Option 2, but add to that back the coach with support & cash for improvements (either players or more staff), stop trying to be everyone's friend (i.e.Mike Ashley), and be the Chairman. Don't want to see him or hear him just know that he is signing the cheque and doing the background work & that goes for Hogan too.

How about if IL demands 6 wins from the next 8 games or Noble goes. I think it's fair to expect a Wigan team to win 6 of their opening 10 games, don't you? 5 from 10 just isn't good enough. That would give us until Easter Monday, Catalans away.

A fair and balanced view and possible scenario.

If I was Chairman, that's what I'd do
At least then, we could answer a few questions...
- If they make the target, the players are obviously happy to play under Noble - no revolt.
- If they don't make the target, we can get rid and make a fresh start before the season is a total write-off.
I think we should wait and see what Friday brings first, that will be the true acid test IMO.

IL wouldn't admit it in public, that would create a media/fan circus.

With the current circus in full flow i doubt we could suffer further bad press beyond the current anti-media we are currently recieving..

I cant see a situation worse than the current one, the team is going downhill, as is the club.

Yes, finishing third two years running with an average squad is seriously underachieving isn't it.
If the chairmen jumped on this band wagon approach we'd end up with a new coach every year a la the soccer premiership clubs, there'd be no stability...it's not long since stability was the buzz word for what everyone thought the club needed, how things change after a few losses.

| 6. Put it down to a bad start and work to achieve better. Strangely enough these do happen even for the best teams in world sports. (hmm United rings a bell)
7. Ignore the fickle fans asking for every man and his dogs head.

| The Chairman should be worried that he could well have the head coach knocking on his door and telling him we are where we are as he hasn't signed the quality front rowers that the coach identified and wanted.
Last night we ended the game with 11 fit men (Noble). That is due to Hull having a big front row with bulk in the 2nd row (Manu).
We don't need any back rowers but we need props.
Last night Feka was the best prop on the field. One big guy with bulk who did 54 mins btw. Fielden was good too and Eamon puched above his weight all game. We were still out muscled and ended with 6 injured players as their big men slammed into our small guys.
O'Carroll & McIlorum had the big men running into them all the time they were out there.
Ian Lenagan has to bring at least one if not two props into the squad. Also this excuse that they aren't around and those that are too expensive won't wash anymore.
If there's a shortage then the price goes up wether it's prop forwards or anything else.
These two defeats aren't Brian Noble's fault they are Ian Lenagan's. He should have brought props in and he hasn't. That's why why we've lost and ended up with so many injured players.
Noble has got the very best out of what he's got. It's just that what he's got isn't good enough!
Noble's awasome foursome of Vagana, McDermott, Fielden & Anderson were big aggressive and of course bloody awesome. Ian Lenagan should provide Noble with similar. Caisley could do and so can Lenagan. He just needs the will.

| The chairman should and ask himself why he had over 6 months to sign at least one prop and a quality stand off and came up with neither.
