Does that not mean to do things in the wrong order. Win and keep winning is the correct order. And I don’t care who provides that order.

If we win our first game and carry on winning , I don’t care who plays.

How do you know that Wharton has not improved with his loan experience

Total agreement.

I would not make a judgement until they have played.

We do have strikers besides Armstrong. As you state though the manager insists on playing them out of position. His inadequacy, not theirs.

Are any of our friendlies start Up pilots?

History says yes.

Which Christmas?

Might be something to do with when the money is paid and is accountable? Does seem weird otherwise.

To me that is inconsistency, not shite. That is something else a good manager may be able to affect.

Some times motivating players is part of the managers job, perhaps some of the blame lies there.

I would say Johnson is unmotivated rather than shite. When he first arrived he looked impressive.

That’s because he is not a keeper

Totally agree, the only real changes are at centerback in a defence that leaked 60 goals anyway, and replacing a keeper that most people have slated. The way we play will be more influential on where we finish in the league.

No team needs two 1st team keepers. It’s probably nice to have. But it is not a need

Ideally I would like to see us sign experienced defenders, but just maybe,we have no money to do that. And in the words of Souness we have to piss with the cock we have.

Because it is free to try him, if he works, all well and good, if not try something else. We probably have to go down that route because of finances

I remember when it was crazy to think of Wigan as a league club.

And the band played on.

So, much the same as every close season.

But can he defend ?

That will stitch up the defence!

No ! The topic was about what Team we could field given no incoming players (which could well be the case) not our aspirations for next season.

If we are just plucking random thoughts out of the ether. Wouldn’t be relegated.
