      Well I certainly didn’t own one 10 years ago and I certainly don’t think many if any at all owned one on my window cleaning round, which is a pretty affluent area I hasten to add ! I see one of my stalkers has jumped on board, the one from Manc land !

      I think the fact that just short of 250 ( At time of this posting ) clicked on this thread because they thought the replay was going to be on tv makes me a winner all round ! I love it when a plan comes together mwaahaahaa!!! :silly:

      Winner? I would say the word ‘loser’ is more suitable ;) B)

        I don’t know who.. But I vote for the Wing Back. Preferably (Definitely) the LWB. Anything to replace Beausejour. B)

          It’s ok constantly referring to how Wigan played in last seasons run in but that was an enigma and has in no way whatsoever been replicated since, why is this ? It is a mystery to me ! This season has been poor on the whole and there is very little evidence performance wise to counter my observation ! Something is not right and I just think that some of the excuses are feeble. Opinion mind !!

          I was just referring to the last season’s run in response to people saying our style of play is boring.

          It isn’t always, and it doesn’t necessarily have to be. When it clicks, it works brilliantly well and I’d rather watch a team playing well with our style of play than one playing well with kick and rush tactics.

          A couple of things summed some of our supporters up for me on Saturday. One bloke near me was screaming for them to stop with this all this ‘possession rubbish’ and get it forwards, then was on his feet again when it was lumped forward and they lost possession, and when Stam miscontrolled the ball and it when into touch, someone jumped up and called Martinez a ‘dick head’.

          Incidentally, the one who called Martinez a ‘dick head’ was the same one who also hurled abuse at Gomez saying ‘You should have put that penalty away first time’.[/quote]

          If somebody actually said/shouted that then it must be a joke. Nobody with any braincells would make a comment like that seriously. The ONLY reason for anybody making that comment would be if it was said in jest.

            LWB is our greatest need, Beausejour is absolute garbage and I don’t think he wants to put Figgy there.

            Yes, but I was basing my thoughts on what I think Roberto thinks, not what you think. I don’t think that Roberto thinks Boozy Joe is garbage.[/quote]

            I didn’t say you was basing your thoughts on what I think Griffamunda. Just thought I was just putting my opinion of what I think our greatest need is out there.

            Martinez needs to realise that Fat Jean is our weakest link! ;)[/quote]

            Yes but, my little card shark, my point is that Martinez doesn’t think Boozy is our weakest link so don’t expect him to look to replace him[/quote]

            Have you asked Roberto this question? If not how do you know?? He may think he is the weakest link but knows nobody that we can realistically capture to replace him so isn’t bothering? ;)

            But seriously, even I don’t believe that what I wrote above is true (although technically it is possible).. And I don’t expect him to replace JB, I just personally think that he is currently our worst player so I personally would want him to look for a replacement for that position. I do think a LWB is our greatest need in all honesty. Suppose it’s just wishful thinking then ay? B)

                May be a long shot here but I’m hoping recalling Dicko from his loan spell at Blackpool is to offer Palace on loan as part of a deal for Zaha.

                Holloway has had both McMannaman and Dicko on loan in the past and we’ve dealt with Palace twice in the past (that I can remember) with deals for Watson and Moses.

                Palace are doing really well so I’m sure there’s a few players worth looking at. The 2 that spring to mind though are Zaha and Glenn Murray.

                It may however just be a case of adding extra cover to the strikers positions with it looking likely Kone will be going to the African Nations.

                I think Zaha is WAYYYYY out of our reach.. But that being said, if he gets told to look at Moses and what he achieved then maybe he could be convinced :) Incredibly unlikely though.

                Not seen much of Murray so wouldn’t like to comment.

                  I also had a winner on that game,I collected mine before the next game under the South stand no issue.However they would like you collect online if possible that way you open an account with them and gamble your life away on line.

                  Not been on their site online..

                  Only thing I would tend to do online is Poker.. Used to always be on it.. Saying that it isn’t quite ‘gambling my life away’ as more or less all the times I would be up and have won a decent wedge

                  Why did u pack in then when you were winning wads of money. You inferred that you used to bet online which infers you don’t now. If I had the poker tallent that you claim then I would still be cleaning them out.
                  PS Hope this thread doesn’t trigger filmoss into starting his nags tipster service.[/quote]

                  I used to play a lot whilst bored to be honest, but online is full of bad beats, so even with pure skill you tend to get beat every so often, ‘co-incidentally’ when the stakes are high. I still won money but the chances and seemingly fixed beats made me not want to risk it anymore, I prefer to play live.

                  Since moving in with my Partner I completely stopped with the hours of online Poker, and with rent and bills etc to pay for and a lot more outgoings I have stopped Poker completely more or less, although if she is working late I may log on and have a cheeky tenner or so B)

                    A new right wing back? Do you have someone in mind?

                    Boyce is playing well, although Martinez will have to consider a replacement in due course. And Stam has been a good stand-in while Boyce has been in the back three.

                    That’s not to say that there aren’t better players in the league, but I wouldn’t say that a right wing back is our greatest need at the moment.

                    However, you don’t always know where the problems are going to occur. I think that Ramis has been an enormous asset this season. With all their injuries to centre backs, I hate to think where Wigan would have been without him.

                    I also wouldn’t think RWB is our greatest need.

                    LWB is our greatest need, Beausejour is absolute garbage and I don’t think he wants to put Figgy there.

                    Also as Griff said, a good striker would be welcomed, lets hope that Henrique guy bangs some in B)

                      I know what your saying ..I have the say I’m gifted with the women and find it easy but never come out in profit tough.

                      I’m sure you could find a way to turn it into profit ;)

                      And Griff.. I may have to do that B)

                        Good for you…most people don’t have a positive experience on such sites.

                        True.. Poker is different though as there’s a skill element involved… If you are as naturally gifted at the game like myself it can turn a big profit for you B)

                                I hacve heard you have a book out.. Is this correct??

                                Two books, actually

                                You’re a young ‘un, you must have a facebook account – go on, like my page! :kiss:

                                Go on, you know you want to

                                I’ve heard Writers/Authors drink a lot.. Is that also true? :)

                                Guilty as charged, ny friend. Wouldn’t describe myself as a writerauthor, but I certainly drink a lot.[/quote]

                                On a serious note.. How much are the books and what are they about? Looking for something to read at the moment.

                                Also, what is the reason that writers are known for drinking?? Why is it a ‘thing’.. Don’t get it.

                                And last but not least, what is your FB page actually called? FaceBook is blocked from our works computer so I will go on Mobile and like it :)
