I think this day of announcements has been a real disappointment and shows far disconnected the club is to the fans.
Regardless of the quality of signings (which is I'm still not sold on) or resignings (can't agree with Clubb or Hankinson at all), the club built this up with their teaser posts on social media...all for what? To announce things we already new!! Worst kept secrets were Clarke, Bibby, Clubb and Burgess resigning!!
Just don't get what's going on with that marketing department or with senior management to sign it off!!
Built up a lot of hope for absolutely nothing!!
No coaching appointment despite the need to act fast!! What it does tell me is that it must be Lam staying on to sanction those singings so why keep beating around the bush just get it signed and tell us!!
Still 4-6 really top quality players short of even competing next year imo
Really really poor from Wigan today
I could have stomached it all in one announcement but building it up to the final announcement of Hankinson was a bit of a joke. It was all a tease really and all common knowledge apart from the Hankinson and the juniors deals.
We have got away with substandard recruitment for a few years but to compete next season we need to pull something out of the bag recruitment wise this off season, Williams has his critics but unless he is replaced by quality we’re going to really struggle next year.
