Yep i am, I used to go to every single match home and away and look forward to it from the beginning of the week no matter if we were playing PNG or St Helens, this year i've been to all home matches, a few away and cant say i have enjoyed any of them TBH.

Used to be amazing watching the likes of Farrell, Rads, Connolly, Dallas, Lam O'Connor, Smith, Cowie, Cassidy, Betts, Paul, Carney, Renouf, week in week out, every player from 1-17 had so much passion and cared so much about winning...these days it just seems to be Hock Lockers and Sam and Ainscough when they get a game.

It used to be devestating losing to teams like Salford or Wakefield every now and then but you just knew the week after the team who we played were in for a beating but now its more like..can we scrape a win against Harlequins at home in a month for the next win :oops:

Wigan RL has lost its 'erection' so to say. For me a team is built on passionate players who want to play for the club and no what it means, with a few class internationals thrown in the mix to spice it up... we have some of the passionate players in Lockers, Hock, Tomkins, Ainscough who reflect what Farrell, Rads, Newton, Betts etc brought to the team but can we compare Riddell, Roberts, Phelps, Smith, Bailey to Lam, Renouf, Dallas, Paul, Smith etc? Or Coley and Fielden to O'Connor and Cowie?

Absolutely he needs to act now.


He also seriously needs to watch his pricing for next season, another rise given the tripe he has made us watch, due in part to his poor recruitment will see season ticket renewals drop right off imo.

But i wasnt, i simply wasnt bothered that we had lost to the worst team to grace Superleague since Leigh the other year.

Maybe its the way the players just dont looked bothered either, maybe its starting to rub off on the fans who pay there hard earned each week and turn up with the hope that they may turn it around.

But im typing this post now, and i seriously would not be overally concerned if i didnt get to watch Wigan again this season. Simply bored of watching them with the lack lustre attitude.

Is anyone else feeling this way....?

I get the impression Noble will be in charge till the end of the season. Otherwise IL will have to pay up his contract and pay for the new coaches wages.

But to be honest it'll be worth it. The fans are the most important aspect of any team, and they are now beginning to really suffer. Watching a lack luster Wigan side lose to Celtic without any repercussion is disheartening for any Wigan fan.

IL needs to step up and make the hardest decision so far in his time at Wigan, sack Nobby, put Shaun Wane in charge till the end of the season.

Look for new head or give Wane the job if the shoe fits.

I personally want Noble to go now, he has done a heck of alot for the club, not least save us from relegation and improve so many areas of the club, I would hate this to be dragged out and end in a poor way.

Thanks for everything Brian but its time to move on.

Hull or Catalan might well be available soon.

Would Wane do the job on a part time basis? Would we be better off with a part time Wane or a full time Nob?

Would Wigan be willing to accept a part time Wane with a full time assistant.

Could the job be done with Vievers/Pendlebury etc taking most training sessions with Wane getting there when he can and being there on match days?

I don't know if it would work.

Got to say this is a top signing

No, if Noble goes, Forshaw & Vievers need to go as well. Pendlebury can then be left to his other job at the club.

Neither do I, but I'd feel better that something was at least being tried. Unfortunately IMO IL doesn't have what it takes to rock the (sinking?) boat before the semi.
