How Polish is Harry S?
Perhaps he could be the club link with the Polish community, but perhaps he is just using his ancestry for his (and our) way of getting him on the field.

| And the coach for his poor team selection, poor tactics, poor use of subs and poor preparation. The coaching staff and players should wave there pay this month to help you and your board out. How many days off are the players going to be given before the Wigan game, they should be in every day doing 8 hours on how to catch a ball and learning the basic tactics of the game. Then they should all be made to clean the toilets

Wakey fan in overblown reaction to a poor performance shock!
Don't listen to this stuff MC - it calms down after a few days and the cautious optimism returns ahead of the next game.

| Bet Ryan Hall isn't getting too much stick for the high ball he never attemted to take to give a try away.
Far worse effort than ones Fox gets slated for.
Also top full backs made errors over the weekend far worse than any Mathers made on Thurs.

| My cheese and pickle sarnies worked a treat yesterday.
There are some people on here that Daddycool should definitely not consider inviting for afternoon tea.
However if I were to get an invite I would thank him for all the good work he and his team are doing under what I am sure are pretty challenging conditions. I would also make sure that I provided a large sponge cake and maybe some flapjack.

Matty Bowen being the most high-profile example; he's probably on 3 times Mather's salary and was playing in a game that was massive for Wigan and for the whole of SL - and he ambled around looking confused, overweight and distinctly disinterested.

| The attendances will improve when the team starts winning games. It's as simple as that.

It`s worth noting hes been `Overweight` for the past 10 years, Still hasn`t stopped him being one of the best fullbacks in the NRL.
He did have a shocker on Saturday though

| Can I just say I go to a ground because my team is playing there not because they have nice beer and pies and they are in plenty of supply. I go to watch Rugby not to get out of my tree on beer and bloated full of processed food, I couldn't give 2 hoots to what service I get or how comfy the seats are, wether its raining,cold if its got a roof, nice toilets, fast turnstiles etc,
Some of you were just born to moan and groan,
I just go to watch my team play Rugby League in an old fashioned stadium the old fashioned way and I like it that way

Same here.
No amount of venison pies or luxury double chocolate stout would increase the attendance. Neither would outdoor heaters and leather recliners in the East stand or quilted bog roll and hand lotion in the khazis.
Fans follow a winning team.

You might be on to something there!
As for the winning team - fans do indeed follow one, unless it's Huddersfield of course.

| The reduced gate capacity may be having a negative effect. Home games against Bradford commonly attract 7 or 8 thousand. If you were considering it, would you venture out on a wet Thursday night with what sounds like a fair chance of being turned away? With it being on telly, the answer becomes a little easier.
The main point about Thursday is that whatever was going on with the food or beer, it had no effect at all on the attendance, as you had to be in attendance to experience it. And it wouldn't put me off going to watch the rugby game in future. Might mean I skip a pie next time, but if anyone refuses to go to a game because there were no mushy peas left has a rather skewed view of their match day priorities.

Maybe that's how we deal with the 5333 limit. Fans are asked ''are you here for the rugby or the pies?''. If they answer rugby, they get in. If they answer pies, they get turned away after being comedy custard pied in the face.

| Not having adequate catering won't greatly affect the attendance in itself, but it will affect the revenue gained from those that are there. As MC has stated previously the less revenue the club generates will affect the quality of team we can put on the park in future. This means the likelihood is we win less games, which as we all know affects the attendance.....

| We got just over 4100 today but just thought is there an update on the ground repairs and it's capacity going back up to 10,000/12,000 with St. Helens coming on 23rd March? As they'll probably bring a couple of thousand fans with them which will be more money to WTW the more we can get in.
Last season attendance was 7985.
