    West Brom

    I don’t know what the points return is over the years. But we always seem to pick-up more than our fair share against WBA. Today I thought a point was in reach. But great to see us snatch the winner. Not a fluke result either. We held our own and had a couple more chances to extend the lead.

    Brexit and all that shite ....

    This very thread demonstrates how lost the left has become. Each post is filled with wild generalisations, with their own prejudices in full view. Terms like Gammon, Far Right, Climate Denier are thrown around. Tory politicians, particularly Working Class & Minorities, are relentlessly attacked...

    Brexit and all that shite ....

    I’m sure when this vulnerable individual inevitably has a breakdown. The people behind the scenes exploiting her will reflect. Or maybe not. Same goes for the mental health issues for millions of children around the globe. Who as a matter of fact are being told life won’t be worth living in...

    Cook My Biggest Achievement So Far

    The best for all parties is Cook keeps us up and leaves in the summer on good terms. This season has been a huge underachievement for the ambitions of this club. It’s still a toss of the coin it could turn into a disaster with relegation. I have few issues with the 1st team squad. That’s...

    Brexit and all that shite ....

    Right-Wing, Far-Right, Nazi. Terms that have lost their power due to the left applying them to all and sundry. Including the only Labour leader to win a General Election in the last half century. Whether it’s Priti Patel, Sajid Javid or Rishi Sunak. The abuse they receive is over and above any...

    Reading game

    Most complete performance so far this season. Game management was what impressed me most.

    Brexit and all that shite ....

    Perhaps the police could, you know, start clamping down of knife crime and gang culture. A problem that was ignored for years due to concerns over ‘race relations’. A pretty warped concern mind you. Given it was black kids disproportionately suffering at the hands of these thugs. The fight back...

    Tonights Championship games

    The worry is, by our standards, we’ve had a decent 4-5 games. Yet still remain 3pts from safety, 4pts with goal difference. I’ll start to believe if we pull off another win tomorrow. A draw really isn’t enough given WBA are up next. If we come out of the weekend’s games 4-5pts behind our...

    Tonights Championship games

    I’m still very much of the opinion we’re battling not to finish bottom. I just don’t see us stringing the required results together to pull us out of this. The damage was done long ago.

    Brexit and all that shite ....

    The left despises politicians like Patel as she doesn’t fall into the stereotypes they portray. When you have a popular government and policies. Personal attacks are the last resort. Likewise, it’s good to see disgruntled (former) officials, throwing their toys out of the pram. I’m sure we’ll...

    Brexit and all that shite ....

    Common sense to have an Australian style points system. With exceptions for certain industries like agriculture and NHS. It’s also welcome to encourage the best workers from across the globe. Rather than favouring EU workers.

    Cardiff (A)

    Anything can happen of course. But I really cannot believe we’ve dropped Gelhardt, Pilkington & Jacobs. First time in an age we looked dangerous going forward. Irony being Jacob’s had been awful when he was a fixture in the team. In recent games he’s looked promising and linked up well with...

    IEC Changes

    To be honest. I’d take everything in that report with a pinch of salt. The business, Wigan Athletic, has been separated from IEC. To avoid going through the obligations & scrutiny of the HK Stock Exchange. The same individuals are running and financing the club. However, they still need to...

    Tonights Championship games

    We’ve been a fixture in the bottom three for most of the season. Something exceptional will need to happen for that to change. We are one poor set of results away from needing a 6+ point turnaround just to get on equal terms. It means the weekend game against Cardiff cannot be a write-off. Even...

    Brexit and all that shite ....

    If anyone was in any doubt. It’s becoming increasingly clear this government intends to deliver on its promises. We will see the kind of radical politics last seen in the 80’s. Only adapted to the 2020’s. Spending is going to shoot up. Both on public services and major infrastructure projects...

    Pretty hardline appointment.

    Tonights Championship games

    Not the worst set of results. But we’re now in the territory where each game needs to be approached as a must win. Of course we don’t technically need to win each game. But a poor set of results any given weekend (or midweek) could see us needing two wins just to catch up. I don’t have much...

    Middlesbrough (H)

    It was a real kick in the guts tonight. For the first time in an age it felt like the team, manager & fans came together. Albeit due to the injustices of the ref. That said we still made basic errors and didn’t finish the game off. Gelhardt and Pilkington added a lot to our attacking prowess...

    'Boro'

    Naismith redeemed himself somewhat over the Christmas and January period. But tonight he was so far off the pace. I kinda feel sorry for him as he’s asked to play so many positions. It’s difficult to keep track.
