Go on then I’ll reply even if the other 54 views won’t.
Do you prefer big stick or balsa?

A good old fashioned porcupine quill !
Bet you can’t buy them nowadays.We all hoped that Bobby would prove to be to be the greatest Latics LegendAnd isn’t he? Fans are saying that playing in the Europa League is the greatest achievement of Wigan Athletic. We wouldn’t be playing Maribor tomorrow if it wasn’t for Roberto.[/quote]
Hold that thought and then counter it with: he is only one of two, out of our long list of Managers, who guided us to our second only relegation in our league history. It was clever though, how he bought himself more time by declaring he would need 3 or 4 transfer windows before it could be regarded as his team and he could achieve anything. He’s got more spin than a politician.
And with regards to, “we wouldn’t be in the Europa League”: there was a small contribution by the players who took part in our cup conquest; it wasn’t a one man show !
Who started this thread? Not the Bobby lovers!Keep up Barnsley: I gave Bobby un-conditional support ( that’s what fans should do, Eh ? ). Bottom line is that he sadly let us down in his timing to leave the club and it’s about time you put your Bobby “Rose Tinted” spectacles away and realised that. It’s no different to when Brucie left for Sunderland; apart from the fact that Bobby professed to actually love the club and to Brucie it was just another job. We all hoped that Bobby would prove to be to be the greatest Latics Legend ( we don’t really care anymore); and now that crown is up for grabs again.
By crikey, he’s done it – Top Four Bob!Have the Leyland lot nothing to say tonight? Not even a grudging Well done, Bob!
Come on, Owen. You can join him as Top Six Coyle.
I seem to remember us reaching the dizzy heights of 2nd spot, under the leadership of RM, and everyone thinking we have found the Messiah ! Didn’t last long ! Anyway as RM used to say, nothing is won until May. So stop creaming yourself !
That’ll be his agent trying to subliminally plant the idea in Owen’s head. Crafty bastards, the lot of them !
Maloney was In the Players Lounge.
Don’t think he would have been there if his Teddy had been launched.Horc also reported that Grant Holt was holding a pint !
But it turned out to be someone else’s.
Just shows that you should not jump to conclusions about what you see or hear.Let’s take some positives from today, Bobby esque style,
If we took three points with a less than convincing performance, what will be capable of when we play good !!!
Felt good to me, walking off the ground with three points in the bag. My beer even tasted better tonight,
Thought Shotton had a really good home debut.
I think Bobby will be disappointed though, because two of their goals were from direct free kicks and they don’t count as proper goals ! Well that was what he said about Maloney’s goal at Norwich last season when his interviewee was raving about it in the post match chat !
I agree that it’s a great point, mainly because we were lucky not to lose by the skin of our teeth, giving the ball away like school kids & last ditch lucky defending was what I saw, 1 meaningful attempt at goal in the second half, I don’t want to slag the performance off but each game leaves me with more concerns although it’s difficult to say how good or bad Zulte are .
Nail on the head ! Fans being whipped up into a European frenzy when the evidence of very sloppy play was there for all to see again ! Concerned? You should be ! :S[/quote]
Ffs. We shouldnt expect anything in Europe. Anything was a bonus. Entertaining game and we could have won it late on if we had a bit of luck in front of goal.
Take a reality check. Little wigan rubbing shoulders in europe… lool how far we have come[/quote]
For me the game was always secondary to this momentous “Latics” occasion of our first ever competitive game in Europe. You had to be there to savour 2 fantastic days in our history, Worth every penny ( or Euro ) that was spent ! Those memories will last a long time ! Thanks Little Wigan !!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, we will be witnessing another Milestone in our history ! We must be the most successful “small club” in recent footballing history, without any doubt !!!!!!!
See you all there !!!!!!Do you think that OC will give him more games than the last Man Utd Loanee got at Wigan in a full season ? Note: I was very careful not to mention a certain “past employee” in the process; so that his groupees have no need to leap to his defense,
I see you were very careful to litter your post with spelling mistakes, though[/quote]
Mmmm, everybody’s favourite SMART ARSE, aren’t we just.
