The Clubs Promise : Sun Feb 22, 2009 5:11 pm  
After Paul Cullen's departure the club stated,

"We are going to take our time and appoint an internationally-renowned coach with a proven track record of success"

James Lowes was to takeover as coach until the end of the season. Fine.

Six weeks later, after some tremendous wins, it was announced that James Lowes was to be coach for 2009 season.

Removing Cullen and replacing him with his totally inexperienced assistant
for the whole season was an unbelievably stupid act, and has now been proven to be so.

It is now time for the club to get professional and appoint what they promised before things spiral downwards both on the field and financially.

I cannot see any other way forward.

Some players are not performing and appear to be totally lacking any coaching at all. There is no game plan, no planned moves, no interest.

Ship without a rudder spring to mind.

The club has to act now. Ellery Hanley is available. Lets grab him.

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

FIOS

Hands off the Pearl.

Dont think he would appreciate being grabbed either, he had enough of that on the ice.

The club are full of broken promises and look all set to rest on their laurels.

I would love to see Ellery here asap but it aint never going to happen.

The warrington board have been slow to react in the past and I cant see them being any different this time.

Things will have to get ugly again before anything transpires. Lets face it Cullen should have been dismissed long before he walked, the last few weeks were painful for all concerned. I fear it will be even worse for Jimmy because really the fans dont have any affinity to him.

The board need to come clean and admit they have made a major mistake. The question is, are they big enough to do so?

that was our beloved Chairman, talking bull again. Wish he would keep his trap shut, too many times he has made gaffs on record. Someone at the club thinks highly of him :roll:

What we really need is George Sampson to dance for the crowd. Once the crowds going the '14th man' we always hear about will come into play. We might be able to score a try against 12 then.
