Vital Champions League
How about the last minute of the Shrewsbury game ?
And the last minute of the Fleetwood game.
How about the last minute of the Shrewsbury game ?
Tonight, he was ok, but should have done better for their second........but then again so should the ones marking the back post.Would you count tonight as one of those games ?
We won despite him, not because of him and that is more often than what you claim.
Perhaps we would still be in the championship if not for his antics v WBA last season.
So it is ok to balance regulation saves which is part of his job with shocking lapses and errors like two tonight.
One long term Latics fan summed it up on CL site '' this is NOT a normal Latics team of recent times, but an Admin 11 team and they been have thrown into the 'Lions Den' without any warning.So it is ok to balance regulation saves which is part of his job with shocking lapses and errors like two tonight.
And just for the record I thought my comments were pretty balanced.
During a game formby " balanced " is the last word you could describe yourself with. One minute you're on suicide watch then swing to a meth high then back to suicide watch...there is ground in-between, try it.
For those that can't see Liam is pulling off a miracle I suggest you look at Boltons results and league standing after admin in this league last season. Unbelievable.

Give them break for 'God's Sake'.
Bolton started off on minus 12,were 22 points adrift with a poor goal difference and only 11 games left before covid stopped the season.Even without that deduction they would've gone down unless a miracle tics style great escape happened.Bolton Started off at Minus 20 and would have probably stayed up without points deductions
To be fair to them they were in an even more dire straits team selection wise when the season kicked off.Bolton started off on minus 12,were 22 points adrift with a poor goal difference and only 11 games left before covid stopped the season.Even without that deduction they would've gone down unless a miracle tics style great escape happened.
We did have a bit more experience in the squad than they did when the season kicked off but those experienced players have really suffered with injuries this season.Plus they got taken over only a few games into the season in late August and then signed a load of more experienced players.To be fair to them they were in an even more dire straits team selection wise when the season kicked off.
That last minute save was hardly a "regulation save". I'm not saying he is not suspect at times, but this is L1 and we are a lower half team at best currently. Plus the number of goals he is allegedly at prime fault with are grossly exaggerated by those who have an axe to grind.So it is ok to balance regulation saves which is part of his job with shocking lapses and errors like two tonight.
But nearly every game for them was like a Crewe or Rochdale game for us this season. We have done far better than they did, at this stageBolton Started off at Minus 20 and would have probably stayed up without points deductions
We’ll have to agree to differ Hindley. I’m the first to admit that I have found watching us tough since the team was given away and yes, I get incredibly frustrated, but for once, I thought I was reasonably balanced in my comments last night. I’m finding it tough to watch I guess after the highs of the second half of last season.During a game formby " balanced " is the last word you could describe yourself with.

They had a 12 point deduction and without it would have finished on 26 points instead of 14, (9 points from safety even without the deduction) and would have still finished next to bottom.Bolton Started off at Minus 20 and would have probably stayed up without points deductions
Agreed but how poor must Owen Evans be ?I think everyone is giving them a break, but it's not wrong to discuss things that could be better. Jamie Jones has made some great saves this season but has let some howlers in, I think most would say he would not be their first choice all things being even, but we are were we are
