Amazing stat that we have beaten all the top four away from home and not beaten any of the bottom four at their place. We can certainly out football the top sides but come unstuck against the sides who are in your face , lump it upfield and kick anything that moves. We need to develop a nasty streak next season. If we do I think we will be right up there. Roll on next season ! 🟦⬜️🟦⬜️🟦
To be fair I did not really rate Goode. Didn’t think he was any better than what we already have. Don’t know if he was carrying an injury but his lack of pace cost us a few times. Don’t know if it’s a fall out or Maloney just telling him he was not part of his plans.
That first goal was superb. Great move with a brilliant finish. Played very well yesterday dominated the game against the Divisions in form side.
You keep bleating on about these 5000 crowds but yet the crowds are remaining the same, if not, even increasing.
Others complain about fans staying at the end and applauding.
Most fans aren’t permanently negative about everything. I know it hasn’t been great of late but this is what happens to teams when they have nothing to play for at the end of a season. We are just not used to it as we are always fighting promotion or relegation.
And yes we are safe, there’s no squeaky bum time.
Well said Skeggy !
Wish I would have known that.Loved John Rogers and that Wembley ‘73 side. Must of had the thickest head of hair in non league football 😊
Most of us wanted a mid table not a lot to play for season and that is what we have had. The football is low risk possession based that is boring the pants off everyone ,let’s just get to the end of the season. For me , there is a hell of a lot going on behind the scenes that we are not privy to , we can only hope, as fans , that whatever is going on is going to benefit the team and will make us promotion contenders next season. None of us have got a Scooby Doo at this stage what Dansons intentions are other than to make us sustainable but surely he has to be ambitious and at least try to get to the next level , we live in hope ! Roll on next season !
Incidentally , an interested spectator at today’s game a certain Mr Steve Bruce , he clearly still has a lot of friends at the club.Some people had a moan when he took over in Jan 23 and said lets judge SM after his first season.
He’s now had a full season and nothings changed so time to go.
Who would you go for Bullitt ?
Remember that City away game sat in that temporary open away stand in the corner at Maine Road. We should have won that game but for the ‘hand of Goat ‘ goal that robbed us. Graham Jones rattled the crossbar in the closing stages but it wasn’t to be!
Ironically , in his first season back at Latics Jewell could only finish 10th in Division One. Dave Whelan decided to keep faith in his young Manager as he slowly re built the squad. He reaped the rewards the following season as Latics stormed the League with 100 points. Admittedly he was backed by Whelans millions but you have to give Managers time to build their squad. Let’s see how Maloney does next season .
I am no happy clapper but I am also not a doom and gloom merchant like a lot of people on this site seem to be finding fault with everything single thing the club and Maloney do. I am a supporter of Wigan Athletic and want the club to do well.At this moment in time I have seen nothing to suggest Maloney or Danson will not succeed .That may well change next season ,who knows . I for one am more than happy with what we have achieved this season, the target was always to avoid relegation , mission accomplished. Roll on next season !
Who actually said the target was to avoid relegation?
We start on minus eight points with a scratch team full of academy players , the only realistic target was to avoid relegation.

Couldn’t disagree with you any more. I think Maloney has done a fantastic job and I really hope he is here next season. With what he has had to work with he achieved a comfortable mid table finish I think he has worked wonders. We can all see the areas that need strengthening and I have complete trust in him that in those areas we will be stronger next season. We have two games in three days and he has had to rest players and bring players off to keep players fresh in what is not the biggest squad. It’s a frustrating watch at times but you can see what he is trying to do and at times yesterday I thought we knocked the ball around really well and some of the one touch passing and movement off the ball was excellent. We switched off at the start of the second half and that basically cost us the game , but it’s a young squad and they are learning all the time , they will only get better !
