Am looking forward to seeing Kpakio and Reindorf today

I'd love Reindorf on the bench on Sunday, he'd thrive on the atmosphere I think.

What time is KO please lads?

I'd like to see Kpakio and Giles involved more in the first team squad.

I'd also like to see Reindorf starting for the first team.

Wigan getting on top. Quick control and hit first time (16) Oscar Harris to left

1-2

89 mins 1-3

Nice individual effort Nyankuwha slotted under the diving keeper

A good performance by the under 21s. With the exception of the last ten minutes they totally controlled the game. Got tired towards the end but the third goal put the result beyond doubt.

Much has been said about Purse but, to his credit, was constantly encouraging the lads today and came into the stand after the game to thank us for coming up - even if it was only 2 mins for me!

Away support: 4 (me, Jimmy_rat and his two kids)

Good performances by Reindorf and Giles. Dakarai Mafico held the middle well. Kpakio was quiet but what he did he did well.

Good all round performance

Fair play, good win today.

Credit where due to Purse, but now he has to build on it with more wins.

Ned,


Agreed and funny even Purse asked for wins from the players, yet many on here use to say it does not matter if we lose every game.

Everyone wants to be a winner and that is how life / football runs.

Nice to meet you today. Away fans definitely made the most noise!

Impressed with a few of them and we were definitely the better team. Bit more composure and we could've had 5 or 6.

Purse a gentleman too coming over to thank us at the end.

Also, well done Wigan. Good little set up and entertained the kids (and me) for a few hours. Helps being local too Paul.

Yeah good to meet you. Let's keep an eye open for more matches up this way

With the development league we’re in I think we’ll play North West teams like Crewe, Burnley and the two Sheffield clubs

I am of course assuming that’s the area you live in!

Yep I'm in centre of Wigan.
