Then don’t go fellas, if you don’t like it. Doesn’t do off us all to think the same.
And I have no intention of continually repeating my views on here for the benefit of the hard of reading.
Spoken like a man who knows feck all about really supporting a football team. If it was that easy changing my team I’d be sat in the Etihad singing Blue Moon but Wigan are my team and will be till i die.[/quote]
And in your golden 35 years you have obviously mastered showing your club a bit of support av’nt you ya rent boy :evil:
Check Fil out getting in some practice to one of his and his pals favourite’s :lol:
I had a great idea once but nobody took me up on it and it was really original and definitely would have gotten the media’s attention !
It was pre vuvuzala as well ! It was kazoos ! If we had loads of kazoos doing the great escape theme tune it would sound awesome !! The vuvzala sort of blew my idea out of the water because of its annoying tone ! I still think it would be novel as you couldn’t really play a tune on a vuvuzala !!I’ve got a ukulele…. perhaps we could combine and do a cover of you are my sunshine? B)
An inside mole has made me aware that young Tim Chow who plays for the reserves recently turned 18 and will be signing a pro contract with the club this saturday at half time. Only if the result is going good though apparantly. Hes been putting in some decent performances for the reserves. As any1 who watches them will know. I think there trying to plug that hes a born and bread Wigan lad but hes actually from St Helens.It’s close enough :cheer:
Its because Griff they have no ideas to answer (just like Jewell and Bruce) the dilemma that as a club we are punching far above our weight…
However Roberto Martinez has clearly sat down and put in place the sort of long term plans that can allow us to compete with teams that make more revenue in pie sales than we do in gate receipts.
Currently we have had two of our wingers from the development squad go out and make a very good impression in the Championship…
It wasnt too long ago one of our hottest prospects on the lips of Wigan fans was none other than Magno Viera who although is doing very well at Fleetwood Town I hear …. is a good representation of how far we have come when you compare him to the likes of Dicko and Cruyff’s grandson ( please refer to youtube video for indication of his ability )
Spain and Barcelona are a mile away in standard from England and any other English club and probably will be for the forseeable future.
How did they acheive it?
Through long term planning from grass root level.
Exactly what Martinez is trying to do.
Of course Wiganers are generally thought of to be 20 years behind the rest of the world so this creates a bit of a pickle for the likes of Hindley who just cant understand why we cant just lob the pigskin into the box and hope for the best….
Fair enough we’ve took a few punches along the way but we are by no means out for the count!
And to call Martinez a failure when he has kept the club for last 2 seasons without a striker who cannot hit the fucking back of the net like all strikers should do is insane and surely only strengthens the fact that tactically we are very strong.
As said previously in another thread if Martinez had the money that Bruce was spending on an average season we could easily afford Defoe or a simlilar striker of his quality…
Perhaps Whelan should get his hands in his pockets eh the tight ol’ sod ?
If I was him and read some of the shite on here I’d think bollox to ya ill leave ya where I found ya you ungreatful bar stuords.
My suspicion is 99% of the so called “darksiders” would do a dissapearing act if we started plummeting through the leagues so they can pick a new team to bitch and moan about….
rant over.
I’ve watched this team for 35 years so your high and mighty opinion that I’m not a proper supporter doesn’t really stand up. And I’m sorry but if you honestly believe that Bob is laying the foundations for a footballing dynasty :woohoo:
And you call me a retard.[/quote]
Dont flatter yourself I couldnt care less what you do.
35 years? well done!!!
So Have you always been such a miserable git? :kiss:
Think the players will prefer a lame duck than a duck that doesn’t even bother tu turn up at all.
The lads deserve a pick me up, what harm can it do?
They had inspiration yesterday as indeed the had at Bolton.
4 points from 6 and were staring premiership survival in the face. If that’s not worth fighting for, then you would have to ask what some of our fans do feal is worth fighting for.
Looking at the likes of Port Vale, we should be out celebrating any way.
I’ll be there and I’ll be proud to say I was.Why not Eh Babis?
Me and 2 others will see you down there an hour early pal[/quote]
If your down there an hour early you will have missed the players !! What’s this 4 points from 6 lark ? Is it not 1 point from 6 ? Get behind them from the kick off and create an atmosphere by all means but I’m sorry cheering them into the ground will just mean you have to do it every home game and that wont last ! If we win it wont be because of that and if we lose it wont be because hardly anyone turned up either ! I do admire your ambition though ! :)[/quote]
I dont live miles away but obviously have to get a train in to Wigan and then get down to the ground so I have never been early enough to know when the players arrive?
If im too late then the thought was there and a couple of pre game scoops will more than make up for it (in my mind) :)

Is it any wonder a wedge has been driven between certain fans with idiotic comments like that !!
This comment refers to all 3 posts !!It’s people like you hijacking any thread that isnt some imbred muppet boo hooing his club arent sh***ing money on players and returning unrealistic results that is driving a wedge between people on this board!

Realists??? that Bob is a great manager, he’s doing the best with what he has???
Don’t talk shite, we have a squad that IMO would stop up but our problem is our manager :evil:[/quote]
Go on then bright spark enlighten me…..
What manager would you replace Roberto with?
What player/players would start scoring under said manager?[/quote]
Well not having any inside football knowledge I’ve no idea and honestly neither have any of you who would take the job, but if you don’t ask???
And I’m sure with a different formation we could eek out a few more goals but I guess we will never know because Bob only has one way to play.But why worry it works great :ohmy:[/quote]
And so the penny drops just as it did for wolves ….
So an alternative formation is the difference between strikers taking their chances and not taking their chances? Who’s talking shite now hinders?[/quote]
Ok Salford I’ll spell it out for you as your obviously struggling. Just say for instance we played with 2 strikers the law of averages say’s your doubling your chance of a goal, right??? Now I’m not saying a change in system would turn us into world beaters but we may just improve and lets be honest it can’t work worse than the current one. Bob has been trying this system for 3 seasons now and we are still no closer to getting it right. And before you pap on about financial constraints Swansea have spent far less than us and play this system far better.[/quote]
You’re right I am struggling but then again I dont speak retard..
So we play 2 strikers chances get doubled and Di Santo, Sammon and Rodallega magically start hitting the back of the net?
Roberto If you are reading this please play 0-0-10 against West Brom.
Forget the midfield battle and all this defensive milarky we can increase our goal scoring chances ten fold.
Well done hinders well done…………..
So who did you used to support? Just asking like!
I wasn’t around pre Whelan so I am by no means old school..
However I appreciate what we have got and what Roberto has given to me as a fan.
although I would never admit it I thought we were down last season and for all the anxiousness that piled within me come end of the season it all was worth it! Also sending the we took 20,000 to Wigan today don’t deserve to go down jelly eating world cup winning bar stuords down along the way is the stuff my wet dreams are made of.
If your so called groundhog day is that then bring it on !
Living the dream…. Enjoy it while you can the 5 min on match of the day, the patronising journalists and the multi million flops because one day you might just miss it.
Hey Salford why don’t you have an avatar pic of one of the current players ? Just asking like ! So you think RM has been successful because we have survived by the skin of our teeth and set new all time lows in his relatively short tenure !I have actually tried to change my avatar recently albeit to a picture of Steve Bruce with the elephant mans head pasted on but get an error ….
But to answer your question because he is my favourite player….
New all time lows?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? :blink: :blink: :blink:
How long have you been supporting Wigan Fil?
Isn’t it so simple ? Robbie has had nearly 3 seasons to eek out a few wins and has failed miserably.What makes people believe we will roll W Brom over on Saturday ?We’ve not been able to roll anyone over including the lower league F.A cup fodder we’ve played.I want us to win Sat and then compound the critics again but I cant see it.The damning stat still is 104 games and stiil won 2 on trot once …Failure with huge F .I rest my case …..Until next time maybe .It is so simple as you put it…
3rd season and still in the premiership is that not sucess or do you suffer from football alzheimers?

Until Gomez roles his sleaves up and puts in a shift which is never he would never play for me. He does keep posession but does feck all with it square or backwards passing is not what we need, IMO we looked far better when he went off.
Nothing like a sweeping generalistion, is there?
For example, it takes a certain type of talent to square or back pass a ball into the opposition net four times a season.
Still, if it’s a witch hunt you want.[/quote]
The guy takes penalties!!! I can’t believe you through that back at me, desperation me thinks ;)[/quote]
He does. And he has scored two of them. Leaving just two goals scored via backwards/square passing. So I was half-right and can back it up with facts, which you can’t.
Listen, I know Jordi Gomez is not good enough for a decent Premier League team but as Martinez wants someome to specifcially play that role, he is as good as, if not better than, anyone else in the squad at doing it.[/quote]
Griff I’m sorry but with the quality of team we have we cannot carry anyone and when we don’t have the ball Gomez contributes feck all.[/quote]
Thought we had a team capable of staying up in your opinion? Surely a team capable of competing in the best league in the world doesn’t need its forwards defending ???
