Quote ="jonh"It is difficult to assess or set targets ie we must be in 2 semi's etc, the thing i feel is to judge on the performances throughout the year. If we can perform to the levels I think the squad is capable of more consistently then we should see a semi appearance at the very least, i would hope for at least 1 semi appearance by the way.
I think next year will hopefully show the marked improvement over what was in my opinion clearly an ill prepared and at times coached team, it has to be about performance though over results.
I look forward to seeing the effect he has on the team and certain players in it.
Not necessarily aiming this comment at you but it does seem some posters are carrying there pro Noble argument and holding it against the new bloke who has yet to set a foot in Wigan.'"
Very good post Jonh.
Although i dont think anybody has anything against MM and Wane. I certainly dont and hope that they get us to the GF next year!
My axe is to grind with IL. I think he treated Noble harshly and stopped him short of something good in the near future. Maybe im right,maybe im wrong we will see.
As i say,if we dont at least make both semis then ill be disappointed as weve been in them consistantly for the last 3 years. What does excite me is seeing if there is indeed any change in the way we play under MM. I know you have been very critical of Noble over the years so will be interesting to see if your right. Personally i dont see it unless theres at least 2 very good players added to the exsisting team but we will see.
