Is this game going to be on tv anywhere then?

If he does, he'll probably scrape past it. Come off the bench as a 33 year old recalled to the squad and grab a late tap in against Uzbekistan.

Interesting picture of Shearer that Umbro are using behind the interviewer - head in hands, probs after England have just been knocked out of a tourney...instead of a one of him arm in air celebrating another goal

 

The picture to the right shows him wheeling away in traditional one arm raised fashion after his goal against Germany in Euro 2000 I think it was.

Yeap... the other photo was a few days later after the defeat to Romania, and elimination from Euro 2000 (just for info  )

Hehe, nice little piece. Thanks for that.

I'm just so happy to see Zoggy run wild and free. Was always clear all he needed was a run in the team that he had rightly earned after his first season.

He's improved a lot in the last year. Becoming much more productive. Yes good enough, and at the moment a definite starter (on the right wing preferably).

Only 1-0, but very much a quality display!

Zoggy's best match for a while, I reckon.

yeap. At least since last week I think.

Surely you can't classify this game as "frustrating" there was release at the end!

Big day for Zoggy again.

Wigan pretty much had nothing in the second half. Nothing whatsoever.

Excellent result. Excellent performance mostly. Excellent start to the season.

Aye. Only 1-0, but the nature of the game was brilliant. 0-0 would have been a terrible result, no two ways about, no kneejerk about it. Without the win, worthless.

We talked about this after the Villa game, a convincing win was needed... we got that today.

Legend Oba... getting stuck in keeping the ball in the corner, getting whacked! top man

GOT TO HOLD ON!! would be typical to concede from this Wigan team now§

Yeap. Good call for the Taylor strike. WAS offside

Fucking terrible result if we don't win this.

No two ways about it. It's been a long long time since we've dominated a game this much... but all worthless if we don't win.

Because there isn't one. Coming from two separate angles.

he did give him a slight nudge him in the back.... would have been a very soft free kick though I agree... but he simply never does himself any favours (because he's an idiot btw).

 

"Typical Shola twatery for his chance... felt the need to bundle over the wigan player when he was going absolutely nowhere. Luckely the ref didnt give it"

 

Sort yourself out M4TT...it either was a foul or it wasn't, you've claimed it was (because it supports your anti-Shola views) the replays apparently show it not to be a foul at all....you then start back-tracking. Accept that your view of Shola clouded your judgement.

fucking hell man... he WAS lucky the ref didnt give it because he clearly put an arm out to the Wigan defender. Not backtracking on that. and it WOULD have been a soft free kick. What the hell?

Come on OBA! on to save the day!

Typical Shola twatery for his chance... felt the need to bundle over the wigan player when he was going absolutely nowhere. Luckely the ref didnt give it, Shola puts it just wide anyway.

Shit

 

You are new here, so I say that you can only say shit if we concede or miss a penalty, otherwise it freaks people out unnecessarily.

hehe, indeed, it worked on me... was refreshing the match thread like mad.

Was very borderline hand ball... one of those you see go either way... just about should have been a pen though

Poor call from the linesman... bit of a ping pong leading to a disallowed goal. Definitely NOT offside. Shame.

Saw the ting on the BBC main page:

"Fans were 'tired' of Allardyce - Gartside"

Seems very petty from them. As if the head of Bolton are trying to act as Big Brother and retroactively change the facts.

Goodbye Sir Nobs
