Spot on

I wouldn’t take any of these above Lam.

The club has treated the loyal support with disdain for about 6 years now - the result being that the crowds have dropped by around 4,000 per game.

The bloke is supposedly a shrewd businessman. No shrewd businessman who wants to stay in business repeatedly p!sses off his customers to the extent that they don't buy his product.

Correct on all accounts

Utter rubbish. He’s the man that brought us from relegation candidates to serial finalists, grand final winners, world champions and challenge cup winners. Your comment - loyal supporters who have dropped by 4000 doesn’t seem very loyal does it?
Our chairman has pumped millions of his own money into the club year after year. He must see comments like this and wonder why the hell he bothers!

IL has made some major errors of late so he isn't immune from criticism. I'm not anti IL but the moment the team, the back room staff, just the general demeanour of the club is in free fall.
I can't see a win in the near future and genuinely believe that we are in a relegation battle that we are more than capable of calling flat on our face. After the debacle of Barcelona which bright spark at the club thought the time was right for IL to state that Lam is favourite for the coaching job?

I said "last 6 years".

2012: 16045
2013: 14544
2014: 14102
2015: 13362
2016: 13499
2017: 13668
2018: 11708

Suggests that over 4,000 have voted with their feet.

For a club that pays minimal cost for a stadium, has sold Tompkins x2 & Bateman to NRL clubs & RU, has been involved in most of the Grand Finals, two challenge cup finals, a few WCC's etc, its pretty shocking that they operate at a loss.

The losses have not come from falling attendances but more from off field investments. I’d say the falling attendances are hugely significant but more to do the dull style of rugby that got us the trophies. IL said as much himself when he said his brief to Waney was to win and that attractive rugby was less important. Fans have said they want more attractive rugby and the chairman has acted on it but fans are now not prepared to wait for the transition.
He can’t win!

To be fair the comment was made during the meet and greet the day before the game.

The players I believe do not rate Lam. I got that 3rd hand so to speak over the weekend but trust the source. I want Lam to succeed but honestly don't think he has the ability to deliver. We are a total shambles at the moment on and off the pitch. I cannot recall one piece of good news this season.
Hastings wanted another week to consider our offer. We should have told him to forget it and move on the next target. Just another example for me of non existent leadership.
The performance on Saturday was like watching a horror story. Totally and utterly useless. Lam for me just doesn't cut the mustard.

If you were in Hastings' shoes, would you come to Wigan?

In terms of squad quality, I see many similarities between us an Man Utd in Fergie's last season. He left just as the squad he had developed was about to start falling apart due to age etc. They replaced top drawer players with average joes and the odd big name who never fitted in.

The squad needs a wholesale clear-out, but there needs to be an acknowledgement from the owner that we will not be competing for trophies for a couple of years and then price his offering accordingly. Fans want value for money, be that wins and trophies, or entertaining games. At the moment, we are getting neither.
