A red isn’t mandatory no but the players Lostock refers to were not even cautioned.
The Bolton player, fair enough as Grigg was going away from goal but Rodwell should have been, and I would imagine would have been had he not already been on a yellow.
The ref yesterday was awful and bought into all the ‘big club’ BS from Frank Lampard’s Derby County.
Was ‘chatting’ to a DCFC guy on the train on the way back. I mentioned to him the ‘dirty’ style of football they played, that it appeared to be an aim to torment Morsy so much they’d get him sent off and that penalty areas seem to be the slippiest part of the pitch.
He kinda went silent, and the conversation stopped.
Surely the penalty box incident was either penalty or a card for diving. So why nowt, other than a brown envelope in the refs shoe.
Lampard was never the cleanest nicest guy on the pitch, was he? (added to that he is a brexiter and Tory – but we shouldn’t hold that against him)!![/quote]
WTF does his beliefs about wanting to leave Europe have to do with the game on Saturday? You can take Your cognitive dissonance and ram it where the sun don’t shine You snowflake whopper ![/quote]
Welcome back Jeff!I reckon it’s a long time since the phrase cognitive dissonance appeared in a post on here!
I understand what cognitive dissonance is but what is a Snowflake Whopper Bob?Sounds like a really big choc ice
Defoe is on around £60k a week.
So as much as I’d love to see him play for Wigan, I really can’t see the club paying even a quarter of that to have him for half a season.
I thought the lad pushed his head into Morseys face. In today’s game you don’t have to “See u Jimmy” headbutt someone to get sent off.
The ref was totally out his depth letting certain fouls go unpunished.
All in all I thought a point would have been a fair result but Lampard seems to think they dominated and they were in full control…as ifFirst half they were in total control but we finally woke up in the second half and made a game of it but without a recognised striker on the field and 4 defensive midfielders plus an attacking midfielder up top we could have been as spirited as we have ever been but still wouldnt have scored. Credit to Cook though his ever increasing negative approach saved a cricket score and at least shored things up.[/quote]
Negative?? Which game were you watching?We were playing with 3 at the back for most of the 2nd half and when we had the ball, Morsy and Evans pushed up, along with Byrne and James – so it was virtually 5 up front!
I’ll be there but along with everyone i go with, not buying a thing at ground. no pies, no booze, in fact no food, drink or programme at all. if everyone did that it would be an even bigger own goal for them having to throw stuff away after a reduced number of latics fans spending no money.I doubt Bolton get any money from the food and drink anyway.
They more than likely make their money from the company who buy the rights to operates in the bars etc – who then recoup the money through their profits.
Our little group haven’t heard any rumours of a replacement for Cooky. Whats all that bullshit about?David Unsworth
A good mate of the Royles
Egg would you pay £35 to watch wigan v saints don’t matter which ground but would you and please be honest with your answer
No I probably wouldn’t unless it was a final in which case I have paid it before but as you all love to tell me and anyone else that will listen, rugby league is a nothing sport that nobody cares about.
We are talking about the 2nd tier of the biggest sport in the country.[/quote]
And the £161 tickets at Twickers were for the year’s biggest international match in the country’s second biggest sport ;)£35 is disgusting, but be thankful its your local game, with minimal travelling cost involved.Go to the game and support your team, but buy nothing from the ground. It will cost you £35 plus whatever it costs on the bus – a fiver tops? That’s still cheaper than a £25 ticket at WBA and £20 to get there and back on a coach.
It’s the principle of it that sticks in the throat, rather than the actual cost.
Like you say, for most, it will be a cheaper day out than for instance West Brom, but Bolton have clearly bumped their ticket price up way beyond what they usually charge just because Wigan are in town and they’re (usually) guaranteed a full away end.
That’s what’s got the goat of most of those we are refusing to go – and it’s going to backfire on Bolton.
So, McLean is a Republican, and his beliefs are that Northern Ireland should be part of a united Ireland, that is not part of a bigger union; a union that divides the population.
It’s not as if the mainland UK could ever be part of a bigger union that divides the opinions of the population like that is there????
You are quite welcome to an opinion. If that’s the case we should have cashed in on Powell and not given Roberts an extension. Roberts one game all season and rested FFS and that’s after what? around half a dozen games last season.
Again your sarcasm is not an opinion and definitely not a reason I feel they shouldn’t be left out.
Think I’ll go and clean my rose tinted glasses for future posts.As you’re cleaning your specs see if you have any skin-thickening cream while you’re at it.
Powell has always struggled with fitness and attitude. If he didn’t, he’d still be Man U.
No idea why Roberts was given a contract. Perhaps he’s good for morale – like Perkins was. Whatever the reason, he had good game at the weekend and I’m sure he would have started if he had the legs.
So who will play in defensive midfield with Morsy? Or is the Pillock available who was sent off at Preston?
Let’s wait and see. Could we sign that Power from Sunderland on an emergency loan?Is this the same ‘pillock’ you were praising after the game against Sheffield Wednesday? You are the most fickle supporter I have ever come across. Full of praise when Wigan win and sticking the book in when they lose. A bit like Wigan at the moment I suppose, very inconsistent.[/quote]
Oh back in the first game of the season. Lets recall, mmmmm no not me I wasn’t praising him. I have been pretty consistent about this signing. Would much rather have kept Power or Perkins who can play week in week out rather than this fella who struggles to play a handful of games a season for anyone he has ever played for.
Poor signing like McMannaman and Vaughan. Sunderland fans must be pissing there selves laughing offloading their wages to us.[/quote]
The same Power who struggled last time in the Championship, and who’s already been sent off twice for Sunderland and missed half their matches this season?And the same Perkins who looked knackered last season in League One and who’s only managed 4 appearances for Rochdale this season?
