Paul Jewell has resigned

But you just suggested we stagnated between 2002 and 2006 while the USA went backwards. Now you're moving the goalposts to suit your argument. At the end of the day, do you really think we would DEFINITELY have fared much better than the USA if we'd been drawn in their group?

We were shit in Germany. We had gone backwards.

What an attitude! So, only the "big" fashionable clubs with their predominantly journeymen overpaid prima donnas deserve to be in the Premiershite. Wigan got there by results, if they subsequently obtain enough points to stay up, they have just as much right to be there as the bigwigs. I know what sort of team I'd rather support and it's not one of the big four.

what is all this...." I wouldn't support the big 4 teams" This seems to come up on here at some regularity.

I know loads of people who support the "big 4" and they have just as much fun as we do, the difference being they win things, see the best players in the world regularily and get to sit in stadiums full to the gills every week with 60,000+ fans and have great european nights....something we have never had!

Is this a tinge of green eyed monster?

Our final place in each tournament has been the same so it suggests we have stagnated. Just look at the results, quarter finals each time. Where as Arena made the quarter finals and then next time went out in the first round.

However, do carry on.
