    Who Gets Relegated Alongside Ipswich Thread 18/19

    No surprise to see it's John McGinn with the embarrassing dive again. Total cheat that lad. Surely he gets the retrospective 3 match ban now?

    I agree. Atmosphere alone that table is fair. But pubs and food and away capacity then it's a bizarre list. Like you said Preston voted best away this year, we've won it on several occasionsn and we're both bottom 4 in talksport list. Preston all things considered is definitely one of the best...

    I've since seen the replay and you probably need to as well. I agree that it was a foul by Morsy not sure how the ref gave it the other way. However, Morsy did not stamp on Wilson at all. Wilson leaned his head into Morsy, not much contact but you get red for intent according to the rules. A...

    Expected a lot more than Derby today. We were on top for the first 15 minutes and should have taken the lead before our red card which changed the game completely and Derby took advantage of our sudden lack of shape and blitzed us for 20 minutes after, thought they'd run away with it batter us...

    Surprised at Derby's boycott today, fans were quiet throughout and just wouldn't get behind their team. Is there problems with the owners or something that the fans aren't happy about?

    Away Day Sesh

    Blackpools a shit hole, got to be in the Summer to enjoy it. Far better pubs in Wigan and Preston. We're pretty lucky to be fair, so many pubs and think I've seen somewhere we have the most breweries per head? Lot's of good places to eat and we seem to have held firm and avoided the big chain...

    First time Ive evee missed Bolton away on a weekend when I've been at home but at £35 they can fuck off, absolutely disgraceful. Credit to Preston charging £24 enabling us to take nearly 4,000. Be sub 1,000 at Bolton I reckon our lowest ever following to them in our history. Would have taken...

    Blades v Latics

    Nailed on defeat. Shite away tactics were we play negative, slow dull long ball football and with our 6 best attacking players all out to make things worse. At home we play high tempo, high pressing, quick passing, attacking football were we get forward with pace and in numbers and have the...

    Leeds vs Brentford

    Never a penalty in a million years that. Awful decision.

    PNE vs Pie Shaggers

    So you dont think a team being 1-0 up then having to play with 9 against 11 from 40 minutes onwards would have changed the game and it would have still ended 4-0? With one of the players who should have been sent off scoring twice... You really need to watch the highlights of all the incidents...

    PNE vs Pie Shaggers

    Knee high if you're a 3 foot dwarf maybe. Assume you mean Kipres sliding tackle on Nmecha, happened just infront of were we were sat, risky challenge but he got the ball, just.

    PNE vs Pie Shaggers

    The opening goal, Morsy kicks it clear and the ref sticks his leg out and knocks it back into our box. Fair enough Robinson and Walton should probably still have stopped it but without the refs block it would have been down near your keeper. It wasn't knee high from Gibson at all, replay...

    PNE vs Pie Shaggers

    Just seen the highlights. Even worse than i fucking thought. Never a red for Gibson and that penalty for Preston is laugahble. Bambi number 45 flopped to the floor like he did all game. Those 2 tackles were absolutely disgusting from Pearson and Robinson with intent to injure. How they escaped...

    PNE vs Pie Shaggers

    Both sides were dreadful. Our worsr performance of the season by far. Completely the wrong team selection and first sub. Worst officiating performance I've seen in nearly 30 years of watching football. Referee sticks his leg out and deflects the ball to a Preston player into the box and Preston...

    PNE vs Pie Shaggers

    First trip since 2005 to Preston for me. Missed the only visit since in 2016 as was in Canada. We tend to end clubs bad runs and our recent record against the old Lancashire sides is awful. So not confident despite the fact we've played well so far this season. A few attacking injuries have took...

    Match Day Wigan vs Bristol City

    Definitely a dull game, had a feeling with it being between 2 of the top 3 sides for created chances and it being on Sky that it would be a borefest with few chances, always happens doesn't it. Think 1-0 was the fair result, think Bristol City fans are being a bit harsh on their team, easily...

    Match Day Wigan vs Bristol City

    If we play like we have done at home all season, I'd fancy a win, however we have an abysmal record against Bristol City, we could sign Messi and Ronaldo for this one game and still lose, add that several of the first 11 expected to be out, would be happy with a point against a bogey team.

    Brentford v Wigan

    We're top of the XG Brentford are top of the XGA. We're statistically the top two performing sides this season, both look quite similar on paper, both have young sides and play high pressing, high tempo attacking football so you'd expect lots of goals as we're both the top 2 teams for creating...

    As far as an awful run of fixtures can go in this divison I'd definitely say that's it. You play the 3 newly relegated sides. 3 of the biggest spenders and a bang in form Leeds side. Bolton away is your easiest fixture and is a derby game. So I'd say you've probably got the hardest set of next...

    General Championship stuff including non-Midlands teams

    The xG graph based on performances so far, seen people mention it as useful last season when apparently Fulham were near the bottom of the league with Brentford but both were near the top of this graph and as the season went on climbed the table to match. Shows that Wigan, West Brom Norwich not...
