The club doesn't care one iota about its fans anymore, we are no longer supporters, just numbers on a monthly invoice

That little snipped of T&Cs reads like those of a shady loans company, not a sports club aiming to attract, retain and entertain "fans".

It is no surprise many ST holders have jacked it in when you get this kind of treatment. No fans, no club.

As a Salford fan I will just quote my post on our site:

"We are now playing Wigan away next Thursday not Friday. I am most disappointed as I am unable to attend as I organised something for the Thursday evening rather than the more convenient Friday. The statement suggested it was an agreement between both clubs & the RFL. A rearranged match with only 8 days to go? Could I thank them again for ignoring supporters.
Perhaps the game may get more supporters if they were given more consideration."

Since leneghan arrived the club has been turned from a family based club into a business venture and is more than happy to upset it's fans to maintain its corporate image. Everything about the club is business orientated and leaves very little left for the fans to enjoy.

This is very poor, and I do feel for people who've already laid out considerable sums of money to see this game. And the worst of it is, there's every sign that the situation will get worse in the future, rather than better.

I'm looking down the fixture list and wondering what games I can feasibly get to. Thursdays are out, so that kills off Hudds at home and Cas away (went to both last season). Dunno, Leeds and Saints at home and maybe Saints away. Or Hull... I expect I'll end up seeing less games than last year.

Has IL said anything in the past about getting our own ground? Is there any long-term plan in place?

But just on those T&Cs posted upthread: that sounds pretty standard to me; Id be surprised if every rugby (and football) club didn't have similar.

IL has ruled out getting our own ground in the past at fans forums due to it not being cost effective. The state Bolton are in he could get the Reebok for a quid!

Did not get 4 season tickets this year hate Thursday night matches, will just go to the matches that I fancy this year Friday nights only and pay on the door.

I made the mistake and bought another season ticket for this year..... I won't make the same mistake next season

Same here. When I saw the thread last night I actually thought that it was a Latics fan taking the michael.

What season ticket holders should do is boycott the game. Let the team play in front of an empty stadium.
I have some sympathy with IL with regards to difficulties in raising revenues and therefore, understand his desire to play a game a season in London etc in an attempt to recruit new sponsors, fans and users of Wigan tv. However, the delay in announcing this change is either inept or fraudulent and I will let the club decide which of these it considers is the most appropriate.

Thursday night is an absolute awful night for a match and I for one will not make the extra effort needed on my part to attend the game.

Rubbish. The previous incumbents Uncles Mo and Dave drove the club almost to relegation despite numerous cap breaches and to a situation where its assets were negligible. IL is making the best of a bad job with the inherited stadium situation.

Lots of banter online regards the movement of our fixture moving 24hrs. Yet rewind exactly one year ago and it was Latics that moved their fixture against Charlton from the.Saturday to a Friday night to accomodate the visit of Brisbane in the WCC.

Granted their fans had a couple of months notice, not ten days.

The move of the game doesnt bother me,the lack of notice given does however it makes the club look unprofessional in my eyes

Sensible is not a word i would use Brian with anything connected to this fiasco . The sensible thing would to have sorted it out pre season and let the fans know what is/was happening . We are going to go through all this palava again in a few weeks time when HKR are due in town .

Rant over

How's things ? tell Liam that Ross is wearing his shorts on Saturday and see if he is brave enough to do the same . Chickened out at the Catalan's game .

Your the one talking rubbish, what's Mo & Whelan got to do with my comment? I said leneghan has turned the club from being a family club into a corporate run business. Yes he did inherit the situation but sometimes he needs to dig his heels in and grow a pair when it comes to decision making.
