How many of the 3 non televised Wigan games have you been to this season?

As you said, p*ss poor performances warrant sacking.

2 home games 2 shockers.

1 against an 'Outside Top Six' team with 8 regulars missing.
1 against last seasons wooden spoonists.

All I am saying is give Noble time! I know its a different sport but say Man Utd sacked Alex Ferguson when the fans where calling for his head in 1990??? Im 99% sure United wouldnt have won 10 titles and 2 European Cups not to mention the rest.

Think Cas missed a good three/four tonight lets not forget.

Thats true. But no 1 kicker v back up kickers. Thats the point I'm trying to make. Pat out there we win tonight - i'm convinced.

agree. Had we had a game plan different from the last 3 years and scored moresecond half tries we'd have been leading in the final 10 mins and should have been out of sight not needing a late clinching try ourselves. Not having a go at the kickers - they were tough kicks but shows how much Pat was missed. 28 points is not good either but I don't mind conceding 28 points if we score 29!

We may have won had Pat played, which fine, would have been a win, but wouldnt have masked what was a terrible performace.

These things happen in sport mate! I am not having a go at all but all teams go though a spell like it! Saints lost 5 out of there first 10 games last season and still had a good season. Sacking the coach isnt allways the answer.

i could say that all week if it was another team in this situation

If we can't beat the wakies and castlefords at home, then we are in big trouble when we play Leeds and Saints.

These should have been points in the bag.

Noble is now talking about "trophies being won in October, not February".

What sort of nonsense is that ?

I think Nobles position may have become untenable, but I also am not sure that Mr.Lenegan is right for this job either.

Grim days ahead it seems and another trophyless season.
