    If Wigan's playing budget was £18m last season, I believe even a 65% reduction will leave it as a top half budget next year...

    These playoffs are very simple IMHO: - League One, anyone but Borough - League Two, anyone but Salford

    Roughly 100 matches of time for U23s is way too low by our standards. We've not had many good quality youngsters through lately - Bennett is looking good and likely to be the regular right back next season but Worman, Okadina and Simper have not kicked on as hoped, and Ibsen-Rossi (who looked...

    United playing some decent stuff - I’m hoping for another goal second half. It’s odd being totally dependent on results elsewhere though…

    Yeah, sorry, I have that arse about face; VAT reporting consistency is the reason for reporting tickets sold, not fans attending. It was a long day…

    This debate about including unused season tickets in attendance figures is weird - very few clubs will do so, if only because HMRC will want to see some evidence that the attendances correlate with the receipts declared for VAT when they do a VAT inspection. I’m not aware of any clubs at League...

    Tues 25th/Sat 29th fixtures

    On the promoted teams debate, out stats guy did some research at the start of 2021/22 season that proved that promoted clubs on average have a statistically better first half to their first season than second half, presumably as teams take a little while to suss newly promoted sides out. Also...

    Looks like we will take 1200+ to the Pirelli tonight... lots of very nervous U's, I think! Another performance like Saturday's should do the trick.

    Coleman was extremely honest and gracious after Saturday's defeat, which must have hurt him personally given the strength of his connection with Accrington - very impressive...

    Tues 25th/Sat 29th fixtures

    Our first eleven almost picks itself - ten points from six games and those included Plymouth, Bolton, Wycombe and Peterborough, so it’s a decent side. All depends which team settles first I think, and whether we can actually take our chances , unlike against Wycombe. Accrington are a bit of a...

    That 5-0 loss to York was the pits...., fortunately I missed the 5-0 at Histon in the Trophy. I reckon we have a 50-50% chance of staying up - that will improve mightily if we can get a win at Accrington, but I fear we are done if we lose that game.
