Pretty much, yeah. Because for most of those years we were literally dire, nobody thought or expected that we’d be competing. But now, we’re meant to be. I’ve been watching wire since I was about 6, I’m 32 now and I’m frankly disillusioned and bored with all things wire and rl. I’m sick of mickey poor officiating, marketing, coverage and most of all being taken for a mug by a side, year on year, that can’t unlock an open door.
Pin this to the bloody dressing room if you like Pricey!

Apologies for not sharing your not-so-infectious optimism.
Back on topic Smithies and Partington are both junior grubs.

| The bottom line is...we had a weakened team out...beaten 3 tries to 1...whilst having 2 chalked off.
Had that been a Sunday game that we used to have...those would have counted....so I would say nothing between the teams and we played poor while Wigan supposedly played the best they've played this season.

Well they wouldn’t because the ref sent them up as no tries, stop defending an awful attacking team, which Blake and Daryl as exceptions we are. Buck stops with the coach.

Pollocks!.. why are you telling me what I can or can't do?...the ref would discus with his line judges. They'd be awarded all day long.

| Abysmal. I don't care how we performed in the second half because we shouldn't have been so downright lazy in the first. Insulting that was. At the minute Joe Philbin and Daryl Clark are the only ones earning their pay. Livett always looks dangerous too at least.
Good on Patton for scoring at least one legitimate try that was wiped off only because the one who didn't clearly see it made a guess. He did okay tonight but still not good enough, his brain doesnt work fast enough for that position.
Jason Clark is looking very lazy lately.

Haha.. You do realise we had 2 chalked off as well, don't you? And missing Flower, Bullock, O'Loughlin, Manfredi, Burgess, Davies etc. Or do only your absentees and chalked off tries count?

| There's been a problem for some time.
Even at the start of the season we didn't play that well in a number of games but managed to scrape wins - often down to individual efforts/brilliance from Austin, Clark or Ratch.
There were notable exceptions- such as Hull away.
And now teams have figured us out.
The team is better than what we saw tonight and Price is responsible as coach. Most of the players are or have been jnternationals. Hes got a full budget. There's little excuse.
But being totally out enthused in the 1st half was unacceptable.

You’re talking absolute tosh! Again you do realise the linesman was the one who clear as day saw Patton had dropped the ball on the first try and advised it be sent up as no try then the second Thaler made his own mind up that it was a double movement? You’re literally trying to pluck positives that a simply not true, as the Wigan fan has just pointed out they had a number of their players missing as well as us teams have figured us out and I think it’s alarmingly obvious. I hope I’m on here next Sunday apologising to you and bowing down to your superior knowledge of this team I really do RD.

| Last night was as expected. The problem has been brought on by our own failings over 10 weeks or so. We could have wrapped up second place weeks ago and then rested players.
We deserve everything we get

I'd have took that result all day had you have offered it without Austin and Ratchford.
The forwards got a run out. That's all we require before Wembley.

Rd we can't beat anybody if we can't score any points! Our attack had been garbage practically all season and its getting worse. We are going to get hammered next week at Wembley and they probably miss out on the playoffs. Price has to go, Now.

| Look it was nil nil then Goodwin cops one hell of an elbow cut...our error was keeping him on because Wigan just ran at him and score 2 in as many minutes.
Wire as much as we were poor were also more than a match in the pack, without revealing any expansive prowess....purpose or not fit for purpose...who knows? And that's the thing. You don't know.

You just say outlandish crap all the time. If we do win next week it won't be because you knew. It'll be because at some point you have to be right.

Well RD, either you genuinely have a sixth sense and an inate feel for results against form or you are a comedy genius. The kind of genius who haphazardly weaves through town centre shouting at pidgeons and clutching a bottle of drain cleaner.
I can think of a dozen reasons for pessimism and no reason at all for your shiny happy clappy alright on the night isms but I hope you are right. And if you are, you're wasted on here old chap.

I'd rather live through the highs & lows again of the last 10 yrs (with CC and GFs) than I would the uncertainty and dirge we put up with between 1999-2009.
