Been studying them and watching footage of them. They actually look a lot better than people will be thinking. They play at a good pace, knock the ball round very well, and have a few players who may cause us problems.
I think they will give us a game, and with 1000 or so loud fan’s behind them, may give them a boost. I don’t want us to play a weak side like in the other cup games, or we might come unstuck.
They look far more professional an outfit than anyone would think and we will have to be on our game fully.
I really like what I have seen of them as a non league club. Their people’s enthusiasm is refreshing.
Football’s all about levels, a fully fighting fit Wigan should win but at the moment we’re not.
I just hope Lowe doesn’t feel the need to give anyone a 2 week break between league games.
There’s an EFL trophy game on the 11th he can give the young lads run out.
So a message to Lowe, please don’t disrespect a trophy that’s given us the greatest ever day in the clubs history
Agree , the FA cup is sacrosanct in my view. , play the best team available and do everything to get a crowd in and aim to progress to the third round.
The midweek Mickey Mouse cup or EFL
trophy or whatever is now even more a reserve team run out than it ever was especially since the premier league reserves joined in and my view is that they just scrap it or revert back to league clubs only with a straight knockout format.
I heard once that the alleged cost of putting a game in at the ground was as around 55k which is very steep and little wonder costs are being cut for these meaningless games.I heard once that the alleged cost of putting a game in at the ground was as around 55k which is very steep and little wonder costs are being cut for these meaningless games.
There’s nothing wrong with cost cutting but turning the scoreboard off and closing every turnstile bar 2 so there’s like 2k-3k on and your queuing ?.
That bellend stupid EFL trophy is pathetic and should be scrapped altogether, no one’s arsed till the semi’sIt might have been a good idea 30 – 40 year ago but times have changed.
It became laughable when they decided to expand it and add U21 sides it became farcical.
It should be
No u21, straight KO straight to pens. I’d sooner see top non league thrown in say teams that missed out in the previous year play offs
in all but name it is a reserve team trophy on a par with A team games from the late 70s and early 1980s and thats why supporters have essentially ditched it.
I think they should fire it off , look how fresher our lads looked last saturday with a week without a game , it was brought in to give little clubs a chance to play at Wembley which they have now anyway with the play offs.
From a business perspective its a time consuming bore fest ,get rid
