And some are the same ones quiet content to keep polishing a turd.
You support (allegedly) Wigan athletic. What is it you want exactly from a club with a small fanbase & limited resources that is punching above its weight even in the championship?
I’ve found that the ones that were first to complain about overplaying and tippy tappy under Martinez were also the first to complain about the long ball/hoof ball tactics under Coyle/McKay and the defensive football under Joyce.And they are also the first to complain under the current manager.
In fact I’ve found that the same people are the first to complain no matter what.
Well said that man
I dont think we are a total big boot style of a side. Certainly against QPR we werent all big boot
That’s because we’re looking at gaining points and safety at home.
When we play away we play with a different mentality basically trying not to concede then long ball it upfield in hope.
Against Rotherham I’ve never seen so many players panic and hoof “Just get rid” in and around our box. Even the new Everton lad got in the act. I’m sure Everton didn’t teach him that.
Cooks style of football especially away, building an aging squad, all player assets gone, a youth system not utilised will drive some fans away.
If it’s all about survival and nothing else and Cook remains in charge then next season will be a barrel of laughs.
Gun ho and take a chance Latics has been replaced with belt and braces let’s not hey, boring as fook[/quote]The aim this season was all about survival anyway & to consolidate championship football next season.
We”re simply not good enough at this level but will stay up.
Sorry, run that one by me again.
3 teams worse than us this season. That’s how we will get away with it.[/quote]
Isn’t that how every team that avoids relegation “gets away with it”. If we’re not one of the bottom 3 teams we obviously are good enough to stay up.[/quote]
Exactly otter. You talk sense.
There’s a reason we are where we are in the league, we are simply not good enough at this level.I think we will have enough to stay up.
And that was our aim this season right from the very first minute of our very first game. Or, have people forgot this?
Apologies.I was just gutted we were selling Grigg.
I know I wasnt the only one gutted.
Stay up this season and then reassess over the summer and plan for a better season next season.
Thanks
We all were (well most) gutted at selling grigg. Especially the time when it happened.
I hope we stay up too & build on next season.
Well done VAT on your return. Knew you wouldn’t be able to stay away. It’s quite addictive supporting latics.
Hope your lad gets well soon VAT. Shame you aren’t going again all because of the selling of 1 player. Which TBF is part & parcel of football.
On the subject of grigg, his transfer kind of reminds me of the time when keegan sold Cole to man utd. And Keegan was met by a horde of berated geordies.
Rubbish. Too many 30+, 6ft players and too much route one. Cook out his depth. Be 5 0 if Griggs played.
Perhaps the irony is lost when you call other posters trolls! ;)[/quote]
Possibly filly. Amazing how things change though. Half the board weren’t goin on Thursday lol[/quote]
Worth asking the question.
Did those of you who said you weren’t going again actually go?[/quote]
Went today but I did comment I’ll see the season out my problem is work I’m a season ticket holder and that was my first game since West Brom at home in October so no I won’t be buying another season ticket and I blame IEC for selling Grigg.
I still think Grigg would score double figures in the Championship but we didn’t miss him today at all warming the bench.[/quote]Is there nobody you could give your season ticket to grumps? My sister has mine in my absence. I do understand your problem though. I have always said that if I can attend 10 – 12 home games a season, then I’m happy.
For the record, did VAT go?
Is he a left back?
Dad’s Army FC!I think he is yes. Still just the 2 lads up top though :ohmy:[/quote]
And cole
