So good Saints new coach has dropped him. I do not understand the attachment to Smith. He was just symptomatic of the problems mounting at Wigan. He was just average in most games he played for us and for quite some time now we have signed plenty of average players.fozzieskem wrote:Wigan had everyone’s favourite whipping boy Marty Smith leading them round the park and winning many a close game,but he’s crap,useless etc just added that to save everyone timejasonnlouise wrote:Was it early last season or the season before OLoughlin was out for a while and we started to cope and play well without him,but as soon as he was anywhere near fit Wane put him back in at the time it seemed to knock the team back, I agree we do play better now with him but for me if he hadn't been unnecessarily rushed back the team now would be better equipped to manage without him ,how long has he got left 1 season maybe 2 at a push we need to start grooming somebody now to take over before its too late
Why is this still going on?

Better question when did we last sign a good player not counting the ones who returned. Can not think if anyone after Bateman though young was still quality for his age.DaveO wrote:So good Saints new coach has dropped him. I do not understand the attachment to Smith.

Got plenty of project players that improve but when did we get a class player after Bateman.

Frankly I wouldn’t count the returnees either they all have been shadows of their former selves
Re: Why is this still going on?
Last good buy apart from Bateman?
Blake Green?
Blake Green?

Meh, it's the only reason I get Sky Sports. And I'll guarantee, now it's season over, that we'll get the same drivel next year. People need to voice their opinions to the club and leave the season tickets by the drove. Also don't bother going to the game tomorrow.Wandering Warrior wrote:Now that's what I call protesting!Dave-C wrote:Sack Wane or I'm cancelling the Sky Sports subscription for next year.

The Club will lose big money from that?!![]()
Perhaps not bothering wih Wigan TV would be more effective?![]()
Make a point to the club that you won't be made a mug of. We all know change is needed and no one is listening!

The ones that make the most noise on here appear not to go through the turnstiles?

Nah, probably the ones most likely to be mugs keep going through the turnstiles regardless of how they get treated by the club.Wandering Warrior wrote:The ones that make the most noise on here appear not to go through the turnstiles?

Well I’m one of the mugs!! Ancient’n’Loyal?? Some of you seem to forget that.
I support my club win or lose. Always have done always will as long as I am fit & able!
We can’t win everything every year which is what the majority on here think it’s our divine right to do so!

Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan
