[Archived] Wigan Athletic v Blackburn Rovers-Match Preview

[Kendalrover]

Does anyone know why the Venkys left their baby at half time. According to Kaen on Radio lancashire he is due to meet then either tonight or tomorrow so they must still be in the country

[super_arran]

You got me wrong brother, you said he didn't know that Yak hadnt touched the ball, I reckon his reaction showed he did know.

I don't give a shiny ###### if he cheated or not if he can get away with it.

I apologise

[savage90]

KEAN OUT FOR GOD'S SAKE! HE IS A JOKE. WE HAVE 7 POINTS, WHERE DO VENKY'S THINK WE ARE GOING. MORONS.

[Waggy76]

Today was the end , at half time we should have 5 - 1 down (Pedersens free kick maybe 2) it was absolutely disgraceful...

2nd half with 10 men we did better and probably deserved a point only because Wigan should have put us to bed in first half, but let us not get carried away with the comeback, we were shocking !!!

Wigan were quicker and stronger all over the pitch , I stayed till the end ,also wanted the Yak to score the penalty because if he had have missed BRFC were relegated ..

Please Please VENKYS sack Kean

[Mike Graham]

did anyone see the ###### punch glen? said the guy threatening him assaulted him before the game.

Does anyone know who the wally is who had a go at Glen?

[sentient]

Well you'd be "careful" wouldn't you?

I need to get a life because I'm quite grateful that we went away with a "cheaters" point?

Alright then....

So, personally; if you could, would you have the goal taken away and settle for a loss because of the way it happened?

wtf!? I never mentioned the game or result but welcome every single point that we win ... we ain't got anywhere near enough though. Just sick of you complaining about the complainers. "complainer squared" - is that how we should know you?

So you're not annoyed that people are complaining about us scoring a controversial goal?

A goals a goal. And a goal for Rovers no matter how its scored is even better.

How can you not complain about the people whinging about it??

Well this is the Wigan thread, so how about talking about the game and result instead of trying to wind people up

[super_arran]

Careful you don't get a nosebleed Arran

super_Arran - out of interest, do you think he is the right man to take us forward?

You have clearly been quite kean on him for some time now (excuse the pun).

Not based on todays performance.

It's hit and miss.

We play well against the bigger teams but never seem to get the results which gives me hope that if we play like that against the so called lesser teams; then we'll be alright.

But then we play absolute kack against the poorer teams and the doom and gloom sets in.

That's ^^ always been my viewpoint.

[beerwins]

What kind of owners leave half way through a match??

And people call the riversiders who go a few minutes early! we have owners that cant even watch a full game of football from the club they own.

I hope to God they were on the first plane to Qatar to give their baby up for adoption because with parents like these you would wish you had'nt been born at all.

[arbitro]

I'm not sure if it's been reported on here yet but Rovers only turned up at the ground at 14.10 today. Exchange of team sheets should be an hour before kick off so a heavy fine looms for that (unless somebody ran ahead with them to make the 14.00 deadline). I heard they stayed overnight at Haydock Island but somebody should have done their homework as Haydock races were on today. Sadly I can't blame the imposter for this but it seems that somebody will carry the can for this massive oversight. The silver lining though was that it gave me an opportunity to shout at the imposter telling him to resign. Impossible I know but it made me feel better. Preparation has to be affected in such circumstances.

Dunn was a disgrace today and fully deserved to be sent off. His first caution was so stupid and I actually said at the time that this could come back and bite us. Totally and utterly reckless and selfish. Blue and white my a*rse.

What really annoyed me today was that only one player came to the fans at the end of the game. Take a bow Robbo, your passion at the end of the game is something I will feed off in the next few weeks. My feeling was that the lack of gratitude and acknowledgement by the players to us was a show of solidarity by the players because we were chanting Kean and Venkys out. If that is the case then they can all f**k off.

Not based on todays performance.

Why would you base it on today's performance?

Didn't the other 32 games tell you anything?

I swear you just argue for the sake of it.

[Neal]

Anyone see Steve Kean steal Paul Robinsons applause at the end of the game???!!!!!!..... What a slime ball that piece of work really is. I actually HATE the man with every ounce of my body.

He gestured with his fists in the air to were the owners would have been as if we'd won!!!!!

Like we (the fans) should be happy with a point against WIGAN ATHLETIC!!!!

Totally disgusted.

[Tom]

Did I meet you today Tom? I was a bit worse for wear so I canne recall?

On the game, two very poor teams that will be down there all season.

Only briefly pal I was with Ste B at halftime.

Heard it kicked off a bit in the Anvil is this where Glen got assualted?

The rest of my post answers your question

Wish they wouldn't call us their "baby" for many reasons - none the least of which is the fact that our club predates the involvement of their chicken/pharma empire by nearly a century!

[wandel77]

Do we practice defence at all ?

I have only seen highlights of the match, but awful defending on all the goals, and we very lucky with MGP cornor which lead to Hoiletts goal.

KEAN OUTKean Out !

Not stealing applause, antagonising !

[savage90]

This is a Wigan team who have looked pretty much terrible against all other teams so far. Yet they still dominate us. We are better than this but not under Kean.

[beerwins]

Maybe because of the contempt that Kean has for the fans it is now rubbing off on the players, the manager sets the example for the players.

[Gav]

Not stealing applause, antagonising !

He's clearly telling the fans to F**k off in that picture for me, arrogant ****

[Audax]

You don't often see 3-3 draws. Blackburn has been in the 2 such draws this season in the PL.

[RoyRover]

* Who gave the Raos grieve at half-time - a legend in the making

Did this actually happen? Was it just some supporter telling them what a complete ###### they have made of the club? Fair play to him if this did happen! There's no way the owners were missing the Kean Out chants today. It won't make a bit of difference though.

[Neal]

By the way....

GLEN MULLEN WAS ASSAULTED BY ANOTHER ROVERS FAN TODAY.

I'm sure he wouldn't mention it for fear of cynical Rovers fans having a go at him for standing up for OUR club.

BUT I WILL MENTION IT and I KNOW EXACTLY WHO YOU ARE.

Standard behaviour i suppose giving the intelligence of some of our fans. I hope you read this just so you know you're a RACIST, HATEFUL, SCUMBAG.

R.I.P. B.R.F.C.

Yeah I can remember that just about, I was mid rant I think!

I was in the Anvil for a god while before and after the game, didn't see any kick offs?
