Wigan scored an average of only 12 points a game in the 1979-80 season, which led to their relegation but I have no record of the scores....

The BBC Sport match report says it was "the first time the Warriors .... had failed to register a single point in a home game in Super League history."

As for consecutive games without a try, no idea.

He's normally very reliable but it was 1974 according to his own site http://wigan.rlfans.com/news.php?readmore=3280 0-0 v Cas then 6-10 v Wire

If we manage three home games in a row without a try then it would be the first time since 1904 http://wigan.rlfans.com/news.php?readmore=3207 2-2 v Leeds, 6-0 v Leigh, 2-5 v Salford.
