Sorry, but I'm past paying any attention to these nod, wink and "you'll just have to trust me" merchants.
If someone's told you that Kearney's turned us down, then tell us when, tell us who (or at least how he's supposed to know), and tell us the circs surrounding it. If it's not happening, how can it possibly need to remain a secret?
Until such time as you provide this data, I'll continue to hope for someone like Kearney.

20333_1393344959.gif 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 |

A nods as good as a wink to a blind bat! Eh? Eh? Know what I mean?
Baked bean boogie please ignore the voices, they will go away in time.

I feel such resentment after the Celtic game, I just don't want him here anymore...

Not once have i thought to check anywhere to see if he's been shown the door because it simply won't happen.
It's not Lenagans style imo. I doubt he'll renew his deal but i'm 100% sure he'll be here until the end of this season however bad things get.

23997_1287161421.jpg [quote="Mark"]Great game of rugby league. Fantastic atmosphere, Wigan were breathtaking and dominant in all areas for the first 25 minutes, coupled with us making alot of dumb mistakes,then fortunately they brought McIlorum on which helped us back into the game. I thought some of the tries we scored to get us within two we're out of this world stuff. Towards the end we had to force it a little and we had a few things go wrong, i.e Monas kick on the first for King and Solomona going off who was causing havoc. Wigan were clinical in their eventual execution of us. Proud of Wire today and gave us a little glimpse to the future. Silverwood was awful as per, but I expect no less. Tomkins is a world class player and by far the best english player in SL. Wigan are a champion side and would be a worthy winner of taking our title as challenge cup. Good luck over the next month and a bit.[/quote]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_23997.jpg |

It's in the Wigan Observer his agent saying how Wigan need to act now of they want to sign him for next season or else North Queensland won't release him due to them not being able to find a replacment.
He says he expects to hear Lenagans decision soon.

| Quote: cadoo "We would still lack a prop forward and I wonder how much Sean O'loughlin would have improved if Trent Barrett was still here.
The guy though would have papered over the cracks for another season for sure. He is state of origin class - one of the best halfbacks in the world and it was a pleasure to watch him but while he was there we were not a team. We were Trent Barrett plus 16 other players. It sounds harsh and disrespectful but effectively we were.'"
Well given we are now arguably Hock and 16 others I guess we'd better show him the door as well? Some player not as good as him will no doubt improve if that happens to be slightly less good than Hock.
I don't agree we were not a team with Barrett here any more than we weren't a team when Farrell was here, or Edwards or Hanley were here.
The problem with star players at Wigan, if there is one, lies with the other players who if you are right must be sitting back and letting the star do all the work.

It wont happen.
We are looking at players for 2011 when we will be able to do something with the cap.

| Ian Lenagan needs to do something now!
If he's working towards 2011 then we'll be the new Widnes by 2012.
Decisions have to be taken and announcements made.
If this continues season ticket sales for next year will plummet.
Should we lose the next two, home attendances will go through the floor!
Action needs to be taken with days, not weeks or months!

12324.jpg Best Wigan No7 ever
[b]Terry Newton Wigan legend RIP[/b]:12324.jpg |

| Wigan must be full of toys and dummies that have been thrown out of prams since the Celtic game.
This getting beaten by sides that we think we should beat go' back to the 80s well before Noble and I.L. took over the club.
And its not just a player thing its the Were the Famous Wigan Rugby and we will win this easy mentality of players and Fans.
Teams in the top half of the league we will turn up with the this is a hard game attitude and the ones in the bottom half we turn up with the we can win this just by being here and i feel it will not matter one bit what players we bring in they will get the same mindset and i do not know what the answer is may be if we do finish in the bottom 2 that might change the thinking of some player who come and think we have the god given right to beat lower placed sides.
Celtic did a job on us slowed the game down and got lucky a few times in the last 20mins with 2 on 1 tackles where the ball was ripped out and not spotted we then got frustrated and gave away field position which lost us the game. We also played Ainscough with a damaged knuckle and Roberts with a Hamstring problem which did not help.
At the end of the day we lost a game lets move on to the next with hopefully a full fit team to pick from and win that one.

39110_1363272058.jpg 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

Player wise he should be looking at 2011 as people have stated we will have more on the cap so that is only sensible.
A decision must be made on Brian Noble's future should be made now, if IL still wants him next season let him be brave enough to come and tell us in the press or if he has in his mind that he will not be here next season then we should get rid now. Teams always see an impact when a new guy comes in anyway, just a suggestion though, not saying this is what I want.

My feeling exactly.
We have about 8 players off contract for next year so surely we'll have more then enough room to move for 2010.
If we don't then we never will as 2010 was always the year Lenagan said would be the time we'd start seeing high profile players coming in again and not cheap 'chance' signings as we've made so far.
