[Archived] Wigan Vs Blackburn Rovers

[only2garners]

cant decide whether to drive or get train on saturday. was thinking of the train, but how far is the station from the ground. i have my little one and dont want to be having a long hike with her in tow

It's about 15 minutes along the canal towpath. Fine for a fit adult but probably a long way for a little kid.

[cravenblue]

cheers, car it is then

[1864roverite]

Best bet, breezeblock junction then head over to Hindley via westhoughton and come down into the TC that way. 4 miles easy ride from the Oak pub.

[JAL]

I personally won't accept anything less than 3 points!

Got to keep my positive impressions up of the new regime

Sam, you seriously under estimate the opposition here, dont take anything for granted in this game, to do so is going to end in big, big, disappointment.

Underestimations be damned.

We need to grab them by the hairy ones and kick them in the arse.

They are like a leaky bucket as far as defence is concerned, we need to utilize that instead of worrying about the back. Attack constantly and vicously. Use their guts as grease for the couplings on our bus and their shirts to bandage our wounds. We should leave DW Stadium a smoking ruin full of WAGS sobbing over their mens loss of masculinity.

Resistance is futile.

[rovgers]

Tickets for this game now sold out at 7.15pm, the person in front of me got the last 4! D'oh!

[pick32]

could be worse liverpool have six defenders in the starting 11, agger, skrtel, johnson, kelly, aureleio and that greek donkey.

[Daremz]

After tonights loss vs Tottenham 2 things are clear:

We need to win.

We need to play Kalinic over Robert. Always.

[Tim Southampton Rover]

25 minutes to go in the Spurs game.

To be fair we don't really need to win but it would be nice, we are still 7 points outside the relegation zone aren't we?

[DE.]

7 points isn't as much as some people would like to believe. If we lose this one a few people who seem to already think we're safe could be in for a nasty surprise when they look at the table.

Kalinic must start. Roberts benched, please. N'Zonzi or even Grella must start ahead of Andrews. Formica hopefully to debut.

Got a bad feeling about this one. Hopefully we can pull out a result.

Three points if we play that formation.

[Bobby G]

Olsson has been excellent at left back in this new formation.

I would hope that Niko starts and that Formica is at least in the squad.

Pretty sure Jones will miss out, then Emo's legs in midfield would be useful.

MGP for Andrews FOR CERTAIN.

[only2garners]

I would hope that Niko starts and that Formica is at least in the squad.

Somewhat unlikely given Kean's comments last night that both Formica and Rochina are 2/3 weeks away from being ready. Formica hasn't played for 5 weeks.

[romeington]

I've tried sending you a message but can't do for whatever reason. Is this still up for grabs then? I'll be at the match tonight as well. If you let me know I'll send you my mobile number. Cheers man.

Sorry had issues with my computer too. It is still here if you want it i can post it next day delivery and you will have it tomorow if you still want it? I will send it from work so it doesnt cost anything to send. Let me Know asap £5

Anyone got a spare in block NS3 I could buy of them?

Could do with an extra. I'm in row F but not too worried if the other seat isnt too close. Ticket office have sold out that block now and are selling the seats 2 blocks away.

Hi its in NS3 do you want it?

[Bobby G]

Didnt find his comments so I guess I stand corrected.

So none of our January signings will be available in the next couple of weeks at the very least. Unless Jones is back involved sooner than it looked with his back injury.

Totally agree with that!

Anyway, I hope he doesn't use either Roberts or Andrews...

I wish Formica is in the squad for this match, probably not, but it would be great to give him some time at the end of the match when we lead 3-0

[Mattyblue]

Really looking forward to this.

Got to the ticket office just as the sold out signs went up, scrambled a ticket with a coach of Darreners, phew!

[cloggyjimmybrfc]

in hindsight I would have brought warnock back to cover givet if injured...as we need.olsson running freely down the left...hoillett and olsson attacking freely would make us more urgent attacking.last night we were painfully slow.....

[Guest Walshy]

Saturday is going to be quality, we will out sing the Wigan fans 10 fold and I hope we can get all 3 points as well.

Kean hopeful J Jones fit for Saturday

What's that about?

I even asked the girl at the ticket office for one on its own.

Good to see we've sold out.

Rovers website says 4500 ticket allocation although there are 5392 seats in the North Stand plus a further 21 disabled places.

Even allowing for a bit of segregation, I think anyone wanting to buy on the day would be let in.
