To be fair Shaw had to cover the overlap as well and no-one gave him any help, he got inside of Shaw but still ran about 15 yards with the ball with no-one else closing him down on the edge of the box, don't think you can blame him there.

Exactly!
If someone was worried about our survival hopes prior to today - and there are many - then I've no problem. But I have got a problem with anyone who has suddenly become worried. Did those people expect us to get something from this game??!!!!
As I say, if you were confident before today, you should still be confident now.
This. We need better impact players, no wonder people leave early at St Mary's. It'll go down to the last game, yes, but I think we'll come 16th. Predicting draws against Sunderland and Stoke, will 41 points be enough?
Nothing wrong with being a little bit worried. We've not scored in 3 games. Wigan's game in hand is a home game. It's called reality. The table is tight and we are slipping. That's a fact.
Indeed, which means that they need to win two of three against Swansea, Arsenal and Villa. Plus, Norwich needs to win against either West Brom or Man City, Sunderland needs to beat us, and Newcastle needs to win one of their two against QPR and Arsenal. If all of those things happen, then we'll need to pick up at least one point from two games.
3 games without a goal now. Not a good time to lose our shooting boots. We need to find the net big time in our next games.
On a side note, I know Hammers fans called us Lambert FC last year....but really Spurs are the absolute ultimate 1 man team, they are bang average when he doesn't turn up.
Fair point. But no-one helps Fox out either. People seem to happily ignore that though.
So today has been a pretty bad but not unexpected day. West Broms performance against us was a blip in their second half of the season and I had a feeling Wigan would win today. It was also always likely that we would lose to Spurs, especially with Morgan missing. Wigan still have a lot to do though, and I think we will win at least one of our remaining 2 games.
I don't know who I hate more at the moment - Gareth Bale or West Brom.
I think I will go with West Brom.
