Rob182 Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 I wonder why SSN are predicting our team to be - Friedel, Luke Young, Cuellar, Dunne, Warnock, Reo-Coker, Milner, Petrov, Downing, Agbonlahor, Carew I don't recall Ash being injured/doubtful :s Is this just SSN and their super reporters forgetting one of our key players?

CottenM Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 I wonder why SSN are predicting our team to be - Friedel, Luke Young, Cuellar, Dunne, Warnock, Reo-Coker, Milner, Petrov, Downing, Agbonlahor, Carew I saw this also and was a little confused, Ash certainly won't be dropped, i wouldn't be against Reo getting a game though... In the article it says Luke Young missed training with a slight niggle (but should be fine to play). Maybe they have the Youngs mixed up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stato Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 They probably just looked at our lineup for the last league game v Liverpool which Ash was suspended for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the article it says Luke Young missed training with a slight niggle (but should be fine to play). Maybe they have the Youngs mixed up? Yeah that was my guess.. I, like everyone else, think we need to win this! We've dropped points against the smaller teams and we can't keep our grasp on the top 4 if we continue! I'm predicting a 2-0 win and a similar game to the Sunderland league game. Villa dominating with Wigan having a few chances. Us to out class them when it comes to finishing and defending. 1-0 by 50 mins, 2-0 by the 70th ! Friedel L Young Dunne Cuellar Warnock Downing Milner Stan A Young Gabby Heskey (if he slips over in the snow on the way to the DW - then Carew to replace Heskey) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMduck Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Feeling really confident for this one. Don't know why. 3-0 villa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob182 Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 We'd be gutted if we lost (or even drew) and it would knock our confidence.. Imagine how it'd effect us if we won 9-0 !! (not saying it'd be positive... just saying, it'd effect us) Gabby 4, Carew 1, Milner 1, Ash 2, Dunne 1 What a lovely day that'd be! :winkold: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiganvillain Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Feeling really confident for this one. Don't know why. 3-0 villa.

stato Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 ****. Wigan Athletic have called a pitch inspection tomorrow morning, Saturday, at 8.30am after the undersoil heating at the DW Stadium failed this evening, Friday. Following the inspection, match referee Stuart Atwell will decide whether the Barclays Premier League match at home to Aston Villa can go ahead. The game was all set to go ahead after the club spent thousands of pounds on preparing the area around the stadium with extensive gritting and snow clearing over the past few days, and an inspection yesterday deemed that the area was safe to stage the match. However, having been functioning day and night on full power virtually constantly since prior to the postponed Barclays Premier League against Bolton Wanderers on December 21st, over two weeks ago, the undersoil heating at the stadium developed a malfunction tonight, around 5.00pm. Engineers have been on site attempting to repair the fault but as yet, they have not been successful. The club now has no option but to wait until tomorrow morning. Manager Roberto Martinez says he is extremely frustrated, but has to accept that the game is now in serious doubt. He said: "I have to congratulate our safety team at the stadium who have worked tirelessly to try and clear the area of ice and snow over the past few days. Our ground staff have also spent several nights at the stadium making the sure the pitch remained playable. "We have to keep our fingers crossed that tonight's frost is not too severe, but a final decision rests with the referee." News from of tomorrow's inspection will be released immediately the outcome is known. Link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
