Re: Bilko.
Im not easily satisfied Josie, but i would never turn my back on rugby no matter what the powers that be do, IMO it is completely and utterly wrong how its being run, ive been watching for 30 years and its a disgrace the game of rugby to the extent its become farcical , but will that stop me paying 400 quid for two season tickets nezt season??
I think you know my answer

Re: Bilko.
Its what many of us have been saying for some time now, the 27 rounds have become little more than a trailer for the main event. If a team of Leeds stature is happy to aim for a top 5 spot whilst keeping their powder dry for 2 knockout trophies, the league will become meaningless.
And when stalwarts like Bilko and Josie feel the same way, it tells me the game in its current format is in big trouble!

I have missed 5 games in the last 10 years and have been going for 30 years and like i have already stated no matter what happens within the game it is no excuse to turn your back on your club

If you are not happy with anything in life then why on earth continue supporting it out of blind loyalty. If people fall out of love with RL then so be it.

Would you blindly go to the same supermarket week in week out if you were unhappy with what they offered? The same pub week in week out? same restaurant week after week? etc etc

Re: Bilko.
All i am stating is that i will always be a supporter of Wigan Rugby and will keep going to all the games if i agree with the way its being run or not. I just think its a disgrace that people do the opposite but thats just my opinion and im not having a go at people for doing it
And as for the supermarket analogy?? I dont understand? I dont support Sainsburys or Tesco

Re: Bilko.
Cherry, that's the way a lot of people feel right now. In fact, its the way I felt in the early 90s.
When I first started watching Wigan, the weekend revolved around Sunday. Couple of pints before the game to discuss “Can we win today?” Then a couple more after the game for the celebration or inquest, depending on the result.
Then when ML got into his stride, it became “How many will we beat these men by, 30, 40, 50?”. I decided back then I wasn't paying to watch that and I certainly wasn't driving to the likes of Hull to watch it!
Hell, I even got bored with the annual Wembley win after number 6!
