Match Day Thread Wigan Athletic FC v Sunderland AFC – Thursday 29th December 2022 - KO 19:45

Tight but we might just do it

 

Never thought I'd be saying it, but might be worth resting Clarke for Dejaku for a couple of games??

 

Clarke needs a rest on NYD. Looks absolutely fecked.

Both Roberts and Dajaku did enough for me tonight to jump ahead of him. And hopefully Cirkin may be back as well

 

Ta for that didn’t see it on Sky at all.

 

Well done TM & the lads, as soon as I seen the team my heart sank, I feared the worst. I’m happy to eat humble pie! I have doubted our depth of quality and tonight has calmed my nerves. Some really good performances, special mention to Dan Neil who looked head & shoulders above this league tonight, Ballard is just pure quality. I’m absolutely chuffed. Proud of the lads tonight

 

Jinx

 

Regarding the sky red button.
I tried lots of times but just got a recap page when pressing the red button.
A half an hour ago it said match choice and recap but when I pressed the red button I got a fault message and try again later.
Just now I tried again on the match choice and recap red button and could only get the recap up with no match options.

I reckon sky red button is faulty at their end.
Did any of you watch this game on sky red button match choice?
It normally works for me but not tonight.

 

Didn't see that coming at HT. Brilliant. Racking up the points now and looking up, not down

 

Did anybody have any sort of idea what Kolo Toure’s tactics were?

 

I did although I was a tad impatient thinking the menu for the games was not going to show.

 

Damage limitation. Sh*t scared of the mighty SAFC.

 

I couldn’t get it on till 2nd half with the same fault. Def an issue at their end, bad crack considering the money we pay. Thank god for the “other” method I had to watch it

 

Unbelievable hit that last one. We were right behind it in the 3rd row. Always finding the corner. Absolute rocket.

 

Neil motm for me he was excellent. It's been great seeing him develop this season. He's kept up a solid high standard and even in games he hasn't been as good in he's done his defensive work well.

Love to see a local lad doing well.

 

well we were playing in Man city colours lol, that 4th goal though, wow.

 

He definitely needs a rest. It's worth noting that he's already played more games this season than in any other season of his career. He's contributed massively, but we may need to rest him every now and then just to take him out of the firing line.

 

So, people are saying McClean did a massive knee slide in front our fans when they scored?

Thick as ****ing mince that lad

 

Ba looks a player as well btw. Excellent forward running from midfield.

 

Yes he did. And yes he is.

 

I was busy typing up that the 3rd goal was porn, then the 25 yarder flew in.
