Just read iles report on the current situation at the club…. Good double to bet on is us to lose tomorrow and SS to be out of the club by the end of the season. 

Genuine question are there odds on managers to be sacked at end of season?  I know they do the next manager to go odds but surely there isn't a list of all 92 managers with odds next to them 😀

FWIW a double on us losing a game and SS getting sacked won't be allowed as one outcome influences the other, like we can't do a double on Arsenal to win their next game with them to win the league.

We could just turn up and fight, give our all and win this game but my head tells me they'll turn our home win margin right around, especially with the addition of a no-doubt hungry Taylor. I hope for a surprise but fear a 0-3

I've no hope of us winning this

Seriously thinking about sacking it off and going to Haydock 🫤

Woke up with a sniffle today and I'm praying it's full blown flu/covid/ebola

Think it will be more of the case of 2 teams who don't want to lose. Feels like a boring 0-0 or 1-1.

Then Stevenage away might be more decisive with our position with Schuey.

Win this 3-1

Think SS and Lowe would both be happy enough with 1-1.

not had your medication this morning? 

Spoke to a couple of Wigan supporters yesterday they are not that confident reckon Lowes football is turgid just sets up not to lose they reckon a draw is the likely result.

Dalby, all 3.

Kicks off a 10 game winning run with this new formation.

Its not for fun - Its wigan away FFS Taylor should be nowhere near our club ever!!!!! I would piay with ten men - it would be a vast improvement

Still not shown us your line up so we can scream at you how wrong you are. Of course it's for fun, we have absolutely NO sway on who gets selected, so why do it if it's not for fun?

A 93rd minute winner to finish 1-0,   followed by hours of ale and singing its happening again .....

If, and i know its a hugh if, we beat them, their season is over. Unless they think they can beat Arsenal away. The amount of stuff their putting out on social media, shows just how important this game is to them.

Dalby Dubbery and Toal

Sadly I just can’t work up an ounce of confidence for this one even though I desperately want to. I firmly believe we have the squad to outperform but I just think SS is getting so much wrong that I think it’s now being passed on to the players. I know the inverted wingers thing worked initially but it hasn’t done for s couple of months now as teams have found it out yet Schuey seems not to see it. The constant chopping and changing can’t possibly help players when they fear dropping for the next game however they play. Even the five substitutes every game achieves nothing positive just destroys any rhythm built up and must hack the players off who are replaced. There’s no question in my mind that we can win tomorrow but unless something changes system wise I don’t see it. Just hoping the chances go in for once doesn’t do it for me and if that’s all Schueys got then frankly I fear the worst.

Rumoured Team yet tbc by Royal

 

                 Bonham 

         Toal. Forino. Jonno. 

Jordi.                                Max. 

               Sheehan. 

       Amario.        Xavi. 

           Dalby. Mason.

 

 

 

Would it be more 3-4-3 with Burstow and Maso, more wide forward?

lol that team would get over run in the middle and battered is that ACD as a central midfielder. What have you been smoking do i need to call GMP.

Never mind what he's been smoking, I want what you have if your first choice XI has Ritchie starting

The inverted part isn't the problem. The problem is that we dont over or under lap, we dont play anything though the middle, we never get to the byline. We are totally 1 dimentional and easy to defend against. 

2 of our last 3 goals came from ACD doing exactly that and putting it back for Sheehan and Dempsey 

The other was a proper cross from the wing for the proper forward to head in

Many problems this season have been missing the "easy"  one on ones

Apart from the fact he volleyed it in, rather than headed it, you’re absolutely correct.

We can still get to the byline and be effective with inverted wingers. Conway illustrates how a full back can do this, but it also illustrates how we need Tutu or AN Other at right back, to do the same.

Yeah just watched it again, maybe was thinking about his first header in the move

Before it was put to the wing 

Anyway 

For me the problem is not how we create our chances but that we don't take them 

The number of shots to number on target our actual goals ratio shows this for me

Just not clinical enough 

And now our fragile defence has caught up with us it's not going our way

We were definitely papering over the cracks for a while, it was said that's fine as long as we win, but now we're not winning

We need to shape up at both ends, yet we've just lost two keepers in one day 

Manager needs a big re think, needs to find a way that delivers consistently that restores confidence in both players and fans

It means everything.  It is weird. I know a few wigan fans and ( apart from one who is a solicitor and he would be a massive cunt no matter who he followed) they are all fairly sound lads but mention us and they foam at the mouth .It is seriously odd.

I get that some of you dont see this as a big rivalry and if I didnt know any of the cunts I would probably see it the same way. But those of us who live close to them see it differently.During  their prem years my kids went to school in wigan and even the teachers gave em shit about being bolton.

Wigan folk are generally sound but when it comes to football and us they change, it defies all logic especially given that their shit stain of a club has only been playing with the big lads for a relatively short time. Speak to them and they think they are a similar outfit to us on and off the pitch they are fucking deluded. 

For the sake of all the kids that are schooled over there for those of us that live or work in or around wigan. Get behind the team suck the ball into the net show these filth what a proper lancashire football clubs fanbase looks and sounds like. If they aren't already, just for tomorrow make them your main rivals. If you dont think they are thats fine.  On Sunday you can go back to hating bury/city/manure or whichever club you like but tomorrow it is founder members of the football league Bolton Wanderers against Wigan Athletic a club that isnt even the biggest in its own ground.

FUCK the TICS

 

I lived among them for quite a few years and can relate to your experience. Until we ended up in the same league they never registered in my mind, it felt like they were all delude c***s once they came out of the woodwork. win tomorrow and everything in the world will be fine.
