Lies, damned lies and now the damned tics. Wigan (H) Saturday 12.30pm

Think we could get 3 and the damage is still done. That 1st half is just Ian Evatt all over.
Yeah, we got the worst case scenario with that first half.

Players playing as if they want the manager out.


McAtee should be taking this free kick. He's been decent for the most part this match.


The decision to start Osei-Tutu over JDC looks to be a bad one. Tutu looks a game changer when we're attacking. That first half just had nowhere near enough of that.

The chances of us getting a result at Wycombe with a back three of Jones, Forrester and probably JDC seem minimal.

Has everyone got their Ian Evatt excuse bingo card ready?


Can see it now, we're progressing as a team, this time it was only a 2-0 defeat.

He has.
But it’s the coaching. He’s not suddenly become a bad player. All this Evatt not bothering to take training, they clearly aren’t pushing themselves or being pushed. Crying out for a change in management team. Sort it out Sharon.

Needed subbing off this match. He's been awful today. Far and away the worst of the bunch.

Nearly a 3rd chance for them due to Mr Johnston.

I think Evatt knows this is it, he looks dejected on the half way line.

Could probably do with conceding a few more to get Evatt out. Clearly Evatt in isn't helping us out in these sort of matches.

This should be enough to see Evatt gone. They've had months to find a suitable replacement.

It's just not worth the effort with these games as we all know deep down that it's always coming.

10 nil now against these inbred pricks.

Wigan have the best defensive record in the league and you can see why. They're organised and putting in a shift. They've not got great quality in their squad but effort and organisation goes a long way, just ask Parkinson.

Every corner we take santos actively runs away from the ball. Never attacks it. He’s an absolute fanny.

Makes you wonder why they're languishing down the bottom of the table.

Really hate these 12.30pm kick offs too.

The lack of supporters in the stands makes a bigger impact than any boos at full time.

They deserve every boo coming their way today.

Not only have we underperformed and not put in the effort required, but even when we were actively going for it, Evatt's managerial master stroke of disruption via subs worked a treat for Wigan.

We've tried sideways and backwards, time to try leaving the club.

I really don't think they appreciate what these sorts of results mean.

That's the disconnect from the fans. Saying it and understanding are completely different. Get them in the pubs tonight and the schools on Monday.

Absolute shower of shite.
