Match Day Thread Wigan Athletic vs Southampton 18/03/2018 BBC 1 @ 1:30pm

Hallelujah! The best ref in the country!

(Let’s hope Mr Burt makes up for his faux pas at Wembley a year ago!)

 

Bloody hell we've got a decent ref.

Buzzing for this one.

 

Definitely....he should signal for a penalty the first time anyone gets within a metre of one of our players in the penalty box.

 

And what exactly do they base their view on of Watson (or for that matter Black). The team does badly and they find a scapegoat. I will only listen to the views of Saintsweb on our coaches if they can prove that they personally attend all training sessions.

 

Postman has been

 

Is their badge actually a pie with a tree poking out of it?

 

But which penalty box?

 

From pies come all things.... probably

 

They have to be in the penalty box in the first place. Need PENALTY BOX in big letters at the Wigan end and arrows pointing that way. Might help.

 

Perhaps I set the standard too high. A penalty should be awarded if anyone gets within a metre of one of our players...if the said player could reach the penalty box with a hop, skip and a jump before falling flat on his face. .

 

I think anywhere in the Wigan half would be better.

 

Mick Channon just had the winner of the last race at Cheltenham - it's a sign I tells yer.

 

Well we better stick Mick up front on Saturday!

 

That will do **** all good. We're playing on Sunday.

 

Well, if Mick starts out on the halfway line on Saturday, he'll probably be in their penalty area by Sunday. Or he could ride one of his horses, to give him a height advantage

How many tickets did we start with?

Sorry....just opened it properly: 4,600.....so a good crowd going.

 

Its a shame I’m away on holiday in Italy! Would loved to have gone to the game...

Oh well time for brioche!

 

Train tickets booked!!

 

Brioche and at least 5 of those little coffees? Now I'm jealous.

Bacon roll and a pint of tea on Sunday I reckon.
