Sorry but does anyone on here actually believe someone on rlfans with 4 posts over ian lenegan

Maybe not but further to leaving the Fans Forum, I checked back on the official site and couldn't find an announcement.

More likely it's a case of Riggs Warrior getting it completely wrong. I've enquired since I saw the original post, and my contact at the club informs me that Ainscough is on a good deal at Wigan and quite happy to stay.

Interesting the way you phrase it, though. A fan asks IL a question at the forum, and because IL provides an answer that you don't want to hear, he's 'sneering'. Pathetic attitude, mate.

If IL cured aids and cancer, pulled on a shirt and won us the GF himself some people would still have something to complain about on here, he just cant do right!

What rankles with me is the way some people put a negative spin on everything.

I have an issue with the way IL is handling the Noble affair. I hear the arguments for him keeping it secret, and I can go along with it if it's something the new guy has requested. Though I'm worried that he won't pull a rabbit out of a hat, and will give the job to someone like Shaun Wane. As far as I can see, that's a legitimate concern. But these prats who never have a good word so say about the guy get on my nerves. IL's by far the most communicative chairman Wigan has ever had. He holds regular forums, he even posts on this message board - he seems to go out of his way to be an okay bloke. And yet we still get comments worthy of CP Wigan, or whatever he's calling himself these days - 'sneering'. Totally pathetic.

To be honest I didn't care for the way he responded to his question, which was a perfectly good one. I too (and many others were suprised of his answer) as nothing had been stated in the press / online.

Just cause he's our Chairman, and a local lad doesn't mean I have to be in absolute Awe of him. He's done some great things, some less so (in my opinion). Don't think that means I have a pathetic attitude surely.
If everyone had the same opinion as everyone else (including yours) then this would be one hell of a boring boring forum.



No answer to that one really..!

I'm sure everyone has reasons for why they pass insults. Some, like you, may even think they have good reasons.

But from what I can see, it was yet another throwaway offensive remark - based on zero evidence - of the sort that seems to pepper this forum.

It's quite telling that you immediately latched onto a comment made by a new poster who looks as though he knows very little, as if it's yet more proof that IL is crap.

And don't give me this rubbish about "I don't have to be in awe of him". No-one said you did, and arguing otherwise is trying to change the subject.

As I said. Pathetic.

On the other hand there are people he can't seem to do any wrong with however he goes abit his business.

In truth Ian Lenagan has done alot right for this club since he's took over but he's also got things wrong. Thats not me trying to linch him but just pointing out facts.

Marks out of 10 for his reign so far= 6.5........A decent start but room for improvment.

Hopefully we'll see that improvment.

I questioned the non announcement of Ainscough on here at the time after the forum that what IL stated was contrary to what most us believed (contract ending this season).
Why was the Ainscough announcement not made public if true? Very strange? Normally the Official site is spot on?
RE: IL as a whole over the last 18 months I'd say 90% golden, I have never been a IL hater, yes we all judge his decisions on here. Just like you will if SW is announced at Team Coach.

What I won't be on here is a 'happy clapper' / 'sheep', no-one should be but unfortunately we have a few at the club, neither will I be a non stop moaning man probably due to the fact we are going the right way in the long run. I look at each situation and state an opinion whether it be positive, negative or neutral.

Lastly, like I said earlier, I didn't care for his answer to the fan at the forum, which to me (and a few others around me) was seen as a bit of a 'sneer' in his answer. I know the lad was a bit loud and it could have got a little overheated but it was tit-for-tat both ways, very strange considering the lad was a valued paying customer.

There are ways of handling your 'fans' in public if you want them to literally 'shut up and sit down', I don't think that was the right one.

Depends in what shirt he did it in?
