Lack of investment. I think the expression is, if you've always do what you have always done, then you'll always be what you've always been. Its been coming, after a stellar season an unforgettable season last year, they've run out of ideas im afraid and its been coming for ages.

The HDM describe it as a not quite capacity crowd.
You could say either half full or half empty? Not quite capacity is bending it a bit but typical HDM RL speak.The HDM describe it as a not quite capacity crowd.
Watched the game and the build up and the BBC Wigan love fest was as bad as people have always said it was.
Also, not a RL fan, but Rovers never got a decision today, everything went to Wigan when it mattered. The Wigan commentators were falling over themselves to say how good the game was, personally I thought it was very average.
Have several relations there today and one of them was back at his hotel, in bed, before the final whistle blew. Says it all.
Sometimes teams catch up with you. Rovers had an incredible season last year and it stands on its own merit. Hopefully they can re charge and go again.
Got into st pancras on way down to Brighton about 45 mins ago....lots of very glum looking faces in red
Poor performance from Rovers. Very flat with no cutting edge or invention at all. It was hot but Wigan played the conditions much better.
I blame the Ref for the defeat terrible performance
Typical HDM. Not quite a capacity attendance. It was two thirds full. Would they describe a 16.000 crowd for a City game as not quite a capacity crowd.
Of course not. Rovers fans make Wembley a sea of red and white as they crowd into Wembley…What colours do Wigan fans wear?Cherry and white.Typical HDM. Not quite a capacity attendance. It was two thirds full. Would they describe a 16.000 crowd for a City game as not quite a capacity crowd.

It's our time.
It was miles off a full house. Almost all of the upper ring of seats was empty and there were plenty of spaces in the lower part.
My tickets were only £25 each so that can't be blamed.

Oh aye, that'll be the priority.
"The crowd was likely impacted by a number of Wigan fans heading to Paris next week for their game against Catalans Dragons... "

So, like saying a 15,000 crowd at a City game was a not quite capacity crowd.Though you can bet that is not the way the HDM would describe it.
Better a tosspot than some of the ****bags on here who begrudge our players a celebratory drinks fest this week, they put the cur in curmudgeonly.
It's our time.
