    Bad luck, Wigan. A disappointing end to a long season.

    And we’ll be going to Barnsley once again.

    In the Cup? ;)

    Londoners think life ends at Watford…. :S

    Proof indeed…. :whistle:

    in reply to: Monday #130858

    Got to play Callum presuming he’s fit.

    By far our most attacking threat…and likely to win us a free kick in a dangerous area or another penalty :cheer:

    You’re not holding back your opinions tonight G…

    Have you been on the Communion wine again? :lol:

    in reply to: Fortune #130820

    Costa Fortune indeed…on and off the pitch. He wouldn’t score in a knocking shop :blink:

    The lack of a striker who can actually score goals is the reason we are not already back in the Premier League.

    We outclassed QPR tonight, just couldn’t score. How many times have we said that? :huh:

    Still confident for Monday though. QPR will have to push forward more and we can pick them off.

    For friday in the east stand and south stand and also from the ticket offices up to kick off

    Good, we need to boost trade :)

    Just had another look at the online ticket plan thingy. South stand looks almost empty sadly. East & West plenty sold in the central sections but virtually empty at the sides. ES2 quite a few seats available as well.

    The seat next to me in WS4 is available…if anyone’s that desperate for a seat :lol:

    in reply to: Playoff semifinal tickets #130690
    Just been on the online ticket office and it looks like almost every block is under 25% full. Hope sales pick up over the next couple of days, all ive seen over the last few days is season ticket holders moaning about having to pay. I dont get it, we had to pay for play offs in 2000 and 2001, we pay for cup games, i think £20 for a semi final is a bargain

    Disappointing news, given that the ST deadline was Monday to claim own seat.

    Disappointing yes, a surprise no. That’s why some of us hoped ST holders would get in free :unsure:

    With our main season over I’ve no problem with what Uwe did yesterday.
    Yesterday’s result was irrelevant to Latics but the next 2 (hopefully 3) games are the most vital of our season. Should he have played his first choice side (whatever that may be!!) & risked having some of those 11 unavailable for the play offs through injury or suspension?
    Personally I couldn’t care less about any respect or otherwise to any other club. What matters to me is Latics & that’s what Uwe is paid for too
    Burnley are in a completely different situation so it isn’t even comparable

    The season starts again on Thursday and Friday for the 4 clubs involved.

    Uwe will play his best 11 (not sure which 11 that is tbh :unsure: ) on Friday and may need to do so again on Monday. They’ve plenty of time to rest before the final.

    I’ve a sneaky feeling Brighton might do one on Derby. It frequently happens in the play offs when the 6th place team sneaks in at the last minute…literally this time!

    Don’t mind at all playing at home first against QPR. First opportunity to get the runs on the board and bat Harry out of the tie :woohoo:

    in reply to: congratulations jordi…. #130625
    Fantastic. Totaly deserved. Class in midfield and scores more goals than our shite so called strikers.
    Well done Jordi.

    Couldn’t agree more, thoroughly deserved.

    Back in the Prem this time around I think Jordi will play with a lot more confidence. The margins at the top level especially are small between success and failure.

    As the chap next to me often says, how would you perform at work if you had people shouting at you that you are sh!te every 5 minutes? :ohmy:

    in reply to: Best ever goal #130590

    Or what about Charlie’s goal against Arsenal in 2010 to win 3-2 after being 2-0 down with 11 min to go?

    “It’s unstoppable” as Alan Smith said.

    Charlie slept very well that night…Wenger turned into a windmill and half the west Stand got their best exercise in years copying him :lol:

    in reply to: Best ever goal #130588
    There are so many fantastic memories. Who scored it and when?

    If we stick to the Premier League and this season…to avoid a memory trip back to Goole in 1971 :dry:

    4th…Ryan Taylor (free kick) V Newcastle Boxing day (2006 or 7?)
    3rd…Fig from half way line at Stoke
    2nd…Zaki at Liverpool

    1st…Brilliant bullet header from a corner. Simply flew into the net. Forgotten who scored it or against whom ( ;) ). Think he looked a bit like Prince Harry if that’s any help.

    So hard to pick though isn’t it. So many to choose from :lol:

    in reply to: Playoff semifinal tickets #130561

    Just read this article elsewhere, which seems to explain the position.

    http://www.lep.co.uk/sport/national-football/no-cheap-tickets-for-pne-play-off-matches-1-6587769

    We want as many of our people there as possible next week, albeit a full house might be expecting too much.

    We will be 2 games away from the “richest game in club football” after all B)

    in reply to: Playoff semifinal tickets #130540
    I did think they might have given free admission to ST holders (yes, I know they are a business, and that they gave us the European games for free, but still…..) The money surely is not an issue. Maybe a bit of incentive for a big crowd backing the team would have not gone amiss.

    What we need is someone who represents Supporters issues who could take this up with the club ;)

    Totally agree with you GL…I very nearly posted along those lines on Tuesday night ie let ST holders in free.

    It would have been a nice gesture, given a lot of us have followed the club to Wembley twice again this season and some abroad as well.

    Surely it would have saved the club a lot of hassle selling tickets to ST holders at pretty short notice as well.

    It is even more disappointing that we don’t get a discount even….if they must charge us it could have been £10-£15 with £20 to non-ST’s.

    I’ll be there on Thurs/Friday as I presume most on here will, but if the FA Cup attendances are anything to go by, a lot won’t go, especially as it’s on TV.

    Feel a bit let down tonight to be honest. :( :(

    in reply to: Nick Powell: Hero to Zero #130518

    Spot on Lowey !
    These Johnny big Bollocks loan players are not really fighting for anything, since I can’t imagine them seeing their future at the Latics; even if we make the Premiership. Probably already on a beach in Marbella, in their head.

    Are you suggesting that we shouldn’t sign any players on loan? That might put us at an even greater disadvantage.

    Powell was a success when he arrived. Indeed, he offered a rare ray of hope during Coyle’s miserable reign. What has changed?[/quote]

    Not suggesting we don’t use loans; but if we do they’ve got to “die for the cause”. I was basically intimating that some of them with egos / attitude don’t really give a toss whether the Latics win or not. So based on that criteria who is the best and worst loan players that have ever played for us ?[/quote]

    Zaki could be in the running for both categories :lol:

    Best goal by a loan player…in front of the Kop at Liverpool.

    Worst attitude to whether he actually turned up at all. What was it Bruce said…”the worst player I’ve ever worked with” or something similar :ohmy:

    in reply to: Play Off Final #130487

    There are international friendlies the following Friday eg England V Peru.

    So 2 extra days does make a difference to some!

    Let’s get the semi finals dealt with before we start making too many plans for the final :ohmy:
