if that mons worth 10 million ………………..
…..boselli must be worth 40 million :confusion-seeingstars:
Ben Watson and co in our midfield absolutely battered him today. Still can’t believe he never got booked kicked most of our side and moaned about every decision, a proper big time Charlie.
Undoubtedly the best performance of the season, just when they needed to be stood up and be counted. Superb display. :clap: :clap: :clap:Well said Yosser we where far superior to Blackpool today and won at a canter. Played some really good stuff today and for once took our chances. Charlie and Hugo were class today and for all you who question why Hugo plays hang your heads in shame.
If they lose why give them a massive reception. If they lose they are down which means they have not been good enough all season so why this game show appreciation for lack of effort. I bet you didn’t give them a massive reception the last time they played Blackpool, or the time before that.
Well done, Yosser, that comment just about sums up a proportion of our club’s ‘loyal’ support.
The new Wigan Athletic motto: Wigan till I die, or until they lose – whichever comes sooner.
It is a post intent on rallying support when it’s needed most, and yet again you have turned it into an anti-Martinez thread.
You are basically condoning booing, or at the very least not applauding them if they don’t win.
Edit: I think you’ll find McGoose, a rugby supporter, is taking the p1ss out of you. All those times that Latics supporters have accused the rugby lot of being glory hunters, and when times don’t look as rosy, you’re willing to turn your back on the team you profess to support.[/quote]
Standish I don’t condone booing but if on Saturday we get beat by an average Blackpool side I will not be cheering them off the field. As I feel anything less then 3 points and we are down and IMO relegation is certainly nothing to be proud of.
I will however be saying a few prayers that we can get enough points to stay up despite of our clueless manager.
great offer to be fair bums on seats are needed for the final push:text-goodpost: :text-goodpost: :text-goodpost:
Didnt think he played badly on Saturday saying that he was playing as a winger. I would like to see him start against blackpool in place of Watson whos corners against were gash. Why does Cleverley not take these as he is the best crosser in the squad?Another player who couldn’t hit a cows arse with a bazooka just what we need. Then you can say how well we played without scoring and should never have lost.
Sounds just like our delusional manager :angry-banghead: :angry-banghead: :angry-banghead:
Away to a side at the top of the league who had scored 14 goals in their previous two games against the Latics. Maybe he’d decided that this game was one where the best result he could get was a 1-0 defeat and to keep his goalscorers fresh for the next 6 games where the chances of getting 9+ points are much higher.I would suggest that Bob is secretly chuffed that neither his key players nor his goal difference took any significant injury on Saturday.
I’m afraid the time for 1-0 defeats being celebrated are long gone, we are serioulsy running out of games. Our goal difference is that bad it’s a bit late to be worrying about it. If Bob goes to Blackpool with the same team as Saturday we will get beat because Blackpool will score and god knows were our goals will come from.
Yes I am sure you aer a supporter, but can you not understand that the point I was making was not what you were ranting about. Honestly its like being in a room with someone with turrets, just randomly shouting insults about Bob when it wasnt relevant. Am sure you can wait until someone praises Bob before you go off one one.
The two results against Spurs are good results granted but count for nowt if we go down. And IMO certainly not what I would look back on with loads of pride if we do go down. Whichever way you look at our team it is now Bob’s team and I’m sure he would take the credit if we were doing well so when were not he is open to critisism. :shock: :shock: :shock: [/quote]
Oh and if we are going to have future debates about Wigan Athletic lets try not to use insults. Just because I don’t share your views certainly does not mean I have torrets.

why would playing two up front be the only way of us having a right good go? I think we’ve had a good go of it in the last 6 gamesWhen your struggling for goals play two, oh forget legolad read my earlier posts.
Tyldesley, I don’t know if you are not seeing the wood for trees here, or if you are being deliberately pedantic as a matter of principle.In my post from which you have picked up the phrase ‘stands to reason’ , I stated:
‘midfield…it stands to reason that if you are a man down or lightweight in that area you will not have the possession to create chances.’
Bearing in mind the phrase ‘lightweight’ does not refer to a lack of numbers, is that not a fair statement? (ie. In summary, if you are not winning it/are being muscled out in midfield you will not have possession, and therefore will not have the ball to create chances?)
At no point have I said five in midfield would guarantee you will win control.
Likewise, is the following not a fair statement?
If you are outnumbered in midfield, you have more chance of being overrun than if you are not outnumbered.
Let’s break it down to base levels: so if in theory, the number of players you have in midfield doesn’t have any bearing on your ability to control the game, why not play two there, and go 4-2-4?
Would you agree that three should give you a stronger midfield than two? Therefore you’d agree that four should be stronger than three? But should five not be a stronger midfield than four?
Yes, there are teams with very good midfielders who can play outnumbered and still come away on top, but that is when there’s a mismatch in ability – a luxury not enjoyed at Wigan, and a theory not risked by many managers.
Therefore, to refer back to my previous posts, if you are playing against a team with an extra man in midfield, or you need to strengthen your midfield, it stands to reason that putting an extra man there should assist you, but no, it’s not guaranteed to do that.
So don’t give me that tosh ‘you’ve tried to reason it’. I have reasoned it, and it does stand to reason. It’s a case of simple common sense that a numerical advantage gives you more of a fighting chance than having a numerical disadvantage.
You would think so Standish but how many times have we proved your theory wrong in the last two seasons????
The results against spurs seem to be a turn around for me, maybe I can see to much of a positive against gaining 4 points off a team that beat us twice last year and provided the worse result I have ever seen, plus they are a champions league quarter finalist…
Na you are right that was rubbish Wigan
We are bottom of the league and for most of this season and most of last season have been rank. How the fook can you be proud of the team????
I suppose you are one of the delusional few who have convinced themselves that Bob is doing a great job.[/quote]
Maybe he his a supporter rather than a negative fool who picks out any reason for a go at Martinez[/quote]
I’m a supporter and will be till I shuffle of this mortal coil but just because I support the club does not mean I will sit in silence. Football is about opinions and Bob is doing nothing to change my opinion of him.
Why not play both Hugo and Connor and if we are to go down at least we can say in the last few games in the Premier League we had a right good go.

:text-goodpost:
Agree.
i was disappointed Hugo didnt go off for Sammon against spurs.
Hugo did not have his best game for us but is the only one who has a goal in him[/quote]
4 goals in 20 games !!! Hardly a threat is he !! :shifty: [/quote]
Who else have we got who scores goals ???????
DiSanto :doh: :doh: :doh:Apologies for being positive about a half decent result and turn around for the fans in 12 months…It must be a sh*thole of a mind you live in looking for the negatives for everything in life.
What turn around for the fans???? We are worse this year than last and two results do not make a season. So may be my sh*thole of a mind as you put it is not completely empty as yours must be if you honestly believe the bollox you posted.
