  • Interested to see which wing back plays which side. Suspect we will keep Small on the right at least from the start but might mix it up in game. 

    These next 10 games are where our squad cutting strategy in January comes under scrutiny. A bench like this is fine for the odd game but continue for the rest of the season and we struggle. We dont have that many out, AMB, Edwards, Aneke and Gilbert, anyone else?
    Damned if they do damned if they don’t. The whole of CL was screaming that the squad was too big in December. Now because we’ve got a couple out getting rid of the dead wood was a bad idea? 
    I wasn't, in fact I was worried about talk of shrinking the squad given our tendency to pick up injuries.
  • Well good luck everyone, see you on the post match thread.
  • Got a feeling Gas will probably come on late and grab the winner...these things happen

    But for WHO Kammy?
  • Either their interim coach is a lookalike or Ryan Lowe is actually in the Wigan dugout 
  • So much for Ryan Lowe not taking charge today I might add...
  • Another kick off on time ... what is the world coming to?

    Surprised to see Ahadme on the bench ahead of Hylton and Kanu considering Jones clearly doesn't rate him.
    Or the evidence for your assumption wasn’t as clear as you thought it was.

    It's not MY assumption at all. 

    Thankfully I don't presume to know what the coaching staff think from afar or confuse my own opinion with being fact.

    Small lining up next to Gillesphey so presume he's Left-Back (Small that is)

    Edit: Yup Small at Left-Back

    Both our wing-backs are comfortable on both sides. I wonder if they'll swap at any point 
    Not sure I’ve seen T Watson truly comfortable .  But I agree - he should be left side 
  • VFR booming through on the stream 
  • Get up you tart... Wigan player goes down in our box claiming a push after a free kick from the Centre Circle... Referee is unimpressed

    Huddersfield 1-0 Crawley 

    Give in, I am not quick enough with scores, I will leave to others 😁
  • Tube screwed up, so going to be very late today.

    I've asked Nathan to make sure we have another one of those tedious first 30 minutes where nothing much happens, before clicking into attacking gear after the break...
    Just left London Bridge, not helped by a gap in the service. Surprised to see some Wigan supporters on the train, a long way to travel to miss 25 minutes of the game!
  • Free Kick over by the Charlton dugout for Wigan

    Comes in, flicked on but Mannion gathers comfortably
  • Lots of little fouls being given, not going to be overly physical

  • Could have done with this referee last week, being very pedantic!!
  • Really fussy ref
  • Danger cross into our penalty area, Jones and Ramsay marking their mans out of it, to ensure that it goes for a Goal Kick - Great ball though
  • Oooh, that was an iffy free kick for them, Godden almost through on goal
  • Urghhhhhhhh... Referee... that was soft!!

    Wigan player gets caught on the ball just outside their area, goes down softly under pressure from Coventry who won the ball, played in a dangerous pass to their box

    But the referee after hesitating gave a foul

    We obviously softened Crawley up
  • Huddersfield 2-0 Crawley

    Charlie Baker OG
  • Northampton 1-0 Birmingham
  • So far it sounds like an uneventful start to the game.

    Good.
