    Hi fromthestands. I find this one really hard to call. Wigan play great football, but results are unpredictable. We've had a really mixed season but on a good run of form - albeit with key players missing (yet again). After the 4-0 last year, I'm not going to dare predict on this one.

    Anyway, good luck for the rest of the season after Sunday. <ok>

    Hope it is a great game, at least that way both sets of fans can be reasonably happy.

    Just looked at the table/fixtures and if we win tomorrow, we could easily be 10th by the end of the weekend. Fulham v Spurs and West Ham v Chelsea- would say both teams drop points. Would hope Stoke lose to West Brom, and I suppose we can all hope for a Sunderland/Norwich draw!

    is Krul back yet?

    Tiote needs to be dropped and The Moussa should play deeper so he can win the ball.

    Marv, Cisse and Le Gouf in attack. And I think Haidara is playing better than Santon currently so put him LB.

    Krul, Cabs, Colo, Benni & Raylor all out.

    Agree about Tiote, but will be harder to leave him out with no Cabaye either. Marv has created both winning goals for Cisse in the last week. Looking better.

    Marv has to start really. Have to say I thought he was poor against Anzhi the other night, very frustrating. But it was a pearler of a ball in. If we get the balance right in terms of defensively minded midfielders, then we can release him. I can't consider playing Moussa deeper though, he is having too big an impact up top. Perch has every right to feel he should replace Tiote though. It still feels strange saying that! You'd have been carted off to the loony asylum 1-2 seasons ago.

    Must say the wait for the mod interview was a tense affair.

    The Mods are already inside. Silly old buggers.
