Looks like Stuart Hayton to the left of Reid? Wiganer through and through but left before Cook joined otherwise would have thought he could have gone through that reason.

No chance of winning today our record there is abysmal, been saying we are due a win there for too long that I've accepted it will never happen again.

It could definitely be a case of Cook missing Richardson and the rest of his backroom. We look a bit better defensively under Richardson but when Anthony Barry came in our defence in the 7 months of 2020 was excellent, now he is Chelseas defensive coach. We don t create as much under Richardson...

Only 500 or so turned up, maybe thats why the kick off got delayed to allow time for them to make it and many had to give up. Thus counting people in the attendance who never attended as I know all clubs do that for home season ticket holders, so this would make sense in that case. From...

Will try and get the Wigan ones from a programme, we sold just over 1900 for Sunderland and Rotherham half filled a block and a block holds 900, so would guess Rotherham was around 450-500 not sure where the 1k came from is that is miles off.

You know why they it was wrote off because it never existed in the first place. When you are threatened with criminal proceedings you kind of just let it go. It was a high interest loan that never actually got processed. You really think someone would have paid 26m to buy us? 10m wasn't a debt...

We had 7.25m taken off us. We only owed 5m that Summer. We had more than enough money coming in. We did not need administration and you know full well if was voted against and then a director removed to fix the vote and it was a plan set in motion before the club had been transferred to bankrupt...

Possibly the biggest nonsense I have ever read. What bust cycle? Wigan are the only team in any sport in history to have entered administration despite owing no money. The loss in revenue from being expelled from The Championship meant we had a shortfall last Summer when the money we should...

I can understand what you are saying too, administration seems to be considered an insolvency process, where sometimes you can enter it to prevent an event taking place. The event itself is when a debt hasn't been paid to a creditor. The EFLs rules gives full scope to exploit a challenge, which...

Information from public statements. We are subject to an insolvency event, however no payments have been missed. The EFL rules state they issue the 12 points in the event of an insolvency event occurring in the form of missed payments to creditors. This snippet is from the BBC about Blackpool...

I've wrote a lot elsewhere, this is dodgy as it gets. Au Yeung is an office worked recently declared bankrupt and is pretty skint. Certainly does have £40m, he is being used as a fall guy or his identity is being used as cover. if the EFL did any sort of check Choi would have been banned from...

Not surprised to see its Andy Davies, probably the worst referee we've had. Gave 3 random goals to Reading against us last season, should have won 2-0 but ended up losing 3-2, just incredibly poor. We had him a couple of weeks ago and he was dreadful again, failed to send a player off for a...

Reading should be really fancying their chances with Andy Davies in charge, astonished he's been allowed to referee that one.

It's a scorer more than a grafter we need. To be fair was impressed with Garner last season, worked hard and was great at winding people up, so that they made silly mistakes. Had a 1 in 2 goal scoring rate as well. Hugills wages were huge and 3.6m fee as well, for our revenue was too much for a...

Certainly splashing the cash this week. I actually don't want us to sign too many players because we have some excellent youngsters coming through that could have big careers and if a success would in todays market be worth a shed load to cash in on. We have to take a leaf out of Norwich...

I think this could be the most open season ever. No stand out teams at either end of the table. Pick names out of a hat for the order in which they finish as they will probably be as close as most predictions. Three teams that came down look weak or in a bit of trouble, Fulham spent massively...

Looks the weakest in probably the last decade. No stand out teams, the teams coming down look the weakest in a very long time. Teams that missed out on promotion could be torn apart, expecially as so many had a lot of loans. Will be wide open next season, a shock promotion/relegation wouldn't...

Avoided Leeds because of the prices, would loved to have gone sometime and the city of Leeds is class for drinking. Think we've won most of our games at Elland Road to be fair! Another ground like Villa Park that we just seem to love.

Wow, can't believe that happened. After what happened with the Leeds fans during the game, hopefully the top 2 stay as they are, absolutely no place for that in football, disgusting and cowardly. Can't behave then the FA should make the team play behind closed doors for the next match.

Yeah, seen the replay, hits his chest, ref not even looking properly. An absolute howler from the referee. Can't even begin to think why he'd make that decision?
