Yes I will renew but only because I love the club and match days are still good for socialising. If I wasn't at the game on a Friday night, I'd feel like I was missing something.

The game needs drastic changes across the board though, but it's not too late to recover the sport we love. Everyone knows where the problems are, yet the RFL seem content to pat themselves on the back at what a great job they're doing. Utterly clueless icon_rolleyes.gif

No, because I can't afford to basically. Due to the wonders of public transport, I effectively lose 2 days a week (for a friday game) when I could be working instead. Had one for the past 3 years commuting from Staffordshire, and just can't afford to not work this next year. I'll still go to as many games as I can, just not every week.

not had 1 for a few years because i miss a few so it makes it not worth it. we need to get back to intense games week in and week out. Felt too much like 27 pre season friendlies last year and although we came top of the tree it was the worst season for standard of rugby and enjoyment that ive had as a wigan fan.

I can't decide. Every season the prices are going up whilst the regular season is becoming more meaningless. Half of the time I can't be bothered going as I know most of the games are going to be boring or poor games. There's no incentive to do well. Add to the fact I have one of the most annoyong people sat behind me. I have had the same seats for 6 years or so, they've been there for two. My seats are brilliant but not worth putting up with these people for another year again. Might as well just save my money and just turn up for the games that matter ie. the playoffs and the cup matches, maybe one or two of the regular season games, Wire and Saints etc...

I will renew along with my two lads as we meet up socially with their St Judes team-mates and parents every home game.

We will be renewing as always but I can honeslty see why people dont. Obviously financially its hard times but I fully agree that at times the ST is under valued. Don't get me wrong the offers and the marketing the club does is fantastic to bring other speccies in but that mixed with sky schedule changes and maybe not being able to attend a few games with work commitments we probably do loose out.

I probably will for 2013. My financial circumstances are tight, but I've saved up during this last year to cover the probable expense for next year, and will continue to do so.

I pick and choose my away matches as I depend on public transport, so my easiest to get to are Salford, Hudds, Leeds, and, now, Saints.

However, the option is there to review this in the future.

voted no. First non renewal for 25 years.

They are for pre-season games in all honestly. I may go the odd game if im not doing anything else but 20 quid is steep for a friendly game.

Voted yes as I will be renewing.

The regular season does mean something. It may be the GF gives us the Champions but the team that finishes top of the league is the best in the league.
Leeds proved last year that being Champions means you are not necessarily the best team in the league. At that points they became two separate concepts.

Last season Wigan played some of the most breathtaking rugby I've seen in years if not decades. I do think Wane, Harris and Deacon are a good coaching team and will get the best out of the squad.

Not renewing honestly never crossed my mind!

If less people go then the RFL will have to look at the system as they cannot afford to lose peoples cash. If people continue to get season tickets, then they will change nothing.

In the end money governs all and if crowd increases continue, why would the RFL change the system?

In a way I know that when you finish top and don't win the competition it calls into question the system. However this only really hits one team. The other 13 like the top 8 as it gives them a chance and keeps up their fans interest during the year as they are still in with a shot no matter how slim. Those just outside can think well for a few games we could have made the top 8. Basically the playoffs keep up the hopes of everyone who can't be the best team in the league, and it depresses the winners of the league as there is more down side than up for finishing top.

I was thinking of posting a similar poll. But as I don't have a season ticket I can't renew it! I am considering purchasing one though. Is it worthwhile or not? Apart from maybe getting a couple of games for free (compared to paying on the gate at every game) is there any other benefits or am I better off attending most of the matches?

Three of us will be renewing. The 27 rounds may just be jockeying for position and less important trophy wise than the last few weeks in the playoffs but I still support the team and always will. Leeds have finished 5th and made two GFs due to learning to exploit the system. Had we bothered to turn up during the first 40 last week Leeds' approach would have failed and we would be going to OT. No doubt some people would have then been goading Leeds fans about the league table mattering after all.

It is annoying to finish top and miss out on the GF and I do agree that the playoff system needs to change to stop teams trying to finish 5th rather than 4th due to the current format. I also think that the league format should change so that every team doesn't play every other twice. With an unequal fixture list there is actually a need to have playoffs as league positions would be insufficent as a guage for ranking teams as who you played more often and who you avoided more often affected league position. That was why we had the old Championship playoffs for 70-odd years. If the fixture lists weren't even then the table toppers may have got there by playing 10th, 11th, 12th and 13th twice while the 5th placed team had played 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 6th twice. It is what the NRL does and nobody complains when a team is NRL champions from 5th. The only problem with a playoff being more important than the qualifying competition is that in SL's case the playoffs are not necessary as there is no disparity of toughness of fixture lists to redress.

Probably be a no for me. I picked and choose my games last year before I got a half season ticket. Wish I hadn't to be honest. I love this club but I have to admit sitting in a quiet empty DW stadium whilst playing the likes of Castleford and Wakefield..for what is effectively a meaningless game isn't that appealing to me anymore. I'll pick and choose my games and save cash for when we get to the important end of the season.

I'm becoming frustrated with the sport at the minute. From the RFL right through the referee's up to the clowns who we have to listen to on sky every weekend.
