As a South Stand season ticket holder I'm struggling to ignite any enthusiasm
in myself for RL in general I know we got beat but is anyone else disalusioned with SL generally?

Bernard Cribbins presenting the CC ffs that started it for me.

Over bearing and poor refereeing.

Inability to watch listen to a game particularly tonight. Sky Sports mix!!! It that SKys end channel..Its almost as if the games being played in secret.

Poor promotion from the RFL

Poor samey SKY presentation.

Too many monotonous games. Hardly any flair on show.

I've loved this game for years but I'm rapidly falling out of love with it.

I know exactly what you mean mate. I've felt the same for the last few months. Can hardly raise any enthusiasm for Wembley, which is unbelievable for me.

It's on Mix, and other "ar5e end" channels because the game is becoming a 10th rate copy of a bog standard NRL match

No risks, no passing no flair.

No wonder attendances are falling.

PLAY ATTRACTIVE RUGBY

Not sure about the whole game but for our part it's absolutely awful. I can barely be d watching us on TV this season. Discipline is awful the errors are embarrassing and the style of play is the most boring I've ever seen.

Yep, cos nobody can be bothered to find sky sports mix. Let's be honest, the channel doesn't matter. We will all find the rugby to watch if we want to. And that's the problem, sky have a,guaranteed audience and it doesn't matter what f#-king channel they put the rugby on!

I’m been a season ticket holder since 2003, there’s been many periods of dissatisfaction and disillusionment following the Wire. This currently is another one, other than CC semi final game our general play and general style of attack has been wanting of late (7/8 weeks), I’m hopefully and believe in Steve Price to get us through this ‘rut’...

However, we need massive kick up the Iyestin ‘Arris if we think we can compete with Saints at Wembley and the back end of the season on current form.

Spot on mate. I feel the same way.

- Boring style of play from most teams most of the time. Five drives and kick to the corner/up n under. GB will get a severe showing up in the winter I fear.

- Repeat, repeat, repeat fixtures. Make it a 14 team league if you have to, but don’t make us play certain teams three or four times. What kind of a league does that and expects the casual fan to fork out each time? What makes a Wigan game special when it’s the third one in a matter of weeks?

- Rubbish coverage, Four or five voices vying to make the most inane comment of the evening every game, it’s embarrassing to watch with a non RL fan, I’ve mates who laugh at it.

- p155 poor officiating with regular mistakes costing sides games. Not just us. Zero credibility or respect in the people who run the league.

- Sky’s apparent disinterest in marketing us as a credible product.

- The slow, depressing death of the challenge cup.

I really could go on, but I’m starting to feel like sticking a Joy Division album on would actually cheer me up!

Are things THAT bad?

There are people who can help

Unfortunately, Patton isn't one of them.
In fact, Ian Curtis ( in his current state) would be an improvement at scrum half

Near 50 years a supporter but when I’m told stadium entertainment is more important that what’s on the pitch, well that’s me done.

Good comments.

Cas fan here. I was saying the same yesterday before your game. I go to watch from habit, but games now lack excitement. It’s the Aussie way, the “process”, the percentages, the metres and stats etc, not the entertainment. We attracted attention in 2017 because of the entertainment, but it didn’t last.
On the subject of Catalan, they are thuggish. I’ve played the game and it’s impossible not to react.

Spot on pal the other year cas were a joy to watch like us when we had Morley briers hodgson etc but all that's gone its become robotic and about power.. And I can't see the free flowing style of rugby coming back..and don't get me started on the officiating..
