Wigan Match Thread

[Cropwellfox]

Would take Thomas Okoli and Chaplin off and hopefully never seen again. Only issue is with Martin’s ****ing stupid 5 midfielders on the bench were going to have to see Burns so it doesn’t really help.

I can only imagine the bollocks Matt Elliott or Taggert are chatting over on North Korea tv

This Ref Dougherty is definitely a card happy little fucher, he’s making this game all about him Wigan player gets touched he falls down ref brandishes his yellow card !

Not a bad first half display a better team though with all the chances Wigan have had would be 1-3 up at least, Okoli needs to be replaced during the break he’s a Red card waiting to happen.

All we need now is a solid 2nd half performance and take these 3 points !

3 each and all the bookings have been pretty nailed on so far tbf. Could have maybe had a word with the first one for their winger on Alves but none were ones you'd really object to 

[WigstonWanderer]

Nice to be one up, but meh! Someone gonna get sent off I’d expect.

Is it a strong Arsenal squad? Or u18s?

Absolutely spot on

Snakes alive.....what a dreadful first half spectacle for a night as significant as that  for the  club.  I know we are winning but only because of their quality of their finishing.  So disappointing.......again

I'm in no way defending Martin, but would any manager do anything with this bunch of players? We just lack quality all round. We wouldn't last five minutes in the Championship.

He signed the players

3 kids and one of those is Dowman

 

Rest is all senior players

[ScotFox1]

In Spain for this one.. tried to get to New Zealand but, you know, any port in a storm!! 🤪

[Blueman1967]

Just get another, and keep 11 men on the pitch

Yes I know that. Nothing to do with Martin. He can go. Repeat question; would any manager get anything out of this bunch of poor players?

Exactly. Who plays fullback is Thomas gets injured ?

 

Moronic bench selections

 

What a Drip this guy is

 

7 places on the bench. Should be:

GK, CB, FB, CM, AM, Wideman & Striker

 

Its not hard

If you inflate the numbers by about 10,000, it’s bang on.

[Iwebema]

I know people will say "I'm not a fan" blah blah blah but the worst thing here is we are winning.

 

Its a bloody mess and a win will convince the board everything is fine, they simply do not understand football enough to see this is a mess, 12 games in its been a mess almost every week, I absolutely despair with this manager, this board, this club, not a football brain in the building. I need to just not let them impact me as much as they do 😅

Yes.

 

Many managers would get something from these players.

[WigstonWanderer]

Match clock was missing on Foxeshub for the first half. Saves me watching it continuously I suppose.

 

Edit: and it’s back!

If the FA are still investigating the link between heading a football and early on-set dementia, then I suggest they save themselves some money and give Matt Elliot a listen.

So is ours - BDCR is on £30k a week (no idea if that's true but anything over a fiver a week is too much).
