An entertaining game with some good football and awful clangers in equal measure from both teams.
Easily the two worst clubs on show today and we are off to league 1 but a win is a win and life feels a bit better tonight
Up the ticsFrom what I saw of Rotherham last Saturday in just the highlights footage I’m fully expecting them to drive the final relegation nail in on Saturday.
Let’s be honest the team is just not good Enough for this division which is so frustrating when you look at what Barnsley and Burton have done.
I keep reading deluded posts saying we can still do it but i gave up the ghost after the Bristol city game and with no strikers ( ??????) it’s all over end of .
The rot set in last summer with poor planning and investment and then the sale of wildschut and again no proper investment has left is in a real
Mess that quite frankly will continue next season if a major change in the club isn’t made .
To say it’s a disgrace isn’t doing it justice but they need to make these changes NOW especially with the season tickets sales about to start.
3 relegations in 5 years when only one in the previous 35 suggests the club has a major problem that lies beyond the players and manager and a huge change is needed throughout the club.A good effort and the conditions and pitch didn’t help and some good performances and at last a decent attacking effort.
That said it all boils down to the same thing and that is we just are not good enough to play at this standard of football and will be most certainly relegated in about three weeks time.
All the faults were evident yesterday with the main one being our inability to score goals against better opposition defences and goalkeepers.
Bogles chance in the first half epitomised that after he had done all the hard work by rounding the keeper he couldn’t do the easy bit by just sliding he ball in and that is down to quality.im afraid because he can’t cut it at this level at the moment .
Relegation is unfortunate but I haven’t enjoyed this season one jot and at least we might see some decent football next year at a level that most of these players will be able to play at.Didn’t score a goal at home all of February ( a record ?) so why are they suddenly going to bash two in?
Without a significant sea change in the attitude of our manager towards attacking football then at best it will finish goalless again at worst I can see those two strikers having a field day.
0-0
0-2 if it goes wrongIf he at last goes for it (some hopes ) then maybe a fantastic 2-0 win for tics
Not getting carried awayto be honest f@@k the floating part timers.
Usually people who were there every week once we hit the premier with replica tops on and the biggest mouths.
They had a chance last summer to purchase 23 games for just over the price of 7 but didn’t and the club has rightfully decided to charge the floaters a high price.
Don’t give me not everybody can afford £179 blah blah blah but the type of people who float are the types who just come down after a recent victory or for a big cup tie.
I appreciate that there is a small element who
Probably couldn’t afford it but given the amount of jags, Mercs and beemers I see around Wigan now I’m sure it isn’t money.
The club has bent over backwards to look after the loyal Wigan supporters and I have absolutely no beef with the £27 price I only wince at their outright stupidity when I see the plebs queuing for them before the game
Our 10k will
Make plenty of noise and given the arrogance and assumptions coming from Nobend I have a funny feeling they may have a little shock coming.Ps I’d put a game against Nobend on par with Bolton although I don’t think there is a much vitriol.
Running on the pitch to congratulate mick Quinn on his debut goal against I think Halifax .
Dreadful first half performance and laurel
And hardy defending in the second half however a point is better than I expected and bogles performance and set piece goals gives some hope for the coming weeks.
A tough month ahead but a point gained in my view.He doesn’t check the table allegedly
He might care to tonight because we are deep in the brown stuff and wins are needed NOW .
Crucial month this and doesn’t look good at the moment .
Message to mr Joyce
That round bag of wind is meant to go in that net thing to do well at football11 years also since I went to old Trafford towers and given the amount of times I had to show my pass sorry ticket to various stewards just to
Move around the effing place a theme park is what it has become.
To get to the seat I was searched and had to show the ticket four times to
Various jobsworths.
i think this is the future of top flight football now and the emotion and enjoyment of the game at tht level is being sucked away by corporate greed.
A game that exists without trophies isn’t far away given the lack of respect shown by some clubs at te weekend to the oldest domestic cup competion.
Joke city and west humdrum get off at reaching 40
Points these days for another season Of mid table drudgery.
Dave whelan and his grandson hold up the old fashioned values of yesteryear like looking after the supporters and for that we should be proud
Are we worse off now we are away from this crap???
Definitely notp
Seems to have awakened the old spirit with a few tweaks and yesterday’s performance was by far the best at the DW this season.
I think it is bye bye bottom three and some teams might be surprised at the teams turnaround from now on.Shades of the 2014-15 season however this team is poorer than that in my opinion.
A total lack of ambition will send this club into oblivion if some serious team investment is not made in the new year.
The rot set in in 2009 when we went from an established premier league outfit in the top ten to a club fighting relegation each season.
Yes we won a major trophy in that time but the club has most certainly been in decline since then regardless of that
Last night was like watching schoolboys play their teachers and I realised then that regardless of manager ( ridiculous decision sacking caldwelll btw )we have had it unless changes in playing personnel are made in January and the war chest brought out !.Reminded me of the performance at Arsenal in 2012 when we snatched a 2-1 shock victory.
Huddersfield are a very impressive team and I wouldn’t be surprised to see them in the play off mix so last nights win was superb.
Bad for the nerves yes but it proves this group has character and desire for the fight that
Lies ahead.
interesting times ahead for surethe man is Wigan athletic through and through and there is no doubt which club holds the whip hand with the ground .
That said his grandson needs to stabilise the club in the championship because relegation could undo all of this but the good thing is that the family is staying with latics for many years to come is this monument is anything to go by.
There needs to be a sort out in January and some significant pruning of the squad needs to be done. I am sure we will survive this season.
Well done DWthe result may well be a blessing in disguise and he really starts today to get things moving.
Gut feeling is we will stay up just once he starts to organise things.
Don’t lose hope yetSo we have sacked a manager that had to clear out all the dead wood and start again on a low budget and in league 1 and who was being shouted at for the sack around this time last year.
he then turns it round wins the title in a league that is a graveyard for former premier league clubs and takes the club into a league with clubs spending 50 million on players without batting an eyelid.
He has the expected poor start and struggles to find a rhythm but this is precisely what he did last season so I like a few others thought he will turn it around at some point given his superb track record so far.
He has a narrow defeat at the weekend against a team in second position and one of the promotion favourites and all hell breaks loose on social with crys of sack him and the like.
He was superman a few weeks back but in this new world you have to win every game to be safe and it’s getting worse.
Good luck GC you gave us one of the most memorable seasons EVER watching the mighty tics and for that alone you deserved a bit more time and a bit of patience.
Very bad move in my opinion not that bothered who comes in anymore the game is fecked -
