if the performances continue and the crowds keep staying away then it will cost IL alot more over the year than it will to pay noble off!!

IL is a concerned man!!


Or someone who isn't prepared to invest in the short term,

Mick Hogan is doing an outstading job in terms of attracting sponsors, Subway, Rock FM, UCLAN, Kooga, Mecca, but one has to wonder how long he will tolerate operating on a shoestring.

"Shoestring" sounds harsh on IL; no-one knows the budget but IL's been on record saying he wants it run properly; if that means cost-cutting then good, profits made can get re-invested in the club,

That aside, credit to Mick Hogan for the work he's done so far.






Conroy - Being a Latics fan i'm already immune to watching sh*te.

Sally Cinnamon - Treat the Saints forum as you would if you met a girl from St Helens. Best policy would be to avoid altogether but if you absolutely can't resist temptation then take every possible precaution.

That is true, but shoestring can also cause far more profits than profit will solve.

Read John Monies book (re showers) for details.

That's requires balance and good management; hopefully something we now have.

trust me it is a shoe-string!! IL wont pay to have the washing machines connected up at orrell.. instead they have to take the kits to a dry cleaners to have them washed! thats how bad things are!

Adrian Lam would be my choice of replacing Noble if it ever comes down to that.

Lam knows the club and more importantly the quality of our youth. He'd give them a chance to shine.

It would be a Mike Gregory type of appointment.

Adrian Lam and Shaun Wane together would be fantastic.

Both are hugely respected through out the club.

I think that would be good, it would be a risk but I think it would pay off.

We have had the 2 best coaches in super league history and they have not done it, maybe a top class, big money coach is not the answer.






Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know
-
FIOS
