Stop it Cheese, your positivity will not be tolerated! We are a backward thinking, poor recruiting club with a rubbish management team and the sooner we all realise it the better!! Stop being supportive of your club.
Seriously, I'd encourage those not happy to go and support Castleford. They can then enjoy the free flowing (so far trophyless) rugby they crave so badly!!
Personally I'll be sticking by my club as I have done since 1979.

| I can't wait to see some of your posts when we mathematically cannot reach the semi's and are comprehensively beaten in the CC Final...I do wonder if your lets stay positive despite the dire season, even worse results and quite obvious lack of willingness to change from the coaching staff will still be alive...I think you will find some glimmer of hope to cling to and I guarantee this time next year, we will be in the same boat minus the quite obvious accomplishments (current champions and cc finalists) you happy-clappers cling too.
Leeds, St Helens, Castleford and Hull will leave us behind next year if we don't make some changes...it could well be a Wire-esque season for us if Wane continues to believe his tactics and the current roster will come good.

Answer one simple question: do you enjoy going to the DW Stadium to watch the Wigan Warriors play rugby?
I don't anymore and neither do the people I go with. It's become a chore because the team simply isn't entertaining.
Wane is the cause of this. He needs to be thanked for his services and removed from his position as Head Coach. One or two great wins at the end of the season do not make up for the dross that is served up on a fortnightly basis.

what do you do if those supporters never come back?
We palpably cannot attract new supporters as dwindling crowds do not lie.
Current holders of 2 trophies can't sell more tha 4000 tickets for a CC SF 10 miles down the road.
I don't hear any upbeat marketing splurge on CC final ticket sales do you?
Something isn't right and it's the quality of play play for me that is at the heart of it.

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 |

What other types of critic are there?
A serious question - why do you think we have sold so few tickets for the CC final? I'm assuming it's a low level of sales but I could be wrong of course.

I genuinely haven't got a clue on ticket sales.
I'm just going off family and friends who aren't going but have always gone previously.
I assume that my family and friends are pretty representative of the fan base

The whole sport in the UK is going backwards, from our so called elite clubs down to the number of amateurs playing. Feel free to ignore this fact.

| There are some fans who support the club through thick and thin and there are those (like some on here) who just like to moan and won't go to a game unless they believe Wigan will win and win by a lot! Is this season's rugby the best I've ever seen? No. Am I satisfied with our current position? No. Will I be there on Friday? Yes. Will I be at Wembley? Yes.
The truth here is that I consider myself a Wigan supporter and by definition I will continue to SUPPORT the club as best I can.
All this negativity is starting to irritate me though so I'll probably leave this forum, rather than get dragged down by it all.

Suit yourself. It's called freedom. Or would you rather read a series of posts where people who have watched this sport for many years ignore the evidence before their eyes and pretend they are still paying for and being served with top class rugby league? For me, I'm quite comfy in my armchair, thanks.

Can't speak for anyone else but I would be disappointed if you left the forum.
You're a regular contributor With views I genuinely respect even though I don't always agree with you.
A good healthy debate is far better than one sided views.

Excuse my ignorance but what does this say?
Do the coloured areas mean not sold?
If that's the case have Hull sold virtually their entire allocation?

Yes sorry, coloured block still has seats available. This is the RFLs allocation though so separate to the clubs though I imagine it will be similar.
