I don't think so. Every time we lose we get this relegation talk. I am far from happy at last nights result and I still feel we threw the game away however I'm staying positive that Millward will at least bring in some new tactics and calm the players down a bit. We're far too panicky when we're losing.
...and far too crap when we're winning!

GeoffN posted: Hope not! We should have O'Loughlin and Hock back, plus the new signings...I think Millward is doing the right thing having a good look at all our players, before deciding where he thinks our priorities are. I just hope it's IM rather than ML making those decisions.
I can envisage all the Academy players getting a look in at some stage (maybe even Desi!).
At leat 7-8 will go and will be replaced. We already have 2 with Gualvo almost a certainty. Some bug names will go.

At leat a quarter of the squad will go if not more. The over reliance on youth has cost us. Ok we did over stretch on the Cap but wed have benn better getting rid of Faz 2-3 years ago when we gor rid of so many other than let him stay and go now.
We still need a full back, centre, half back and 2 props after signing Fletcher, Richards and Gulavao!!
Why do we need a full back.
Agree on the other positions. Its going to be a revolving door come September and its about bloody time.

I don't think that many will go next season. At least not 7-8 like some people are suggesting. That would not be financially viable nor, if we were going to replace a lot of the kids with players of a greater stature, would we be able to fit them in under the salary cap.
Some of the 'big' names like moran and orr need replacing though, that is for sure.
Furthermore, all the work that will have been done from now until the end of this season would be lost if we were to replace so many players.

And as for relegation, which we all seem to have forgotten is the topic here; that's not going to happen and we all know it (even that moronic warrington fan!)

Exactly, I'm chuffed we have Millward too and he really does need time. You can't turn a squad round in 11 days.. Also, people keep comparing this squad to 1997, I think people are forgetting that we actually finished 4th in 1997, so really we were in a better position then. Anyway, forget that, just give Millward a season and we'll see because he can deliver.
Wigan 'til I die.
