If you currently look at the club website or Twitter feed, last night didn't happen.

Not sure I follow the whole KR and IL bashing here.
Haven't they delivered the most successful decade we've had pre COVID since the early 90s? Completed turned the fortunes of the club around from where we were 2005/2006. They've earned our trust & respect.

Not interested in George Burgess or Shaun Edwards. Old news.
Disappointing to hear Hardaker is likely leaving. We need all the top class players we can get and he definitely is one.
The coach and backroom recruits will be an important one.
Clearly the George Williams rumours were true at the time RE contract offer. Nothing we can do about a player not wanting to re-join (wonder why?). It feels like we are scraping about for a new halfback now.
Promoting youth definitely the right approach but we must not overly rely on youth like we are doing. You need that class and quality/experience to compliment - especially in the forwards.
Clearly the 25% stakeholder is looking at the next stage of the club after IL is (to be blu t) no longer here. Sensible and to be expected. The lack of PR over it could be for a host of reasons.

Huge year for recruitment for us. A new coach + halfback. Not easy to recruit. Very limited market too.

The supposed chat with the WEP, which was supposed to happen today, also didn't go ahead.

To be honest i started writing this reply 2rs ago, had a phone call from a mate and went through an hour and half with him about last night
I know you want to be outraged
But just to pre warn you, even though some people have said that it was recorded and will be show on Wigan TV, I haven't seen that anywhere and didn't hear anyone say that on the night.

Now the reason I say this is if your going to post every 24hrs saying still nothing, then don't be surprised if your still saying it in months and months time.

I mentioned earlier that people were complaing about there being no twitter feed, to be honest, and I dont do twitter etc, I've asked other people and they say they haven't seen anywhere were the club didnsay they would tweet it out, if they did, they did. But I certainly didn't see it.

I can see other peoples replies, to be honest I'm not doing individual replies but!

Are you guys sure that wigan did day theybwould tweet? That they did say they would edit and out on Wigan TV?
Or could it be that someone on here or twitter said it and everyone now believes rather wigan said they would????

Like I say if it was officially said I apologise

Before I whinge I want to say that what IL has done for this club is fantastic and as a fan of the club I am very grateful.

I find this forum immensely frustrating. I cannot understand why the club have not released a transcript or put this forum on Wigan TV for the rest of us.

I’ve no problem with them not streaming it live, it wouldn’t take long to edit out (if there was any) bad language or behaviour that is inappropriate and upload it to Wigan TV, or at the very least state their intention to do so. It kind of feels like they are saying if you couldn’t attend you’re not important to us.

I can only say it one more time
They gave a 2/3minute explanation as to why they didn't want to show it.
It made sense to me, and I can only say that I understand people being suspicious, but their explanation made sense.
Unfortunately I'm not going to explain it because that in itself would lead to more questions etc.

What I will say is that the closed nature of it imo allowed them to be more open about things.
A friend who went last night said that all the people saying it was whitewash etc would have got exactly that if it was streamed etc because by nature the answers given by the club would have to be sanitised etc and then everyone would have said it was a whitewash etc.

Now we're obviously going to go round in circles
And I'm not going to deny that those that weren't here will be happy with this (although I find cadoo and crunchers repkies amongst others encouraging) but i can say that in a very troubled period what I feel (and every person I've spoken to that was there said the same) was that it was a very very good meeting, lots of openness and lots of transparency and info.

The club did say on their twitter feed there would be regular updates on social media.
