I was so irritated I called my Dad and was bitching and moaning at him then screaming down the phone before hanging up without saying goodbye. He didn't mind.

Drama queens.

I gave a little wry smile.

I've always said that a last minute equaliser is more demoralising to the opposition than a last minute winner.

There's more of an emotional swing when you lose 3 points rather than losing 1.

For the Pie Eaters to equalise right at the death and then think they'd won in injury time only to come away with the draw probably had them crying in their beer all night.

Good.
I'm not asking you to 'think outside the box' I just wish you'd have a rummage around in it once in a while.

Does anyone else think, with the right leadership, we've got a decent team?

Every game though, we seem to play with 10 men as there's always someone who's being played woefully out of position, in this case Trotter.
What a hero, What a man...... Ooooh, what a bad foul...

I cannot see why defenders dive in on those situations! If he'd stayed on his feet McManaman wasn't getting any more than a corner.
I thought it was because Baptiste had given the ball away in midfield so his head was still spinning, but then he's got plenty form for giving away penalties anyway!

He went across him with his right leg, there was only ever going to be one outcome. Baptiste deserves an absolute fecking for it.

Apologies for being a (bit!!!) late catching up with this thread!

I thought that the game swung in Wigan's favour when Lee and Hall swapped wings. I couldn't believe that it happened in the first place as both seemed to have the beating of their men. But even more surprising was that they weren't swapped back as they both suddenly looked useless playing on their (wrong?) sides. This was left to continue until Hall was taken off. Can the management not be strong enough to realise they have made a mistake moving players and put them back where they were previously???

Also, from where I was sat, it was clear that the assistant ref was telling the ref (who also had shocking moments) that Trotter was moving wide of the goal when he was brought down. Although this was never the case in a month of Sundays. Admittedly, he was not central to goal when he was fouled but was heading directly to goal with AAH in front readying himself for a shot. If that is not a clear goalscoring opportunity then I am Dutch!

Beat you for lateness!

I thought Hall had a slow start but got better the longer he was on the pitch. Needs a chicken sandwich and few sessions down the gym.

Baptiste was awful when he came on but I'm feeling kinda lenient considering he was out of position and just back from injury.

Made me smile that every time I see someone get featured in a programme they're nowhere to be seen, Mark Davies this time.

Hadn't seen Juke, Trotter or Hutton before. Hoping we can get similar next year once some of the Prem players have gone.
The players you fail to sign never lose you any money.

I've corrected it for you.

Baptiste had been suspended for a very similar stupid tackle.

In a bit of a reflective mood .... This team was good enough to make the playoffs this year, just took too long to get the lads on song. I just don't think we are that far from having a top side for this league. Rumors rampant that Ream is wanted by a few prem sides, only got to watch a few of our matches this year between work and limited matches on the box over here so I realize I am basing my thoughts on 4 matches on the box and this board, I am interested in others opinions.
