Where is Vastman he seldom misses a chance to post on every topic. I suppose he is looking for the positives before he posts, so he could be sometime.

I'm sure that at some stage he'll be on here to give his honest appraisal after digesting the game, unlike some on here yourself included he tends not to go in feet first with a knee jerk reaction, but don't let that stop your pettiness, after all he has made you look rather foolish over the years, so you go for it chief and fill yer boots.

I'd probably say Scarlett wins in this one.
He makes himself look foolish far more times than Vasty does it to him.
It's a finely honed skill.

Well, that was disappointing.
More than competitive in the first half but, our attacking play was mickey poor.
Yes, Wigan's defence was excellent but, we were totally impotent with ball in hand.
There has to be more than "give it to Fifita" as an attacking idea and out last tackle options were awful.

Wigan did well to exploit our left side but, we were very, very poor in the 2nd 40.

One thing I did notice is that Lino was getting hit late after more or less every kick, there was no one from our side protecting him. They just let the Wigan lads do it over and over again.

I regret that a 19% winning percentage and your continued failure to accept what is clear to see takes foolish to an whole new level.

Accept what?
I do accept our win-loss ratio. Its a fact.

I agree. It was picked up once by the ref but we needed to protect him.

Sadly though realistic expectations given the current status of the club.

When should we worry or does being a supporter means you have to put up with winning ratio of 19% which if continued would result in relegation with the first to leave being Chester.
I admire your attempt to fund the club to promote the team unfortunately they are not helping you and the others with your cause. I am afraid that except for the diehards interest comes from success not a string of defeats.
