A bad mother… Shut your mouth!
The easiest way to deal with this game would be to ignore it, pretend it didn’t happen, don’t get dragged into the doom, gloom and… OH MY GOD, WERE ALL GOING TO HELL IN A HANDCART.

After my rant earlier about missing the game yesterday and having not reported on the trip to Blackburn, I thought that I’d better give some time over to reflecting on where the last two games leave us. Which roughly translates as “I can be bothered to write up two match reports, but here is a […]
If you could pick five things to not happen on the morning of a big game then I reckon that players going on strike and big transfer deals falling through would be contenders (even if they are made up). It was only yesterday that Bobby was saying that he’d rather be talking about football than […]
It was never going to be an easy match to review, Premier League [cough] giants against fourth division minnows and all that. It ‘s pretty hard to be magnanimous in defeat when there ‘s such a gap in league placings and even harder to do both sides justice should the relative positions hold true. Don […]
A muddy field, jumpers for goal posts, the roar of wintergreen, the smell of a crowd. These are the things that childhood memories are made of and it’s always the cup. It might be a symptom of supporting a lower division side but I never dreamed of league glory. Lifting the Fourth Division Championship Trophy […]
What do you reckon will characterise Latics’ season by the time we get to May? Yes, outsiders will focus on the inconsistency, the young manager and inexperienced team (all hopefully come good) but for all of us with a seat at the DW, a Latics Player subscription and a log-in somewhere on the Wigan Wide […]
Back to work this week and I ‘ve not really had chance to think to think about the Wolves game other than a vague intention to email my wolves supporting mate to get a deserved winding up over Latics ‘ chances. Of course I didn ‘t get around to it and now I ‘m left […]
League positions, form and just sheer gut reaction tell you that this game is more likely to hinge on how Latics cope with Villa’s attacking threat than how much they threat they pose themselves and you can currently get 13-1 for a 2-0 away win against 20-1 for the reverse score over on Betfair. Things […]
I realise that this is a bit on the late side, but it’s not only the team that have been suffering for form of late and a bout of some kind of lurgy or other, in top of the chaos that is Christmas with two young kids has pretty much done for any festive plans […]
It doesn’t take that long for the Premier League sheen to wear off, does it? From must see away game in 2005/06, through “protect our goal difference at all costs” to a game you just want to get out of the way so that you can get on with the real stuff in three easy […]
