Think positive, if we lose against West Brom tonight West Brom can only move 1 place further away from us,
It’s never over till the fat lady has a gastric band
Thinking positive, is the fat lady available to manage the team?
As Freddie at Arsenal, Parkinson at Sunderland and even O’Neil at Stoke are proving, a new manager doesn’t necessarily guarantee a change of fortune. And we can’t just give the keys of our wonderful club to just anyone, especially after investing so much at the grass roots level and its bearing fruit.
Unfortunately though, Cook does seem to be at his limit and the constant clutching defeat from the jaws of victory has to come down to Cook, his game management and the general coaching and organisation of the team.
We’re between a rock and a hard place at the moment and perhaps thats why the club is so silent.
Onto Wednesday, I like to see us approach it like a cup tie, kick anything in green and yellow that moves, 5 at the back, early crosses whipped into Moore who has gambled correctly, Naismith as sweeper (ouch!) and Joffy with a 93rd minute winner!
Not too hard is it?
Arsenal were 1-0 down when I started typing this!

Welcome back SSB, where have you been all these weeks?[/quote]

Welcome back stu.
When your talking with your dog, who takes the lead?
I’m also very curious about Cooks team selection, and strangely optimistic about this game.
I’ll call the doctors in the morning!
Given the situation of our squad this week, and free scoring West Brom’s league position, a last second defeat would mean we will have played very well.
We could do with Rambarrow on the pitch on Wednesday.
West Brom have scored 5 (last time I looked) today and we’ve got one central defender.
Score predictions anyone?
Head says 0-6
Heart says 0-0The summer recruitment bit us in the backside yesterday. We spent way more than we expected but only got one central defender in, on loan, and looking injury prone. Dunkley and Kipre were shocking last season and too much faith has been put in them. Fox and Mulgrew might be half decent, but we’ll never know as their always on the treatment table.
Whoever is in charge come January has to prioritise finding some steady defenders.
When typing this it feels like I’ve stated the most stupidly obvious issue ever, but does the management see these things?
The club must be trembling at the thought of this Edwards. I know VAT threatened some extreme action in the week with his one man pitch invasion but not buying a programme and a pie is gonna send tremors all the way to Hong Kong surely.People who know me will tell you that my pie consumption should not be underestimated.
I know it is futile but I can’t just do nothing and let the club fall apart and give up, as it seems at the moment. If everyone did the same it might have some impact but that’s not going to happen.
We’re all saying similar things on here week after week and someone at the club must read them but there’s no action or reaction . I know they shouldn’t normally listen to us but results speak for themselves.Hopefully there will be some change this week and I can have my beloved pie again.
Fair point egg and it’ll save my eyes witnessing the horror, thing is, if we’re winning, you have to cheer the lads home, thats the joy of supporting your team, from memory (distant)
If Cook is still in charge on Wednesday I’ll still go and support the team. But I will attend my seat after kickoff to make some kind of small protest.
I hope a miss a Latics goal, it’ll be worth it
This is one of the many reasons I’m proud to support Latics and hoping in blind hope we scrape some kind of win tomorrow.
… that geranium plant has been sat in some compost in my garage for 3 months, just got round to putting it in my planter. Looks great!Will you stop planting this muck, although it would make a very nice leaving present for Cookie
