Good news.

[midds]

Chances of winning just got a whole lot better.

[Frazzle]

Simpson won't be losing any sleep then...eh....eh....

 

 

Losing any sleep...

I may need to brush up on my jokes, this is true.

Which one are you; Cannon or Ball?

[Cajun]

Which one are you; Cannon or Ball?

 

He's a cannibal.

[Guest ObiChrisKenobi]

:colo:

[Beren]

Insomnia suspended then?

[MKSC]

Insomnia suspended then?

 

Haven't seen or heard of the incident, so unless it's reversed or appealed then yes he'll miss the game on Sunday. Which is good as he was nailed on to score against us again.

[Guest Heneage]

Just seen it on Sky, not a chance it will get overturned it's an unprovoked headbutt to the side of Wilshire's head.

[Hughesy]

Great news re the Zog.

[PM]

Wigan manager Roberto Martinez: "Charles N'Zogbia's actions were unforgiveable but we should look at the positives today, not negatives."

 

Suggests he definitely won't be appealing anyway.

[Cheshire Mag]

Is it really true that we have only scored once away against Wigan?

Was that Carroll one yeah?

 

Guthrie penalty.

[Foluwashola]

Going to start getting extremely worried if we get nothing against this shower of shite.

 

Would probably have taken a draw but with Wigan Insomnia-less they have fuck all in terms of creativity and we should be looking to snatch all 3.

[Disco]

Cheers Charlie.

[Guest BlacknWhiteArmy]

Very important we go all out to win this now, certainly winnable.

[Dinho lad]

Cheers Charlie.

 

stupid twat, he is.

[cubaricho]

Look at their defence tonight: Ronnie Stam, Gary Caldwell, Antolin Alcaraz and Steve Gohouri, with Steve Caldwell on the bench.

 

Carroll will have a field day, in fact all our attacking players will.

carroll is all our attacking players.

 

I laughed at this in such a sad way because it's so true.

Appeal would only see it extended for wasting (ha!) the FA's time wouldn't it?

[Teasy]

Guthrie penalty.

 

Also interesting to know that of the 4 goals Wigan have scored against us at their ground over the years 3 of them were scored by Ryan Taylor.

Carroll didn't do much in the return fixture IIRC.

[Guest palnese]

That's right, but Carroll dived for iirc

 

He was punched in the head by Kirkland.

Almost certainly.

Hopefully they appeal so that he's out for the derby as well. (or is that outside of 4 games)
