for us.

Noble IMO can only stay if we win the league it’s a simple as that.
Winning the league is the only way he can cover up for the woefull performances at the start of the season under the banner of the season is won at the end.
If we don’t win the league then it’s proof that all the matches matter not just the ones with 10 games left.
There are no excuses for the stupid decisions he’s made from the very first day of the season
-Resigning Mathers
-Starting last season’s yp of the year runner up and top forward try scorer on the bench in the first game of the season. Joel had earned his stripes the season before and we can all see the hit his performances have taken
-Playing musical positions against Wakey with Lockers going to stand off instead of playing Mcilorum
-Sending out the orders against Hull FC to put the ball up the middle and grind the game out when we had them on the ropes
-Dropping Shaun Ainscough when he was in scorching form(lets not forget which players started out mini rivial) 4 tries against Wakey and dropped?
-Dropping Sam against Hull KR when he’d scored the winning try in the CC the week before and rushing Piggy back
-Constant poor performances from the likes Fielden & Riddell but yet no kick up the or Accademy games for them?
-The Celtic fiasco
I’m sure others will have more to add as well.
Let’s not beat around the bush here we have under Noble’s guidance been terrible this season. We’ve lack organisation, skill, consistency and I don’t think the players fear him either.
