Everyone should take note that the Supporters Club travel is the best way to guarentee your coach travelling needs.
I am led to believe there has been a number of times people have been left without travel to a game after being let down by individual cowboy attempts to organise a coach.
I am not saying Rover and his stray mates are not trustworthy but if I was going on a coach I know I would book with the Supporters Club.
Are the supporters club going to “guarentee” that people with children and older parents are not going to be on a coach full of foul mouthed oiks drinking cheap vodka from pop bottles and smoking in the toilet, like SPOILED our trip to Cardiff in the league cup – and THAT is the reason my mate is running a trip himself – where everybody will be able to walk into his PEMBERTON BASED SHOP and pay and get a receipt for the trip.
As you do on a regular basis on here you ARE sticking your nose in when you have no need to, and ARE suggesting people with genuine and legitimate intentions are “untrustworthy”, otherwise you would keep your baseless opinions to yourself.
No doubt a ‘threatening’ PM will be winging its way to me as you seem to have a recent history of such deeds. Are you dave from skem by any chance?[/quote]

Sticking my nose in when I have no need to? Its a forum so if you dont want anyone to have an opinion on a subject dont post it on here.
Judging from your over the top defence you have probably just put more people off booking on your mates coach than I ever did by stating something that has been said a couple of times by the Supporters Club this season.
And as for threatening PM’s I dont know what you are talking about and neither do you for that matter.
I give Dave from Skem a bit of light hearted jip earlier in the season and recently sent Yosser Hughes a PM to say he is the worst football fan I have ever heard of followed by a love heart or something along those lines.
But dont worry you carry on taking the moral high ground as you are obviously coming across so well.
Nobody is sacrificing it.
The decision of what team to play lies with Roberto who has already said he wont sacrifice premier league survival.
The team agasint Everton should be more than good enough to beat either of these teams even if you take out Alcaraz’s top display and replace him with Golobart.
Premier League survival, Wigan Atheltic on an FA CUP & European football.
Its all realistically there for the taking so I dont get why you are putting a downer on it.
An FA Cup Quarter-final should be an exciting occasion, but if the replay follows the pattern of the first game, it won’t have very much to offer as a football spectacle. The managers may have difficulty in picking eleven fit players.The Independent didn’t have anything good to say about the first game. “Millwall had a few decent chances, but they were unable to beat Jake Kean in a match that was devoid of any real quality.
Referee Martin Atkinson dished out seven yellow cards in total with one of the worst offences committed by Shane Lowry, who sent David Bentley flying up in the air with a hefty tackle in the second half.
Scott Dann had his head bandaged after being caught by Rob Hulse’s elbow in the first half and he was clattered in the head again in the second by Millwall defender Danny Shittu during a feisty clash in south-east London.
Bradley Orr came on in the first half for Adam Henley after he suffered an injury, but he himself had to be replaced 12 minutes later with a suspected broken rib following a challenge with Shittu.”
Who would I prefer Wigan to play? Blackburn, of course. But there’s no need to go to Wembley for the game. I can’t see the attraction of travelling 200 miles to play in a half-empty stadium. Both sets of fans will be making the same long journey, incurring the same costs for petrol or booking seats on the same trains. The Reebok would be quite big enough to hold all the fans who regularly watch the teams.
So Wigan are one game away from the FA Cup Final. For the winners, the reward will be a game against one of the three biggest teams in the league – Manchester United, Manchester City or Chelsea. Win or lose, what state would Wigan be in for a crucial final league game against Aston Villa?
Wigan’s progress so far has been steady and sustainable. I can’t agree with the supporters who would willingly sacrifice their Premier League status for fleeting success in the FA Cup.

Wigan’s progress up the leagues under Dave Whelan has been steady and sustainable. The one thing fans of this era have not suffered is relegation.The Premier League is hard enough without the complications of European games. Why would you risk throwing Premier League status away for the questionable delight of travelling to play Hap Kiryat Shmona or Neftchi on a Thursday night?
Never mind dreaming of the FA Cup Final and European football next season, Wigan face ten cup finals this season to keep their Premier League status.
Dont see the problem myself.
We have shown this season that we can share the demands of 2 tournaments easily between a squad of 24 or so players.
This has now brought us to a point where this is unarguably the most competitive squad I have seen in my time and most probably in the history of the club due to players such as Mcmanaman and Golobart showing they really are ready to compete for places on a weekly basis.
I have no doubt that IF and it is still an IF we make Europe Roberto and Whelan will be more than aware of the extra demand on the current squad and coupled with our new attraction of not only playing in the best shop window in the history of the Premier League but also having the opportunity to go to a tournament housing some of the biggest clubs around the world I would think of it as more of an opporunity than a burden as you put it.
While we are all getting giddy over the prospectof Europe ( im just about starting to calm down ) I hope the players keep their feet on the ground and concentrate on the rest of the season a game at a time.
Our Premier League survival is pivitol to the continued good work being done at the club and while we can look at Blackburn and Milwall and say on paper we should win this we more than any know that isnt always the case and this game is deffo ours to lose.
Lets hope these recent good feelings transfer to some great support for the rest of the season because IMO they deserve it.
I am not too sure who I would rather play as both teams are having relatively poor seasons in the Championship.
I think probably Blackburn as they are on their 3rd manager of the season who IMO is much worse than the previous 3 they have sacked, when all that money came into Blackburn the fans became very obnoxious in the belief they were the next Man City only for it to blow up in their faces and thirdly because I would like an all north western semi finals goodpost
Yep, still a load of absolute wank.
Do one then.[/quote]
What an absolute Internet warrior, gobshite of a man you are, thread after thread of sanctimonious, repetitive, childish, bullying, boring rubbish, and you as one of the main contributors to the inane shite, do one I will, but because I want to, because it’s wank, not because some jumped up dickhead from Salford tells me to, what a prick you are.[/quote]
As apposed to someone so sad they spend their Sunday afternoon getting riled up on a message board that in their own words is “still a load of absolute wank.”
Give it a rest lad.
My understanding of it is:
If the winner of the FA cup is already qualified for Champions League the Europa spot goes to the runner up of the FA Cup i.e. the losers in the final.
If both finalists are qualified for Champions League it goes to the next ranking Premier League team.
So if we draw Blackburn/Milwall today we are within touching distance.
Are you saying that we aint got a prayer if we draw City, Chelsea or Utd ? Now that is being negative in my book ! ;)[/quote]
Not at all!
Realistically though if we get either manc team its going to be a bigger challenge than two (in all fairness) crap teams from the championship.
All will be known soon.

no amount of pm’s from SalfordI only sent ya one ya big puff stop making it sound like anyone cares.
Give your moral high ground fucking ego a rest for once will you. You ain’t clever enough to beat me down. You will get it straight back.You are as thick as a Gurkhas foreskin Yosser.
To be fair to you Phil you take a lot of stick on here but you gave credit when it was due at the end of last season and although some times you talk some utter… I mean have differing opinions to myself you’re not the worst on here by a far shout.
Brownbob takes the biscuit this year for me with his ” If we stay up it will be spite him not because of him”
I suppose if little Wigan finds itself in Europe <- Mental talk That will be spite him too and his team selections in the cup. Credit where credit is due he has given a handful of youngsters a chance to shine and they have got us this far and no he is not too stubborn to put more senior players in the further we have progressed. If someone had of offered me a trip to Wembley and avoiding relegation at the start of the season I would of snatched their hands off. To think I could be flying out to f*ck knows where next season to see my team play in the Europa league well its just crazy ( I know I am well ahead of myself but we are so close I can taste it).
