Not very productive unfortunately. Conservative owner. Noble under no threat, all the coaching staff work incredibly hard, they just need more assistants to enable them to continue following the same philosophy.

Glad I had to work then.....If he is saying Noble is not under threat is IL the right man for the job, as a proper Wigan fan cannot and should not allow us to come to this and put up with it.

Did anyone really expect to be told anything different?
A public meeting is not going to be the place that problems are thrashed out is it.

The fans forum was announced some time ago. The preparation a couple of powerpoint slides. IL picked 10 questions from random people. The people were 5 males, 5 females all middle age. 10 people gave their comments, questions SLIDE - list of soundbite comments re last game. Usual no effort, not enthusiastic, do not look fit. The things anybody can see. Do they know why? NO

The coach is not under discussion, nor are any of the coaching staff. They just lack assistants. So more people being employed to pursue the same coaching philosophy will in a few years see progress. Lack of long term planning, constrained by the salary cap. They go for some players but get outbid easily. Some they do not go for.

They have decided to go for the youth route but it will take years. Alas they even know that a successful team with its culture brings youngsters through but ours will just struggle along. They know the team is boring but they would rather win boring than lose boring. They agree Stuart Fielden has never played as he did for Bradford but he played okay the last few games.

To be honest I am so pissed off, I will add more later.

Oh IL will not be inputting his own money. They even said sending young players to Aus was dependent upon internal funding. You will however see prices rise mark my words.

Assistants , seems to be the buzz word how about some quality number 1s

Yes and unfortunately it tends to be the middle age upwards fans who attend and would clap whatever was said and giggle in the right places.

No we have made progress and Brian is very good in the playoffs. The club was far worse before he came (although ask IL about anything else before his time and he says I cannot comment because I was not around, just when it suits lol)

Get this they never asked Feka to lose weight because of his court case and the stress he was under. However, they do now. He lost 10K leading up to the Hudds game. He is losing weight not gaining it.

N.B - Mike Forshaw or another coach attended the riversiders meeting earlier this season and gave the blarney Fekas weight was not an issue. Body genetics blah blah.

SO SOMEONE LIED!

Most of the questions were exactly the same, we do have some thick fans do Wigan.

Season ticket prices to go up...
more marketing but in 2009 we have missed the boat this year as we do not have a sponsor and now is the time to order/make/ supply merchandise for next year...

JJB IS GONE!!!! wahoo! several sponsors who aren't bothered about current Wigan form... apparently 'Wigan' as a history and stature of the game is what sponsors are thinking not current results.

Higham leaving for 'football' reasons - mixed reaction from the fans

Sam T is too young to be in the first team

Barrett's head isnt here, IL openly admitted that - quite obvious isnt it

we have no leaders anywhere apart from Carmont who along with other qualities was bought to boss the backs around

Phelps not a winger - favoured position is fullback then standoff... waiting to see the click between phelps/ lulu/ smith next season and go from there

Feka lost 10 kg, 10kg of losing to go...



Basically Wigan are 2 or 3 years behind St Helens and Leeds in terms of contracts, youth development, leadersip, merchandise etc etc etc...

Oh, and again, there is a horse, which we need to get on like Noble keeps saying.


what is this horse?

typical bull poo from the club

no forward planning


too mad at the moment to comment any further
