    Our last meaningful game was against Everton. I thought we looked quite good in that match apart from being “toothless”. We can’t really criticise a defence who let one goal in because it shouldn’t have mattered.

    Martinez has obviously realised how toothless we are and has signed two players who could be sensational for us (given a chance!). I just wish that all the doom-mongers would crawl back under their stones until the end of the season at least. It is much more disheartening listening to them than it was watching the awful display against Notts.

      Post of the week award goes to……..Owd Git.

      Bang on. Decent display last weekend, apart from the finishing. In my honest opinion, I think Scotland AND Rodallega will be shipped out in the summer. I can imagine Rodallega at Sunderland, as Jones’ replacement. Honestly. I just don’t think he fits into Roberto’s game plan. He can go missing too easy. That’s one thing Scotland isn’t guilty of, going missing, but he just hasn’t got that ‘class’ what is needed.

        Do you know what VAT / Dave – you get alot of stick on here at times but on this one

        ‘He can go missing too easy. That’s one thing Scotland isn’t guilty of, going missing, but he just hasn’t got that ‘class’ what is needed’

        I think you have got it spot on – a similar point of view or a new thread would be look at the talented individual players say Koumas and then look at how much they dont appear to try – no arguing Scotland tries which in a perverse way I admire him for – he just hasnt got the skill, which makes the likes of Koumas who earn a vast amount of money despised

        Why oh why keep going on about Jason Scotland? Just because some people do not get on his back and deride him doesn’t automatically mean that they think he is as good as Alan Shearer etc. Please change the record and post something positive about Moreno or Moses.

        PS Don’t tell me Koumas is Premier League standard !

        We’re playing okay, just not putting the goals in. 2 new signings should help that, and 3 points against Moomin face Bruce will make the table look a lot better. Caldwell will help the defence, and them we get shot of the tat like Koumas in the Summer and alls well with the world.

          Owd Git – I would love to write something positive about our two new strikers, buy unfortunatly I have never seen them play – so I cannot judge or give an opinion yet

          I have seen Scotland play and if you read my post I am not saying he is cack I am saying he tries – so I am being positive

          So get down to the optician and get them eyes checked – at your age you will get a free test

          Hows about ” Crystal Palace fans all agree that Victor Moses is a real talent. I can’t wait to see him in action alongside our other new signing Moreno who looks absolutely brilliant on youtube. Roberto has done really well to attract players of this calibre. Lets hope they can do it in Wigan Athletic shirts. Roll on Saturday”.

          Believe it or not, the rest of us have been watching Jason Scotland as well. We can all see what he “brings to the table” so why keep going on and on and on and on about him. I think the words “Jason Scotland” should be banned from this forum but then 50% of contributors would have nothing to say.

            Oh do behave Mr Owd………..

            As well as chucking a bucket of water over the rutting sycophants, your quote above could have read anything…………….let’s just substitute a couple of words:

            Remove Crystal Palace insert Swansea
            Remove Victor Moses insert Jason Scotland
            Remove Moreno insert Aghahowa

            you see – you can make any assumptions you like……………what it akins to is the lazy journo-ism you get in the redtops.

            Apologies to JS fans – I just used his name as an example. ;)

            Yeah, I know – I was being facetious because he couldn’t think of anything positive to say. Once you reach my age (late forties) you just seem to lose a little patience. It’s just that every thread seems to turn into a JS thread (bloody hell, I’ve done it myself now). The transfer window is shut now and there is nothing else we can do but get behind the team.

            Just to make myself really unpopular – when the Warriors were in deep trouble, their crowds went up and they rallied them into what they call the great escape. Not much chance of that happening here I’m sad to say !!!

            Cue the ” I always knew he was a chubster” brigade.

            PS I don’t remember being all that excited about Scotland and Aghahowa coming to be honest although Aggers did look the part when I first saw him at Halifax – just shows how wrong even I can be 8-) .

              So we are not allowed to have a go at Scotland who has done nothing for us goal wise (except the one against Notts County), yet you can slate Koumas??

              Koumas has scored more premier league goals this season and last season that Scotland ever has or ever will. If Koumas is not Premier class, then Scotland is not South Lancs class.

              Perhaps, Bob, the late forties was a bit tongue in cheek. :geek:

                Late 40’s – christ!

                I thought you had consumed too many halves of mild down the club at dinner time the way you were going on and I had disturbed you from your afternoon slumber owd mon

                Its all about opinions and lets say I am more optimistic with the two Ms in the squad than I was before they arrived

                i dont’t think so griff, all the hallmarks of the lesser spotted multi me thinks ;)

                #21396

                your typical multi is like this guy, you have to remember what you have said in the past and keep them plates spinning or you have a lot of broken crockery on the floor and a cloth to wipe the egg of your face

                ps. i looked for a failed plate spinner but could not find one, i suggest a pen and paper to keep a record of your multi’s 8-)
