Agree Canvey Island but look what happened after that in was onwards and upwards,gossip has it that Whelan went into the drssing room after that game and told all the senior pro’s that Jewell was the man and they could all f*** off.On talk sport yesterday they aired the interview with Ian Holloway who said his players listened to him ,but all the touchline instructions from Martinez were seemed to be ignored by Wigan players either they could not understand or prepared to ignore make your own conclusion, but is there a troublemaker in the camp?
Wrong mate, that was after the Wrexham defeat in the auto-windscreens, or whatever it was called then.
Perhaops, now is the time for him to visit the dressing room again.
Knowing nothing about it at all, but if I had to pick a nigger* in the woodpile, I would point the finger at Scharner. Totally unfounded accusation of course, but that would be my guess if I had to pick one.
* can you still use that phrase?[/quote]
Griff I don’t think that accusation is at all unfounded………didn’t anyone see Scharner at the Wolves game openly defy Roberto’s instructions from the touchline……………raising his arms and ‘shooing’ the instuctions away. He got a bl00dy gobfull from me the lazy pranuck.
We need someone else in to support Roberto (see my views on the “we’re going down” thread)…..someone to help play the ‘good cop/bad cop’ routine. Roberto remains the Mr Nice Guy whilst lazy playing staff get their harris’s kicked.
Interesting thread this where we all share a few common misgivings. Some are concerned about the quality of players that we have to hold onto our premiership status, some think we lack a little bit of leadership on the field and others feel that our coaching staff may be a little ‘lacklustre’……………….how about some radical thought.
We have all openly discussed the above but has anyone given any thought to what Stoke are doing at present – never mind bringing in more playing staff how about appointing ‘Peter Reid’ as Roberto’s No2 (when I say Peter Reid it may not necessarily be him but another fairly high profile guy who has experience at this level………..Carlos Quieoz (sp) at ManU did it, Ray Wilkins at Chelsea does it etc).
Mr W could make the call and hijack the stokies deal……Reid is a Northerner, wouldn’t cost that much and if he left after a year then hey….Roberto’s just tucked a first year in the prem under his belt and loads of experience with it. It would give us that second look at the team mid-game when Roberto’s ‘flair style’ may not be working and plan B needs to be put in place.
Just a thought like………………………
It would appear Mr Scholes, that just like informed opinion, irony is also lost on some of the people on this board……
:roll:
Beat me to it Griff…….
Loyalty? I have to laugh at his delusions……the fella does indeed need medication.
Phrases like “not as long as he’s got a hole in his ar*se” come to mind.
Looking forward to them coming to the DW – wonder how the reception will be?
Wouldnt say it was harsh….fair enough he scored 2 goals…one was lucky and one was good…but he has never played ‘outstanding’ or even good enough to warrant a place in my opinionOutstandingly F£ck£ng Fentastic………………………in my opinion

………………… 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”.
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
