Get Behind Them

So, we've lost two points and been fined. We are still above Wakefield on points difference, and we can still stay in the Super League for next year without a doubt.

Don't loose your support for the team you love & don't boy-cot matches. Don't loose interest and don't turn your backs.

Show your support for the team you love, go to every match. Chant louder and longer than you have ever chanted before, bang the drums louder and longer than ever before, out chant oposition fans twice as loud as we've ever done before and stay firm beleivers in Wigan. Support the players in what they do best. It is not the players fault we were over the cap, so in no way take it out on them. They are our players - and they are who are going to keep us in the best sporting league in the world. Chant them on, and they will pull through for us. We have tackled our way back up in the past years, and we have done it this season only to be kicked back again but we can and we WILL fight back again.

Out chant the Leeds, Huddersfield, Bradford, Harlequins and Hull fans and show them who we are - we're Wigan and we're Wigan 'till we die.

We will fight back - we're Warriors after all, arn't we? We are Wigan fans, and we're Ancient & Loyal.

:eusa2: I agree with everything you have said. We can still stay up. The team still need our support. On friday night lets cheer and chant louder than we ever have done to show the lads that we are still supporting them even after everything that has happened. As you have said its not their fault that we have been deducted 2 points. They can still keep us in superleague next year.

WE ARE STAYING UP WE ARE STAYING UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not gonna boycott matches or anything OTT like that.

But I am angry at the club's financial mismanagement. Someone needs their rear kicking.

Well said mate

Wigan Till I Die ( and beyond)

Get behind the boys and we will still be ok

Not too long ago i thought we were doomed, i now have nothing but pride for the team. They deserve to stay up now after the last 6 weeks efforts, long may it continue

I am 150% behind the boys and will be screaming and shouting until the end.

I just cannot believe the stupidity of maurice to allow this to happen, maybe last season they never imagined that a 2 point deduction would effect anything.

I hope Brian Noble makes his thoughts to the board perfectly clear, what a waste of a match like friday.

Regardless we are still staying up but maurice should go.

Well, we still have our destiny in our own hands, despite this.
In order of winnability, we have
Huddersfield (likely)
Quins (probable having beaten them when we weren't playing as well as we are now)
Bulls (possible - at home, they may have nothing to play for, and they aren't that strong)
FC (unlikely, given how good they are, but we may have to win to survive, which should lift us and they may be secure in 2nd by then)
Leeds (very unlikely, on past form)

Assuming we can win 1 of the 3 games where we are second favourites, that leaves us on 20 points.

We need to make sure our points difference is better than Trinity's, so even if we lose, we must get close. They should beat Cas and les Cats, which would mean that we need 2 of Bradford, Leeds and Saints to beat them. On that basis, we should stay up on points difference...

Of course we will continue to get behind them, and the players and Noble deserve our support.

As for Maurice and co, still no word on the web site - they have to go. Ultimately their mismanagement may get us relegated.

Well said mate
Thank you.

Plus, if you need some inspiration to get you going just listen to the copy of "Gladiator - Now We Are Free" you've got*. It will surely make your hairs stand on end and make you want to stand up and chant "Bring On The Warriors"

*(You know you've all got a copy somewhere :))

I feel dispondent at the minute at Maurice Lyndsay and our creditor who ever it is. Wigan have always been a club who have played by the rules and now we are found guilty of cheating. I am going to take a WNAC standing here and say MO out!
But...nevertheless I am still going to support the boys 110% every week. We are staying up. Our run in is alot easier than Wakeys. Im not to confident for the leeds game but after that I cant see us losing! COME ON WIGAN SHOW US THAT WE ARE STAYING UP!

I feel angry and more determined than ever that we need to stand up and be counted and not get relegated. Let's turn it into Wigan v the rest of RL.
