I agree, but when I posted a thead on the VT everyone is disagreeing

That's because they are idiots.
Our 2012 side was playing nowhere near as well as the 2010 side and we only lost to the Whinos by a single point in the semi-final. The quality of SL has really dropped off in the last few years.

Things are rosy.

| Quote XBrettKennyX="XBrettKennyX"Whilst it clearly isn't "All" doom and gloom, apart from the general decline in the standard of RL in this country that is, my comments would be:
1. League leaders (2 out of last 3 years) Irrelevant
2. Semi-final CC (Winners 2011) This year Irrelevant
3. Semi-final of Play Off (Winners 2010) Irrelevant
4. Man of Steel Irrelevant
5. Top Try Scorer Irrelevant
6. Club of the Year ?????????
7. Best Supported Club. Relatively unimportant'"
And why are results irrelevant?

???
Are you on the wind up?
League Leaders - irrelevant
Semi finalists - irrelevant
Individual accolades in a team sport - irrelevant
Which bit's don't you get?

Don't want to speak for somebody else but I reckon he means that its irrelevant because we didn't win the grand final and didn't win the challenge cup.
When u strip a season back, they are the main objectives.

| 6 or 7 years ago i think 99% of fans would settle for what we've achieved in the last 3.
we are getting greedy......most other clubs fans can only dream about the success we.ve had lately

| Doom and gloom, mi jobs hanging by a thread, we’ve got a Tory government, the baby’s just chucked up on the new living room carpet, the cat has shat on the duvet, and her indoors has just said “has that damp patch on the ceiling always been there?” and SL is going to pot. No, no doom and gloom here!

| It might not have been the end of season we all hoped for but it has been a successful year. All the achievements have been mentioned and if we need to be reminded how bad it can get just think back to 2006.
No comparison between that season and this.
IL bought the club just prior to the 2008 season, so this is his 5th season.
Look at the state of the club on and off the field since he took over compared to the five and ten year periods prior to him buying the club.
The last two or three years Wigan RL has been winning trophies and making a financial profit.
So how many sporting clubs are doing that?
Is the club successful? You bet!

The club, by it's own definition needs to make a final and win a trophy to be successful. Therefore, by not making a final this season has been unsuccessful and there needs to be an inquest. The fans should not tolerate this type of failure. You need to get the attitude of a James Bond baddie. They never tolerate failure.

Father Ted.
100% agree with what you are saying,since IL took over,the Club has progressed on the field and what is more important off the field.
The 'Central Park' set up is proving to be a benefit to the Town as well as the Club in other areas as well as Rugby League.
Success on the field every year may be nice ,but it cannot be demanded in this day and age.
