Re: YOU WANT CHANGE? FOLLOW THIS AND IT WILL HAPPEN!

<t>It may require drastic action, and no doubt a boycott would have some effect, but not necessarily the one you want.<br/> The risk with this approach is that it is anger fuelled, and essentially negative. It says "Get rid of 'X' and your troubles are over". But that's not the whole story. If you d...

Re: Our Current predicament!!

<t>The above comments just about tell it how it is. The Aussie imports were largely anonymous last night, and against Wakefield. The local boys held their hands up, and there were, yes there really were, some moments of good rugby.<br/> <br/> We lost against Cas in the first half by a combination of...

Re: Serious question

<t>"If you can meet with triumph and disaster, and treat those two imposters both the same". Rudyard Kipling "If"<br/> Success is a very difficult concept, but in the 80s and 90s we had it to our fill. If we are honest we had more than our share and we were the luckiest supporters in the world, but ...

Re: It's Official

Well, if you follow up a review of Mr Cullen's credentials by having a pop at the current coach, who do you want instead?

Re: If we dont beat castleford....

<t>"If we don't beat Castleford" is a presumption of failure. It's no use blaming everyone in the club. Morale is low, it's the 18th man's job to build it, not to knock it.<br/> Optimists and Pessimists look at the same situation and see the outcome differently.<br/> Some optimism wouldn't go amiss....

Re: Martin Offiahs Point on B'a'A

<t>Two Eyed Warrior may have a legitimate point, but whether you like Brian Noble or not, he is the coach we have, and is not the source of all evil.<br/> Contractual obligations mean it's better to get on with what we have than to simply say "X" is the problem and must go. In management speak "brin...

Re: Disallusioned

<t>One hesitates to take on a grammar lesson on this blog, but what is the illusion that you are alluding to?<br/> We'll allow you to be disIllusioned, but it's a pity. Rugby League is still a great game. Even if Wigan aren't the very best at the moment it's still wonderful to be at a game. we have ...

Re: Martin Offiahs Point on B'a'A

<t>"They" (whoever they may be) say that comparisons are odious, and you should never go back. The example of Mr Lindsay is a good example, but sadly we all remember the great teams of not so long ago. They were truly great, but like life they only could ever last so long.<br/> It was inevitable tha...

Re: Richard Mather Out!

<t>The problem with this thread is that it singles out a single player when it was a team failure, and it starts with a single negative assumption that "X" must go. <br/> It's much harder to come up with answers to problems than just to dish out blame. Let's try to keep this thread and forum above t...

Re: Wigan vs Wakey Reactions

<t>It's very sad that after one game there is so much frustration and anger on this website. All of it sadly justified by an inept and unprofessional performance. However, don't take anything away from Wakefield who played well, with clear purpose and plan, and nullified anything Wigan threw at them...
