Sorry Frag, the only way I can win you money is via the bookies, but I doubt the odds are worth the petrol money.

Brian Noble's men are now 5-2 to finish bottom, with Castleford at 4-1, Wakefield 13-2, Harlequins 10-1 and Huddersfield a 33-1 shot following their brilliant win over St Helens."

Or, as Phil Clarke says here:

"
The only hope that I can give you is to say that I can't see Wigan being relegated. What's the chance that the champions from the N.L.1 deciding to accept the £100,000 cash incentive from the RFL if they chose to remain there? Could Wigan supplement this with some more money? Would that be a sensible and clever decision knowing that in about 12 months time all clubs can submit a franchise application to be in the top division? (It might be wishful thinking, but you sounded like you needed cheering up.)"

So will I, but I'd much rather support them in SL!
I suffered enough through the seventies, when we won nothing, and also last time we were relegated - it's much more fun when we're off to Wembley every year!

I have brought it up again. Now are we going to believe we are going down?
That performance, no words to describe it!
Noble is doing and saying the correct things stating we are getting better, please believe me we are not. That performance was up there with the worst this season. Moran is playing of cuff with no direction what so ever. O'Loughlin is not a captain and at best is a good average player. He has been put up there with the best and he is not. He would struggle to hold down a position in the St Helens team and would possible be a interchange player.
The over seas players are below average and not worth their places, I could go on and on.
We need to restructure the team and 100% do not stick with the team that has lost against bad teams. Moran should go to looseforward and we will see how we go from their. This is the main area of concern.

With 14 games to go? I certainly hope not! Mind you if the team and coaching staff show as little backbone as you with half the season remaining, then I'm getting ready for Batley now...
And if they carry on playing as blind as you then we will soon be in div 2.
Remember anyone can insult anyone, but for what purpose, I would suggest you think before writing
