Why play him for what 1 minute of the second half then bring him off. Was he injured or something. & why not bring on another forward instead of cowie.
Cowie did more in 5 minutes than Maloney did in 45. I’ve been Maloney’s biggest fan for the past 3-4 years, but he has lost his spark at club level. Play for Scotland, world beater, play for Wigan crock of shyte. When he lost the ball today his attitude was woeful, head down and saunter back, I felt sorry for McCann and Watson who carried Maloney for the time he spent on the field, get shut and get some money for him. :angry:

What a journey!John buddy Shaun was Poor yesterday I would say not fit due to illness but was mom v middlesboro but cowie john is awful he would not get in any of the teams we played in at aspull very strange subs yesterday
Sorry Malc but I see it different. When Cowie came on yesterday the whole pace of our game picked up. We started to make significant inroads down the right and it was down to Cowie. Even my mate said we looked a different team when Cowie came on and he is the biggest pessimist ever.
If Maloney is not fit then he shouldn’t be on the field. Last week at Sheff Weds Malky praised him for offering to sit on the bench despite being ill, that would have been bad management if he had allowed him to do that.
Body language says it all really, if Gomez had put his head down like Maloney did yesterday he would have been slated.
I agree that the subs were a bit strange yesterday with us having no centre forward on the field at one point, whilst being 1-0 down with 15 mins to go. :woohoo:
Sentiments have to go out the window I’m afraid, we only want players on the field who are fully fit and giving 110%, Don Cowie IMHO fits that bill.

You have a point there JR. If Malloney had even the slightest hint of the illness that had kept him out of the squad last week then he should not have even made the bench – this would have allowed for a different and additional substitution in the second half and may have had a different impact on how the second half went. I do feel that when you have a player on the pitch who is not firing on all cylinders the others tend to shy away from giving him the ball for fear of it going tits up; it would effectively be like playing with 10 men.
However, I go back to what I said in an earlier post – the look, stature and poise of the players yesterday spoke volumes for me. They see the dwindling crowds, they read the papers, they see a manager under pressure and they are reacting accordingly. I believe the players are part of the problem and are in dire need of a ‘pep’ talk from someone to remind them who exactly is paying their wages.

No. No. No. Please, or we’ll alienate all our players too :P

It is so obvious that Maloney doesn’t want to be here any more. He’ll be gone in January – if anybody wants him.
