    Please disregard everything I have said, the penny has just dropped regarding the identity of Springfield Blue. It is a long lost adversary with a different username. The very one that taught Dave from Skelm all about reality. If I had known I would have stayed in retirement.

    As previously stated, there are big risks associated with the radical change in playing style. We need to be patient and support the club or else we could very well make the transition impossible. I for one would not like us to play like Stoke although I would be the first to admit that it would make survival easier.

    Loudmouthblue made a valid point elsewhere about our play being too slow and laboured on tuesday. I put this down to playing in an as yet unfamiliar way and not having a full squad of players with the required technical ability to play this way.

    But, as Northern Soul aficionados would say “Keep the Faith” and all will be well.

    PS Apologies for ranting but the pain was just about subsiding when I read all the garbage from the prophets of doom. They made me feel even worse.

    Owd Git, please don’t go back into retirement we need pearls of wisdom from the likes of you. There are many, including me, who agree with you that to totally change the way you play doesn’t happen over night and the even more cleverer ones realise that there maybe some of the players don’t have the techinal ability to play the way Rob wants them too. Sometimes in life and sport you need to loose to realise were your weaknesses are so you can fix them. For me that was Tuesday and I would sooner fix it at the beginning of the season than at the end if we are needing the points.
    Please stick around (I am not gay, i am a lady!!!)

      ………………… as Mark Twain said in 1897.

      I decided, on the demise of rivals, that I would not bother registering or posting on the new Cockney Latics message board. This was because I grew tired of the ” absolutely hilarious ” posts of the various multi-posters and because there wasn’t really much to say that hadn’t already been said.

      I have been forced out of retirement by the absolutely pathetic posts of people who claim to have supported the latics since time immemorial (Springfield Blue et al ). If they consider that the loss to Wolves on tuesday was such a big deal then they are lying when they claim to be a supporters at all, let alone for fifty years. I won’t bother repeating the real disasters that have befallen us over the years, because they are well documented, but the loss of one match pales into insignificance in comparison.

      Roberto Martinez is completely changing the playing style of the club. The result will be more pleasing on the eye but there are risks involved. The biggest risk is that the transformation may take too long and result in relegation. The transformation will take time because we need players who have the necessary technical ability to play the way that Roberto wants ( I don’t think we have enough of them yet ) and it will also take time to adjust. We also need fans who have patience and understand what radical changes are taking place.

      Springfield Blue and the others are charlatans because a “true” fan would feel pain and not anger after tuesday night. They would share the pain of Roberto Martinez and the players who were desperately trying to win for us. They would not attack them in such a childish, stupid, and pathetic way.

      I felt pain because, after all these years, I still feel that I am part of Wigan Athletic and I share in both it’s joy and anguish. I would invite Springfield Blue and the other consumate moaners to crawl back under their various stones – you wont be missed at “New Springfield”.

      It is precisely because I have Latics blood flowing through my veins that I am angry at the dire performance that was presented last night. On that performance it didn’t look as if they were desperately trying to win. Martinez said that theteam were tired after playing Villa on Saturday. How my heart bleeds for them. They should try working eight hour shifts, nights on a regular basis or even going down the pit and working every hour available to bring up the family. Then they could claim to be tired![/quote]
      I think the reason he said they are tired was because some had been all round the world on inter duty.

        Well said Owd Git!! Some of the remarks on here beggars belief. :roll:

        Time that those who don’t want to face the truth decided to go elsewhere. Whelan is running the club on a shoestring budget and look at the problems we’ve got, (sells Cattermole after saying he is going nowhere), and fans who wont wake up and recognise the danger signs. ..[/quote]
        what exactly is the truth Springfield could you let us in on it.

          Actually it was “This report of my Death was an exaggeration”…….always the bloody pedant me (you assumed that people were ar*sed that you had actually ‘ahem’ passed over)………(insert inane smilie here)

          However, good to see you again Mr Owd, an orator from the ‘old’ school. Moreover, I agree that there is change within the team and the style that we play (and that does indeed take time) but……the risk you talked about earlier should have been assessed (come on you are an educated person….you’ve written a bit!) and this change has come too soon for our players. So let’s peel this back a little…………regardless of salary, if you change too quickly – expect mistakes.

          ps. how’s the ‘verbose’ one?

          Kindest Regards

                  PS You are indeed correct either way.
