Sifu

Well this is a f***ing disgrace from all involved at the FA. Words can't describe how everyone involved at NUFC must be feeling right now. Disgusting behaviour, they're pretty much condoning what McManaman did and that sets a dangerous precedent. Seriously it's things like this you think f*** football. f*** Wigan and f*** their insignificant club. Would love to see them get relegated and go out of business.

Has that cunt McManaman even apologised yet?

Good and good.

You're doubtless correct and I'm sure Whelan and Ashley are as big c***s as each other, but it says a lot about Whelan that he'll trivialise and defend a brutal, career threatening attack on a talented youngster new to the country just to score points that don't make any f***ing difference to anyone. He's lost my respect completely. Whelan never had my respect. I've never been that arsed about him either way. You see, he's one of those who I have an irrational hatred for. What he said today completely solidifies my opinion of him.

Did you ignore him? Brief eye contact but basically yes Also, I can confirm the rumours are true. Sifu's smile could win the heart of any man or woman. That's actually helped to calm me down, haha. Much appreciated

Nice to meet you too

Going to bed even angrier now. Brilliant.

That fucking linesman completely saw that. Absolutely disgraceful that he didn't flag for that. Cunt.

These cunts need to get relegated sooner rather than later.

He looked as gutted as we were at the final whistle (the last player to applaud the fans). Crazy f***er or not, he's become quite a lovable character.

All the best Haidara. Hope it's nowt too serious but that probably will be the last we'll see him this season. Speedy recovery. Baffling that no action was taken for that horror tackle. Halsey can apologise all he fucking wants but that the bottom line is he fucked up big time in taking no action - hope he stews in guilt tonight.

Just got back. Well that was an annoyingly shit game. We were shit for large portions of the game but thought we had a decent enough go for it in the second half (especially after our goal) and guess that is a positive in some way. Marveaux looked rather good. It was a game marred by a horrendous refereeing display from Halsey and his 2 jokers. Every 50-50 went Wigan's way and the fact he took no action on that horror tackle on Haidara is just baffling. Mind you this is the same man who saw Shearer get elbowed in the face and did nothing about it. Shit referee all round really. Didn't see the handball from our end so will need to catch that later on. Another thing I'd like to know is how did some of our fans sneak flares into the away end? Idiots I say (although not as big as an idiot as a lad in front of me who threw a coin onto the pitch). Disappointing day all round but the lads on my train back were in good voice, made the train journey less depressing.

There's some Teletubbies about. I'm by the Soccerdome, come say hello

Just arrived in Wigan. Right...

Erm.... I think it's time to post that photo of your shirt collection again.

Where are yous drinking once you arrive in Wigan? last time I went (06/07) there was only some crappy sports bar and a Harvester-style pub. Ketsbaia and I will be there. I think you'll recognise him. If so, come over and I will break my duck of letting people off the forum know who I am! Aye, I've met Ketsbaia (and have him on Facebook) so will come and say hello (provided that I can find you!)

Hmmm, just realised that the last time I went to an away game and saw us win was 23 November 2009 (the 1-0 win against Preston). Uh ohs.

O'Neill's definitely walking at the end of the season [/obviouslypointlesspostoftheday]

Red Robin is a good place for a few beers before/after. In the middle of a trading estate about 2 minutes walk from the away end and always packed full of our lot. That's my destination then

The Best International Poster award has a fair few new candidates.

Where are yous drinking once you arrive in Wigan? Last year we stopped on the way so went directly to the stadium when we got there. Left straight after the game as well. Does Neesy have your number mate? We can let you know what's going on tomorrow. Aye, I've got his number and he's got mine. Will give yous a buzz when I get to Wigan.

Leeds can stay in the Championship/the Football League forever as far as I'm concerned. Elland Road is a shithole and their fans are fucking cunts.

All eyes are pretty much on him now. Hope to fuck he stays injury free between now and the end of the season. Looks like his momentum is coming back and game after game can only help that.
