well, no more Sport England funding then. No further excuse not to resurrect the GB team. And will someone please wake up the people who are supposed to run this fekin sport & get their fingers out of each others' (failing to put this politely) ar**holes. Because that's the only reason left for their continued collective failure.

if there is such a good fan base in Coppull/Chorley, surely someone on here can give you a lift - put the word out!

We have lost more quality players than we have unearthed and that for me will always the be the issue with Wigan's reduction in crowds.

My own view is the ordinary fan isn't remotely bothered about how the club is run or how much cash it has, he/she work all week to buy there tickets and be entertained if you keep letting quality players go for inferior players you will get inferior crowds

We can't structure junior rugby so what chance do we have at professional level. The shambolic way they have tried to change under sevens in the past six months shows how poorly the game is run and managed from amateur to professional.

Your not wrong mate, the 4 v 4 games are a disgrace

I dont like asking to be honest pal ,but if there is anyone that travels back through coppull after home games I would gladly contribute petrol money .

The pattern continues... 10,787 - our lowest home SL attendance against Wakefield since 2005 and our 2nd lowest home SL attendance in the Maguire/Wane era. Looking forward to a big crowd next week!

After which you can expect the predictable "Where are all these fans week in week out" thread..

It quite simply boils down to watching a poor squad that is a result of an under funded competition.

Why pay to watch something that is an inferior product than previously provided?

Whilst I believe IL is our owner to make a profit and fund his own interests the competition and its salary cap doesn't help.

The solution is to increase the salary cap and vote in the marquee player model. A more exciting product with better players puts bums on seats, attracts sponsors and ultimately revenue. They are trying to formulate this with an extended world club challenge which long term will attract interest and with it £'s.

It's like watching a game in a grave yard

Don,t worry us lot from over the hill will bring 5 to 6k on Friday, normal service will be resumed at least for the derby anyway.

But the point is that RL attendances are DOWN on last year regardless of the "every minute matters"

Do you think Saints V Wigan at LP will attract 18000 in June?

Are attendances lower? I'd say on the whole it's pretty similar, just your men lettin the team down.

And yeh, I'd be surprised if there wasn't 17k+ on for the June game

Yes.
