Latest Lenegan Interview - Wigan TV : Thu Sep 29, 2016 6:15 pm
Latest interview from Mr Lenegan is on Wigan TV now. Some interesting points made.
Disappointed with the season overall - feels we should have beaten Hull in the cup semi and missing out on the league leaders but is confident we can win tomorrow and win the grand final.
Says our attack hasn't clicked at all this season and puts that down to the volume of injuries.
Says Wigan have been talking to around 6 players over the last few weeks weighing up their options due to injury and which team gets relegated etc.
No attacking coach to come in at the end of the season - sounds like they're happy with Tommy coming back and the influence he will bring.
Some points made about safe standing - not a priority.
Disappointed with the attendances and how many tickets being sold - reviewing season ticket prices and match day ticket prices.
Simon Collinson currently reviewing fan surveys, understandably will take time and looks forward to hearing the feedback.
Talks about the RL in general - says he doesn't agree with the current format but thinks we should stick with it for the 3 years and then review where we are at. Feels RFL should put SL first by pumping money into the SL instead of spreading across the championship and thinks thats the reason the quality has dwindled. Also talks about Bilko and the issues he has raised about the game and says he agrees with the majority of points made.
Finally an interesting point about how we came 2nd in the RL museum vote. Says the club and council invested lots of money and time in preparing their concept. Says the was going to be a museum on on the pier and a bar/hospitality in the old orwell which would have been great but unfortunately didn't get the nod. Says they're looking at a different location but basically said it isn't as good as the original concept.
Various of other points made too but just a general overview for people who don't have Wigan TV - certainly an interesting watch if you do.
