Yes, I think Evatt made his decision on Gordon some time ago.

Re: High Noon in Wigan. Away at the Piedrome.,Sat,-2-04-22. 12-30 kick-off.

Just seen what McLeans stuck up. Actually shows the opposite IMO - we’ve got to him today. Still, he’ll now get the attention he craves from the muppets, and another opportunity to play victim. Works dunnit. This is a lad who used to tell people he was the most talented winger in the country and is...

Just got in to find we've equalised. How have we been generally?

First half very poor; second half the better team, if not necessarily creating gilt-edged opportunities.

We've scored more late goals than any other club this season. There's a sense we could score another here.

A superb header. A great delivery in from Aimson too. I never doubted him. :D

Re: High Noon in Wigan. Away at the Piedrome.,Sat,-2-04-22. 12-30 kick-off.

What a boring game this has ended up. For a local derby its really falling flat this second half. I think that's to our advantage, to be fair. Don't think its to anyones advantage. Think its just nullified the game. Compare the first twenty minutes to now. In both fixtures they started fast and we ...

Re: High Noon in Wigan. Away at the Piedrome.,Sat,-2-04-22. 12-30 kick-off.

We should be thanking our lucky stars we're only one goal down.

I'd bring Dempsey on for Kachunga, revert to a back four and play Sadlier and Dapo on the wing.

I can only hope it's not Sadlier at left-wing-back.

Is Dempsey unfit?

Re: High Noon in Wigan. Away at the Piedrome.,Sat,-2-04-22. 12-30 kick-off.

I suppose Jones at right-centre-back and Sadlier at right-wing-back could prove to be a successful combination but I think I'd also rather us start with a back four than go with the recent 3-5-2. Accommodating a back three currently means playing both our leading goalscorer and potentially our most ...

Their goalkeeper's save from Dapo's header is incredible.
URL didn’t work, Nicko - think I’ve fixed it above

So it didn't. Thanks for correcting.

Oh, and I think we should probably close the season out playing a 4-3-3. It seems to me to be the most natural fit for the players we have currently available to us.

Re: Back on track or up the Junction.? V Crewe away, Sat19th Mar. 3-0'clock.

There can't be many clubs that have scored more late goals than we have this season; it's a really good habit to have. And although it might now be meaningless it's also important that we keep winning as many matches as we can, just from a psychological standpoint - winning mentality, etc. - so it's...
