Pollard isn’t my cup of tea but I’d sooner have him and/or a consortium lead by him than the current bunch of crooks or anyone associated with them.
Regardless of your feelings about them, no one could argue the Warriors have done well on and off the pitch under Pollard, in contrast to DW offering Hullking Stan Rovers an “incentive” to be relegated in their place FFS.
After today’s announcement, don’t think DW will be in a position to help us (hope I’m wrong there…), beggars can’t be choosers
It hurts badly, and that’s without a scandalous free kick decision.
That ref was a disgrace. He should have changed into a Fulham shirt and removed all doubt
Sadly b) is irrelevant to us now if we don’t get the 12 points reduced/scrapped thanks to Barnsley winning at Brentford
Another good result for us tonight with Charlton only getting a draw at Birmingham.
By my reckoning, given our goal difference, that means we are guaranteed to stay up even with -12 pts if we win the last 2 games – Charlton couldn’t catch us and at least one of Hull & Luton can’t catch us on points.
Barnsley will have to win tomorrow at Leeds to be able to overtake us (sounds like an accumulator buster that one!!)We can do this…BELIEVE
I thought I’d pressed the wrong button and was watching Barcelona
What a great performance and result…bring on Charlton.
We can do this and tell the EFL to stick their 12 points where Choi sticks his chopsticks.
BELIEVE
The situation stinks and I felt physically sick when I read the news this afternoon, especially gutting after the way the lads have performed since the restart.
We have 4 very winnable games in the last six. All of us, no exceptions, must get behind the boys more than ever. The future of the club is quite literally at stake. Get the 12 points back on the pitch and tell the EFL where to stick their deduction.
We are Wigan…never give up, give in or surrender
Last year we won 13 and had 52 points All season, with 7 to play this term we are on 47 with 12 wins The league feels a bit tighter this time but it is looking like we will beat last seasons points and wins. Looks like progression and at the moment it feels like progress which is a very different feeling than a few months ago when a lot (including myself) were calling for Cook to go. I hope my piece of humble pie at the end of the season is enormous and tasty.
After we beat Huddersfield I thought 50 points would do us, now we probably need 52-53 to be safe.
Last season Ipswich and Bolton were cast adrift and Rotherham collapsed at the end; this season 22nd place is up for grabs
I think we will finish 14th
Excellent performance and result; continued where we left off.
2 more wins ie 50 points should be enough…up the Tics
Always look on the bright side of life.Absolutely Gooley.
We have a distinct advantage over most of our opponents as we have a lot of experience in playing in front of rows of empty seats :lol:
Don’t think anyone will have to make a decision on buying a season ticket as surely the club won’t put them on sale until they know whether we can actually be admitted?
Saying that, is it any different from airlines/tour operators selling travel now for trips in July/August?
I agree too; don’t expect or want a refund.
Only thing I would hope for would be if the remaining games are played, ST holders can be given free access to the home games on Latics TV.
In the olden days it was Division 1, Division 2 then Division 3 North/Division 3 South so JT’s idea really is going back to basics!
Football is just not important in comparison to what is going on at the moment.
The season should be ended now as if everyone had played all their matches.
Liverpool would be Champions, Villa would go down, we would stay up, Bolton and Chorley would go down and Barrow would regain their league status after 50 odd years.
It won’t suit everyone and there will be a few unhappy clubs, but at the end of the day what is more important, the lives of many, many people or a few quid in compensation for having to play at a level next season that in reality you probably deserve anyway.
Come on FA, PL and EFL come to your senses and just make the decision now so we can all plan for next season, unless of course we are still in lockdown come August then fuck knows what we’ll do.
You cannot relegate Villa when they have a game in hand.
How about we end it now with no relegation Top two from every division come up and next season 5 go down instead of 3 to rebalance numbers. Scrap league cup to allow for extra games. Whatever happens next season is going to badly affected in some form.[/quote]
I’m with Nuneaton on this.
End the season now, in the PL, award the title and Euro places as the table is now.
No relegation. The other divisions, promote the teams currently in a promotion place, no relegation.
22 team PL next season with either 5 down/3 up or 4 down/2 up.Means everyone can focus on next season, hopefully starting sometime in August or September.
No easy answer is there? I reckon this option is as fair as it can be.
If they try to finish this season in August or whenever, what about players out of contract in June or some teams seen to have an unfair advantage as they’ve players back from injury who wouldn’t have been back in March (eg Kane)
