I really thought Lenagan would begin to make us a force again but we're going nowhere at all and both mature and young players are being wasted.

For the rest of this season, I'm going to do something I've never done before. I'll keep an eye on Wigan but go and watch some lesser teams, especially Barrow. They might be minnows but they're more motivated, better coached and, for a team with few fans and little cash, they're bloody marvellous. Maybe next year I'll watch St Pats! I'll start paying money to watch Wigan again when I have even the tiniest bit of belief that I am watching a team going somewhere.

it's getting very hard to get behind a team that has a coach that still belives he can win games by playing one man rugby down the middle,and has has failed to make this once great club great again,and the longer he stays the further he is draging us down.we need a new coach and a change in direction asap.i also had high hopes that lenagan would be a no nonsense chairman but am beginning to wonder if he has the balls for the job,if he has then he has to cut some dead wood adrift,the best signing he has made is mick hogan as chief exec.and last but not least it's getting hard to get behind players who seem only concerned with picking up there pay packets,and show a complete disregard for all the loyal supporters who spend there hard earned cash following the team we love,bring back the old payment method basic wage and a bonus if you win ,if you lose you get sod all that should sort out the pre-maddonas.

the fans are behind the team, win lose or draw, but there is only so much we can take , i like a hell of a lot more people have supported this team since i was a youngster and have done through the bad times, the glory days and back to the bad times, but this is the biggest shower of dung i have witnessed. in these times of low wages at work fifty to 80 quid a fortnight for us in whitehaven is a lot of hard earned cash to give a team who are getting paid for something they enjoy, but not delivering the goods. sorry mate this will not turn round while noble gets his way, and with some of his waste of space players still here
