This is probably the worst thread I have ever seen on this site…
Lets start off with some blinders on here.
Crowds are poor coz we keep selling our best players…..FFS, if you plan on going to football games based on your best player then there is something wrong with you. I didn’t see Old Trafford’s attendances drop when they sold Ronaldo…get a grip!
We could have pushed for Europe….what! and done an Ipswich…I can see it now, Wigan v Besiktas, how many do you think we would get on considering we only got 14k on playing Chelsea in an FA cup game a few years back. Also extending the season by 8 games would have done wonders for our small squad.
Let the rugby fill the ground…..don’t think I need to answer this
Move out of the town…..yeah, because everyone in St. Helens and Warrington walk around with plain tee-shirts wondering which foorball team to support. It would be as bad as Wigan. In Warrington, nearly everyone wears Scouser top and I am sure it would be the same in St. Helens.
Martinez…….Everyone on here knows I am a Martinez supporter and I think he will do well this season…if people are staying away because of him then you are as mard as most in this wonderful town.
Everyones attendances are down, I work with a Mackem and a Gordie, their attendances are down around 10k because people are finding it hard to attend football matches. Middlesboro (who are twice the size of Latics) got 14k on for their match at the weekend. Some of my mates can’t afford a season ticket so are picking and choosing their matches. The thing with the Scousers and the Mancs is that if 5000 people don’t turn up, there is another 5000 who will….we don’t have that luxury (and a lot of teams don’t).
So stop winging, if you can afford it, get behind the boys and follow your passion. Like him or hate him, Martinez is here to stay at your club…the club you love and adore….COME ON YOU BLUES!!!

be a new account for me in the next few days fil as I have lost faith in Manuel. he is not the man for the gig so to speak. Jimmy cornflakes( not Kelloggs I guess? ) stop trying to defend the undefendable? and stop comparing potatoes with eggs :roll:
edit.. ps jimmy own brand cornflakes. you really are a deluded fool. bobs finished? . he is a dead man walking. its GAME OVER pal. people like you can carry on papering over the cracks all you like but the roaches will always find away in?
Give hime some time. I know a lot of people have said he had a full season here but he has had to deal with revolt, respect and a change in players, style and full management team.
I will support Martinez as I have seen glimpses of what we could be. Its only time before the 30 minutes of great football grows to 90 minutes. Everyone in the game (manager included) think Bob is a good manager….and they know the game.
Slate me all you want but I don’t know a better manager who would come to this club and would be proud to manage Wigan Athletic.
Jimmy,you speak a lot of sense pal, stick to your guns. There appears to be something of a lynch mob mentality about the manager on here and a few other places which is pathetic ( not all anti-bob posters grouped in that BTW ) No doubt quite a few were sharpening their knives and were gutted that we didnt roll over at Hartlepool last night and theyll have been rubbing their hands again tonight at the prospect of watching Spurs and knowing that theyll wallop us on Sat.
Simple fact is if you watched spurs tonight, city Monday, these teams are leagues ahead of us, as are Chelsea and yet still with our tiny support base people are expecting champagne football with the beer money we have.

yes yes whatever….. you see glimpses of good football for 30 minutes ( bob…. we have to take the positives and we played well for 35-40 minutes). a goal is scored by the team were playing and the team capitulates time and time again(bob in after match interview…..we have to be strong and learn blah blah blah(p1ss weak underbelly is what I call it). sick of it my self?. i will still go on come what may as its been in my blood for 28 years. the roaches are every where now and a thrashing at the lane on saturday? then I am afraid the sooner rento kill get called the better? :?
