Same old boring rugby yet again, when oh when are they going to invest in an attacking coach because my season ticket won't be renewed unless we do.

Looked like less than 10.000 there for the big one that used to attract 20.000 plus.

Not surprising seeing the awful rugby from both teams.

I counted eight penalties against us for lying down/interference at the play the ball. Sounds like it was us who went for spoiling tactics.

There's a reason the ground is a soul-less place to be and that's cause 3-4k regulars disappeared over the last two years (if not more), let's face it the club are doing a cracking job of massaging those attendances. I sit in the South Stand and it doesn't feel even half full.

The only time I actually thought we might do something in attack was when Bateman or Lockers got the ball. Sam is a shadow of the player he was and I think he would be better suited to playing 6.

Watching rugby is a luxury in a competitive entertainment market. The way we play rugby is insanely dull.

At the moment I watch the team through a sense of loyalty, I don't look forward to the games, I don't enjoy the games and I don't enjoy the atmosphere in the ground.

Did you have any patience to begin with Jon? You probably had this post typed up before kick off.

That was horrendous though, probably our worst performance since that infamous Widnes game last year, and the only shred of positivity I can take from tonight is that we recovered from that game to become Champions little over a month later, and while the Super League might be out of reach for this year we still have one trophy to play for and maybe tonight can be the catalyst to get us to Wembley.

Ive been in the sense of loyalty camp for about 3 years and tonight posted for the first time in weeks trying to pump myself up for the game because if I'm honest I wasn't really arrised about playing Wire when a few years back after Saints it was Wire who I wanted to beat the most.

I sit in the south stand and there is no atmospheres again tonight. Everyone trudged off tonight in silence I think stunned how awful that was.

I can excuse attacks breaking down due to good defence or just poor execution but I can't excuse lack of intensity or urgency. I have more urgency in me after a round of beans on toast followed by a few pints of Guinness than that team has at any point in any game.

Too many highly paid players incapable of playing 80 minutes is soul destroying to watch.

I very rarely post on here anymore because there is very little to post about of interest.

It's sad that it takes an awful display to generate a bit of interest on the forum.

Quote: jonh "As much as I love Wigan RLFC am I genuinely the only supporter who no longer enjoys watching this team?

I watch nearly all the other teams and only when they play us do I see them drawn into a dull 1 out snoozefest.

We have talent in this team but absolutely 0 direction.

Only when we look like losing do we start to play rugby.

For me we need a wholesale clear out of the coaching staff starting with Bitcon and finishing with Wane.

No team has been affected by injuries like us in 2 years and equally no team looks so lacking in any atacking ability and also defensively poor.

Time for a change for me.'"


I agree. The (too many) injuries have been masking the problem with coaching and tactics. Even with the injuries we should have won some of the close games we lost or drew and would have with some tactical nouse. Which would have put us well up there with a top 4 chance which is a bit of an indictment on the competition itself but nevertheless just highlights how poor we have been not to take advantage.

We need a coach who doesn't have mates in the team and a coach who can set the tactics according to what he has available player-wise and adjust things for how the game is going. We can't even decide if we should take two points for a penalty.

As to an answer to your first question, no you are not the only one who no longer enjoys watching this team. It's a chore and if nothing changes in the off season then renewing the season ticket is going to be a long hard decision.
