You can be a true fan of the club and have given up on the coach and conditioning and medical staff.
I happen to think the team are lions lead by donkeys.
I'll be getting mine too but it's going to be a long, inactive winter I fear, to be followed by a long, boring summer if the donkeys are'nt changed.

Perhaps IL could provide a free scalpel with season tickets?

You'll be pleased to know next season I will not be holding myself out to be a Wigan fan/ follower/supporter
Being a couch potato I will support RL in general and follow which ever team plays the most entertaining rugby at any given time. I look forward to the GF. Luckily Wigan are not featured so will be spared any further embarrassment :lol: :cool:

YAWN!!

Still, with a devoted army of couch-based supporters, rugby league can look forward to a bright future in this country with confidence.

Yes.
I'm a couch potato when it comes to bastardised rugby or grid iron as it's known?

There is far far too much negativity on this site. Too much complaining, too little effort to praise, what remains, the greatest game.

Support it. Build it up. Praise it for what it is.

Constant whinging becomes a habit, and brings no credit to either Wigan or Rugby League in general. What do those who do so much complaining expect others in football or union to make of our opinion of our own game? Hardly likely to win them over.

So, please, don't just complain. Be constructive and positive.

And above all, BE THERE next season.
What a load of sanctimonious twaddle. Praise for what it is? What is there to praise in Wigan getting beaten 32-0 by a bunch of journeymen, letting Cas walk all over you at home and Wane being totally out coached for the last 7 months? The constant whinging you complain about is a constant for one reason only. The constant failing of team and coach and the constant excuses from Wane. You think if we were playing the kind of RL we have seen in the two semi-finals people would be complaining?

If you don't believe me go and dig back into the site for comments in 2010 and 11 after Madge took over.

Call a spade a spade. If you sit there and lap it up nothing will change.

Be constructive and positive? Well here you go, change the coach and we will be a better side. I think that is constructive and will be a positive step. Is anyone listening? No so telling people to be constructive is pointless. It's a bit the idiots who say get on with Brexit. There is nothing to get on with.

I don't know where you live but as a travelling fan I will not be renewing my season ticket unless Wane is sacked. If I was living in Wigan I might, out of habit. A stroll down to the ground would be no great hardship even if I was bored to tears for 80 minutes in the hope things may change. As it is I am not putting up with the M56/M6 unless I see some major acknowledgment from the club things need to change and not yet another signing of a project player. Cost is not the issue, watching RL is one of the cheapest pro sports you can follow but I go to be entertained not out of some masochistic loyalty. I guess I have frown out of that.

from since Wane took over its been negative. first despite the amount of players that left with Maguire it wasnt wane it was Maguires legacy then it was apparently just lucky then its just because everyone else is poor to finally (and on he last point probably correct) wane has been sussed.

although in your case of a 80 minutes trip is a bit nore understandable the amount of people saying this on the net makes a mockery of Ancient and Loyal.

start petitions/write to the club/raise it at fans forums. but stop supporting the club by stop buying tickets.... bit short sighted in my opinion as it could damage the club long term finacially
These are two reasons not to trust people.
1. We don't know them.
2. We do know them.
