Do you guys post on there?



Yesterday was absolutely disgraceful with some of the most disgusting personal comments I think I've seen in the main to other posters.

I know the thread that most of it was on seems to have been removed ???

No, I don't necessarily believe that good pre-season = good season. If you go on the Leeds forum they will have you believe that they would have won the treble again if their training pitch hadn't been flooded.



If you want an idea why we were so poor for most of the season in attack then listen to Waney's post match comments. He doesn't go into great detail but it seems there's a lot more to it than we realise.

What's the other forum people are referring to? WWfans?

Presumably. I do read it and post from time to time, but the tedious personal spats between posters (and between posters and mods) have made it a bit of a trial lately.

I do now very rarely. It's closing down soon isn't it? I think the way it is at the moment makes that not a bad option which is a real shame to say.



There seems to be some real issues amougst people on there that I can only presume stem from things that have happened away from the boards. I can count on one hand the amount of crossed words I've had with people on here in over a decade but I never take anything personal.





It is the fans site by the way purple.

Gave up on it several years ago, to be honest.



It's basically an ego show rather than a proper forum, with a small group of individuals simply unable to tolerate any views different to their own and constantly feigning inside info about the workings of the club. I suspect that it's also an ego thing with those who have big issues with IL and SW (they've demanded both be removed many times in recent years - how do you remove the club's owner, just out of interest?), as they didn't like them orginally and now just can't bear to admit that both men have done a great deal for Wigan RL.



A horrible place, to be honest, which will soon be history ... which might just mean, unfortunately, that some of its gobbier members then try to migrate over here.

Well as you know I post on both and a major difference between the two boards is the moderation is (deliberately) virtually non-existent over there and as a result things can get rather heated. They usually calm down in the end without people being banned.



Earlier in the year this place was like a morgue in comparison and several posters from here started cropping up on there and I don't think that was a coincidence.



As to it going away, that may not now be the case so you may be spared any invasion.

'Heated' being a euphemism for venomous, petty, pompous, narcissistic ... etc.



I don't include you in that, by the way. But there's a certain member over there who I'm starting to suspect is no real friend to Wigan RL, at least you don't get that he is from his online persona. He's tried to become a member of this site several times under different identities, almost always causing immediate acrimony and very quickly getting sussed and banned.



So if what you say is true, and all the cuckoos are staying that particular nest, then I'm more than happy.

Yeah, I used to be a mod on there, as you may remember, but I gave up on it several years ago.

Me three, good while ago now. I can't remember the last time I even logged on there.

Had a browse on it a couple of weeks ago for the first time in a few years.



Clicked out of it five minutes later. I might try it again in 2019

Not sure I understand why anyone connected with Wigan would be upset at the criticism for the dire performances and boring rugby earlier in the season (as long as it wasn't personally abusive). We are Wigan and we shouldn't settle for second best, let alone third rate performances. I'm old enough to remember the great Wigan sides being booed at CP by angry Wigan fans. Some of what we have seen this season has simply been unacceptable from a Wigan team. On the other hand the finish to this season has been up there with the Mission Impossible run of games, it was Wigan at its finest. You have to hand it to SW and the players, what a superb end to an otherwise forgettable season. Well done lads!
