Under the lights

Has anybody got any fingernails left after Saturday?
Talk about nervy endings to a match.
Saturday was a really important result, for one Shrewsbury are close to us in the table and secondly it was a return to winning ways after two disappointing defeats against both Exeter and Oxford.
Latics looked in control against Shrewsbury without ever looking like we would run away with it, indeed Thelo Aasgaard could have made things a lot more comfortable if he had made a better connection with the chance he had towards the end of the match.
Instead we had the ridiculous situation of the team having to see out eleven minutes of injury time. Where the referee had got eleven minutes of injury time from is anyone’s guess.
When the previous two games had seen ridiculous amounts of time wasting that had only garnered a total of three minutes injury time.
All you ask for from officials is consistency, but anyone who’s watched Wigan Athletic in League One this season will know that consistency is the last thing we’ve had from referees this season.
So we’ve hit the 40 point mark and February isn’t even finished yet. We’re not quite there in terms of League One survival but we’re not far away.
Another handful of wins should see us safe, let’s hope we can get one of those on Friday.
I’m looking forward to another match under the lights on Friday.
We’ve barely had a Saturday match at home this year and when we have it feels like we’ve not done as well as in the night matches so we may as well embrace it.
Get behind the lads on Friday if you can.
