Wigan fan in peace.
First of all thanks to the HKR speccies we met in Soccer Sensations, genuine fans and good to have a chat.

What happened to "pride in your shirt"? Yes Wigan played some really fast open attacking rugby, and their speed and accuracy of passing was great to watch, but some of the Rovers defending, particularly for the Hughes, Green and Smith tries I wouldn't expect if we turned out our U16 side.
It was embarrassing, even for us genuine Wigan fans who like to see a proper match.

Anyway good luck on Sunday and do the right thing and stuff our enemies (Saints)

Like I posted earlier mate, no effort. Wigan were ruthless thanks to our lack of attitude

Completely agree. I had to laugh at Paea being spelled after having 20 mins on the pitch during which he had 3 drives and took part in no more than a handful of tackles!! I did more work drinking a cup of tea. Our forwards need to have a long hard look at themselves. We had set after set trying to get out of our 20 with the likes of Latus and Salter doing all the work, surely the props need to step in and man up, no wonder the edge defence is poor as they’re doing the hard graft.

Total embarrassment and completely unacceptable performance, Wigan weren’t even that good, they never had to be. I said at half time that Wane would have given his lads a roasting for not playing with tempo, looks like he did and Wigan in 2nd gear tore us a new one. I knew we’d get beat, never had any illusions otherwise but never expected this manner of capitulation, what was it 30 points in 12 minutes at the end, the team and coaching staff need to take a long look at themselves and sort that out, there are no excuses.

Easter, all teams play twice. Injuries, so what who hasn’t, doesn’t mean you give up. Starting to think they thought they’d appeased the fans by beating the worst FC team (on Fridays performance) I’ve seen in a long while, well sorry Craig it’s not good enough. Can’t see a win in April and think that might be it.

We were in the away end, the worst place ever to watch a game from. There was a freezing gale blowing down the pitch towards us, yet Rovers never used it in the first half. Surely the tactic should have been, especially early on, kick deep and try to force the error.

Tactics??? What are they?

Even as the game was getting away from us we never changed our one man rugby, no offloads, no off the cuff risks, nothing changed at all.

We took loads of risks in defence, they all came off and Wigan scored fifteen trys.

Yet we had more offloads than Wigan bizarre ain't it I think the players were just tired

strange easter for both sets of supporters,you stuffed us fri,then got hammered,we had a good win at wakey,i am seeing some of my dobbin pals tomorrow and will be interesting who is the happier, me i think but not by a lot

I bet if they had a fan poll to keep sanders or not I bet I know which way it would go and I bet it would not be to keep him he might be a nice guy but he can not motivate a team and not this team

So we're now the club to have most recently broken our worst result record. But until yesterday ours seems to have been one of the more venerable ones, shared between 1956 and 1991, both at Halifax, coincidentally. Most clubs are too sensible to list theirs, but those SL clubs for which I could find one:
Cas 2006, Hull 2005, Salford 2000, Saints 1909, Warrington 1996, Widnes 2012.
Wigan's seems to have been their 75-0 reverse at saints in 2005 and Hudds can't have had too many worse than the 86-6 Leeds did them by in 1999.
So while there is no getting away from what it is, most clubs have had their worst day in fairly modern times.

Edit, most conceded for Bradford is 1931, but the margin was greater against Hull last year. Hudds lost by 82 in '88. London 6-82 in 2011. Wakefield in 1995, against Cas just for added salt in the wound.

My point, such as it is, is that talking about it in the context of our entire history is to be expected but summer rugby and 4 point tries makes comparison difficult. And I'm trying to rationalise away the plopness of it all, and you're not helping!

Whatever it is in relative terms, and despite some mitigating factors, it is a thoroughly embarrassing scoreline on its own terms, I acknowledge.
