I am tempted to pay for a video pass - it's a kind of horrible fascination though rather than any expectation. Not that I'll see much watching through my fingers...

On the other hand, I may wait until the team is announced, and decide to just listen!
 
It's like Bolton again from last season, however "bad" Wigan are, after the rubbish served up by kr this season, I can only see a 2-0 home win. This is a must win game, looking at where they sit in the league.
If we keep playing the loan player up front then possibly true.
 
A must win for KR. Wigan have been beyond poor since the opening day, we should be playing with plenty of attacking threat.

Forde Moore Long Obita
Henry Gorrin Sykes
Clare Taylor Agyei

3 wingers down each side, start playing some triangles and get at them. A side which would stop boring me to death...
Don’t forget Atkinson is back and I’m confident he will be starting

I keep saying I won’t buy another away pass, think I might give it one more go this weekend.

my sentiments exactly, well almost exactly @ZeroTheHero

damn lockdown2 ! .... pre lockdown1 I was booked to play 2 DJ sets at Three Clubs Allnighter ( at Wigan Old Courts near Wigan train station)- which was confirmed as cancelled at the start of lockdown2,.... Damn covid, damn lockdown2,dammit all... if the pandemic was under control etc, Idve set off for Wigan early tomorrow morning, spent a few hours in the Anchor alehouse Standish (north Wigan) gone to the match, then onto work later, after a couple of post match/ pre work tipples in the old courts bar.... instead, decide whether to opt for ifollow video pass or to only tune in to radio Oxford.... after Tuesday nights showing, the latter is ( currently)the most likely option.... come 2.45pm tomorrow, I may, just may mind, succumb to the (unstable & unpredictable) option of an ifollow video pass

I share your dilemma, Sarge. We could all do with a bit of Northern Soul at present.

Happy memories of Wigan, you, me and bunch of others, I seem to recall, got a bus up to the Casino for the all nighter. I might have just imagined this of course! (substance abuse - just say no! ;) :whistle: )

Having already said we wouldn't pay again, we have. And will, no doubt, regret it come 5pm tomorrow. It's what we do though, no matter what, we are there (in a manner of speaking) to witness the worst that the team can throw at us.
Talking to my Swin*on supporting postie this morning and he is the same boat. His wife has instructed him to either stop watching, go upstairs or learn to control himself - after that comedy goal from their keeper he's finding it hard!
 
The Wigan MDT will appear as magic at 1 minute past 12 tonight. And this while my head will be lying on my pillow.
Oh these 'puters have a future I'm sure.
 
Hate Wigan. The 0-7 obviously. But also the away game that year Tuesday night we held on for 87 minutes proper defensive rearguard action then Carroll missed and grigg scored.
 
Stevens
Long - Moore - Atkinson
Clare - Sykes - Gorrin - Forde - Obita
Agyei - Taylor

Assuming Atkinson is back.

Don't think Wigan will score 7 again tomorrow. I'm guessing 8.
 
Previewing tomorrow's football Jerome had just referred to 'struggling Sw*nd*n T*wn' 😁
