It was like a well balanced nutritional feast of football, strength at the back, width with pace from both sides, an actual forward thinking first time passer of the ball in Gibson and the hard work of Massey and Morsey breaking play up.
If I had one criticism to make it would be Griggs positional play. When the ball was whipped into to box he tended to go far post behind or upsides of the defender rather than peeling off and coming across the defender to the near post but if he’s pulling players out of position for others to score goals who am I to critiseRuncorn & DNR …. I’m really sorry to say but you missed a. the best game of the season, and b. the best game we’ve played in the Championship, for ages. You also missed seeing the only club ever to move from bottom to 2nd in 1 game, and deservedly so. We were last night in position for auto promotion. That is how good it was.There wasn’t a stand out M o M; there were 11 of them. It was a real team effort. The litmus test for me is if you are neutral how would you feel at the final whistle. If it were me, and I’m pretty objective and neutral … I’d be going home thinking ‘great game, money well spent’.
Often when we win the ‘nay-sayers’ don’t give us credit but say the oppo were rubbish. Actually Sheffield were pretty good. We were just better.
Callum showed his dancing and dinking skills when he came on. Powell looked as if he could be bothered but needed several injury breaks. He seems to get terribly injured when he and the ball make contact. The new boys …. Kipre-Kone, Robinson who can’t spell his first name but runs faster than a retriever and Gibson were brilliant. Jacobs played one of his best games ever. So good in fact I have suggested to Sharpie he needs to be sold. Number 11 was stand out and Reece James has been having lessons from Jordi Gomez in sublime passes. I could go on. Vaughanie when he came on tore their defence apart. He’s up for everything. Keener than a jack russell looking for a ferret.
We scored and the music came on ….. it was great. Like old times. What’s not to like!!??
Anyway, have you got the message. A great game. A belting atmosphere helped hugely by the Sheffield crowd who made the Cop sound like a Sunday morning service at the local gospel church. Added to all that was a delicious liquid lunch at the WC. (Wigan Central).
Were you by chance the gentleman who commented on my Old Grey Whistle Test t-shirt?
How on earth do you work that out!!!! Tell me and I’ll tell you if I was he!! I can’t see the link or connection any where!! Anyway I want maintain my anonymity
Super Stu and Sammy, a super win, great performamnce, Cooks first win as a Championship manager yet you can still find something to moan about.
Is that not just a typical Wigan response.
No suiting some on here.

(Tongue firmly in cheek)You’ll love the music after we score Donald, it’s right up your street and just the kind of thing you will enthuse about.
I can’t wait for your first match (if you ever manage to save up enough for a matchday ticket) to see your reaction.
Your renewed positivity is fondly awaited.You’re famous GG. ;)
