Wigan Away The Pre Match Prattle

Good morning.

So here we are once more. Over our shoulder a victory of sizable proportion; the smell of Scouse blood barely gone from the nostrils. Ahead of us a shower of a team that on paper we ought beat by five goals or more.  But will we? The defining characteristic of last season and indeed seasons before that has been the inability to sustain the vaguest consistency. 

Dances with Scones is staring down the blade of a scalpel and The Times report that Tommy’s ankle needs to be ‘opened up again.’ Ouch. No only horrible but surely surgery to blight a big chunk of this season for him.

Where is Azza Blud? Still injured? I say Azza is still on the lamb in LegoLand Windor and refusing to come out except to mount snatch and run raids for fast food items from the hands of small children. A fortnight in, he’s become quite feral. 

Gallas is out but thought to be perhaps being readied for Arsenal indoors which takes place in a week and a day. I would imagine that King will rested for this also. Late fitness tests for Pav, A&E and Arry Redschnapp’s script writers who are reported as ‘being exhausted’.

This should be another rout in our favour. History has taught us that this is highly unlikely. History my peachy arse say I and 0-2 is my prediction.

      Spoilt us a bit last week. Normal heart stopping service is resumed.

        What happened in the second half? My link was fucking crap so I gave up in the end. At 2-0 and with us in charge WTF? Should have been 4-0 at half time if Bale had taken that second chance and adeboy had scored.

        Wonder what maestro tactics and instructions trout chops gave ’em at half time? :dizzy2:

          fuck sake, give it a rest, we won you know, great result which sets up the week to come rather nicely

          had BAE not fucked up for their goal we would have had an easy 2nd half, no team in the PL is going to let you come to their home ground and walk all over them but we could have been 3 up in the 1st 10 minutes

        • eastanglianspur says:

          No I’m not going to give it a rest when I see another two points nearly thrown away.

          If Martinez changed tactics what did our genius manager do apart from sit in the dug out twiddling his thumbs?

        • jfdit says:

          I wonder why other club’s fans slag us off and sometimes reading some of the comments on here I sort of know why

          ‘arry ain’t perfect but he’s our manager for the foreseeable future, continually insulting him even when the team are winning is incredibly childish and hardly fair.

          If we are bottom of the league at xmas and playing shite by all means spend your time slagging him off but coating him off after we’ve got a decent away win makes you sound like a proper miserable old fucker

        • eastanglianspur says:

          I’m not looking for perfection but when an opposing manager changes tactics I expect some counter changes from our manager not a ‘fingers crossed just hope for best’ attitude.

          You and I both know, if we’re honest, that this inaction on his part is the reason why he’ll not take us any further. He’s reached his zenith.

  • notsohotspurs says:

    Great result.

    Gave them a hiding first half.

    Have to say i admire Martinez. Turned that game around for Wigan tactically.

    Imagine what he could do with quality players.

    Bring on the Goons.

  • Alspur says:

    Big week, this one: only 3 wins will do!! One down, two to go…. C O Y S!!!

  • xildnparadise says:

    Hey 2 wins away at teams with W’s……. This happened last year and we would be back on the big euro stage…

  • Hartley says:

    Good win….made it look hard, but don’t we always? Onwards and upwards COYS

    • eastanglianspur says:

      “Good win….made it look hard”

      As long as trout chops is the manager that’s how it will always be.

      • Essexian76 says:

        You’re a bloody Arsenal fan on a wind-up, and bloody hell I fell for it, well done you, you got me good an proper!

      • spurious supporter says:

        east angular, are you related to Plan B ?

        Because you come across as a total PlanK.

        • Hartley says:

          East, spurious is just another spin off of McAvity who is best to be ignored….he uses low tactics which I won’t go into and uses blogs like this one a bit like Drogba uses health and safety gone mad in his tactics when confusing referees on a football field… We all know Redknapp is punching above his weight and time will tell that the ambitious amongst us were in the right all along so let them get on with their ‘you’ve never had it so good’ preaching and pray that when the f*cker does eventually leave us for whatever selfish reason, he doesn’t leave us in the position he left the rest of the clubs he has (mis) managed…

        • Phil McAvity says:

          What have I done now? I haven’t even been involved in this one and you are digging me out?

          You really are a twat of the highest order. ‘Low tactics’ eh? Beacuse I’m not a negative pleb but instead I can see the positive things about Spurs right now?

          You and East really should form a double team!!

        • eastanglianspur says:

          @spurious Yes I am related to plan B and plan C, because I have those plans. Perhaps I should be the manager of Tottingham Hotspurs due to the fact that our genius manager hasn’t any plans at all. He’s related to the king of the back pass, Frank Lampard :winke:

        • eastanglianspur says:

          @Hartley You’re right, of course, best ignored if one can. Trouble is I can’t resist a laugh. :lol:

        • Phil McAvity says:

          You know what East I think that Essexian has a point, you are an ARSEnal fan aren’t you?

          Who are Tottingham Hotspurs old bean?

        • eastanglianspur says:

          “Who are Tottingham Hotspurs old bean?”

          Ask HH, he’ll tell yah.

          I know all about you and Essexian76. :freu
