WAFC v SAFC

Another magnificent win and performance!

Sunderland put us under pressure at certain times during the game,but we defended superbly (apart from the goal) and limited them to very little in terms of chances.Johnston in particular was outstanding.
On the other hand we've easily created the better opportunities going forward through some good play and should've really extended our lead.

Dodoo has been instrumental in these last 2 games and his 2 assists tonight,along with his pace,constant movement and closing down is causing problems for defenders.This is making space for the other attacking players around him,so we are looking dangerous in the final third and creating chances.

There's still a lot of work left to do,but these massive back to back wins are crucial for momentum to propel us out of the bottom 4 and if we keep up these recent performances we'll stay out. UTFT!
 
Had a few friends round tonight where we normally watch the match at DW n it was like old times....banter & bullshit during the 1st half of match whilst having a few drinks....second half was more of the same but after going up 2-1 we became more focused n were screaming n shouting for everything compared to 1st half....needless to say it was a fraught last 5 mins n was glad to see the full time whistle blown. It led to a fair bit of discussion of our time as a club, our support & our reasons for supporting Latics....the overwhelming thoughts were how we missed the getting together of fans, the socialising, the meeting up for drinks & chat afterwards be it celebrating a win or mulling over / moaning of a loss but more than anything was missing out on a catch up with old friends...
In summary a great win with destiny in our own hands but regardless of what league we may be in we will be able to meet up, have a catch up, check we're all OK & have a drink to celebrate that fact....UTFT
 
Didn’t get the opportunity to watch this evening but delighted with the result. Given the turmoil the club has faced this season we really should be dead and buried. Remarkable we’re not and it seems the Wigan spirit lives on and hasn’t been broken, whatever the final outcome. Desperately want us to get back in the ground to give these lads some support and help them get over the line, so bloody frustrating.
 
Good news lang back on bench ,same starting lineup as Saturday, come on lads "up the tics"👊

Moonay you "liked" this post earlier, you had every opportunity then to disagree with the starting line up with Lang on the bench.

I posted my comment at kick off time, still no comment from you until after the final whistle then another from you later on, like i said....Hindsight.
 
Fully deserved. What a performance from some of those players.

I have to say that Johnston has always looked a decent player, but Ojo and especially Dodoo are completely unrecognisable from the players who turned up in January.

Magnificent.
Gelling together as a team is not a short process and this squad is in a way the third squad we have had this season. It's a struggle to get off the blocks in any year even after a pre-season but for our sides it's been traumatic. Highly credible and miraculous if we can stay in the safety zone and stay up.

My my T&C. You're really getting your knickers in a twist re your (admit it) rather silly comment re Lang and Aasgard, aren't you?!

I liked Benvernutti's post as we'd been led to believe that Lang might not be available to play due to his concussion & the associated precautions. However, even being on the bench seemed to be a positive ...hence a like.

Instead, you chose to have one of your usual little rants for no apparent reason. I suppose you feel a little silly right now. That's understandable.

Only one person looking a t**t pal and it ain't me!
 
So proud of that performance as a number of times this season the first goal has been a massive psychological hurdle for the team. The way the light played on the DW pitch took me to days gone by as the surface looked better and the dark dull days have lifted.

That was the first latics victory I have seen in 17 attempts!! 16 paid games at £10 a pop and chorley in the cup but well worth it. Last victory was Donny 1 - 0 garner about 5 games in. Missed all the others since.

Feels very nice to be out of that relegation zone and know we have out fate in our own hands again. Like MK and Plymouth last month 2 good wins and goals flowing. We MUST follow up early in sat and beat crewe now.

The difference last night with the front 4 on form and corners being delivered, second balls being won and so on gives us so much more intent.

I hope I get to return soon to the DW and that we are starting in league 1 with a solid base next season and I know the fire generated over the last year in the fans will make us a real force next season. I'll pay my £10 again on sat and dawn the latics colours and hope that these players can carry us over the line.
 
If you want to see someone really spit their dummy out then check out a podcast on YouTube by some guy called jam sarny, giving his match review. I'd post a link but don't know how to. 😂

That is not a match review, its a video of an attention seeking knob having a rant.
