I can't knock anybody that doesn't want to get an ST, if I stop I'll get out of the habit and I'm not ready for that yet.

Oh for the days of Jimmy Hornby, Ness Flowers, Jinkin Jimmy Fairhurst, Steve Brehney, Terry Hollingsworth, Billy Melling etc etc.
I wonder what this messageboard would have been like then.
Many on here wouldn't know a good team, or a bad one for that matter if they were stood alongside them.

Well that was a **** team!

. Dead right,what some people are short of is a couple of seasons in the Championship,or better still a good dose of the 1970s.

But we knew they were shite, the current lot are being paid top dollar and underperforming week in week out, probably not of their own volition.

That's real perspective, all those above posts. This place would be in meltdown if we could only return to those glory days

Actually Green Vigo kept the police in a job in Bolton regularly with some of his antics.

Comparing eras is impossible, yes there have been bad Wigan sides but that does not make this lot a good one.If you want to spend your money watching todays team fine, im sure Mr lenagan will be over the moon and he will rub his hands as you keep handing it over.Personally I have no intention of giving my money to him to allow him to continue with the poor rugby being served up.

Hooker
I'm just trying to take a bit of sting out of it.
The last couple of seasons the entertainment has been poor at best but the situation has been worse and that was my point. I'm not happy and I want to see the back of Wane, forget the attack coach, but as I said, I go because if I stop I'll get out of the habit.
I'll wait, like most have said, till the deadline.

Fair enough, but after ILs speech I just cant see many serious changes as I got the impression he is reasonably satisfied with what I consider mediocrity.
