    Matchday Thread:Wigan v Derby

    Sorry for late posting

    Anyone venturing up today? I suspect it’s a rare non sell out in the away end, especially at £30 a pop

    Result anyone?

    Doubts over NML’s fitness and there must be temptation to have him fit against Posh. Against not so posh Wigan I’d hope for at least a point and all 3 if NML is fit and Nyambe returns. 1-1 without NML...1-2 with him.

    NML starts as do Wilson and Nyambe. Fornah and Ward drop to the bench. 2 nil win.

    3 days ago there were less than 80 tickets left for Rams fans. Wigan have announced pay on the gate is available..

    We grind out another 1-0, that will do! Shame those around us also won, but its tight up at the top of League 1.

    Neither of the top 2won, but the next 5 all did. I'll take that. Win game inn hand and only 3 points off Pompey.... Automatic promotion is in our own hands...win out and we go up!

    Excellent 1st half and Wigan were poor. They were better 2nd half but managed no shots on target.

    Back 4 very good, Wildsmith had 0 saves to make, no poor performances from Derby today.

    Lots of cards again. Clare's should have been his 2nd and off for an early bath. How McHugh wasn't booked for that 1st minute clattering he gave out is a mystery. 2 minutes later Hourihane booked for a similar tackle. CHs was a correct decision, McHugh's wasn't.

    On to Oxford for the first of 2 "six pointers". UTR.

    Should have had it won by ht...but a very good win and yes...a fine run.
    Can we extend it against Oxford? Tbh, after the equivalent home fixture back in August I didn’t think we’d be within ten points of Oxford by the midway (ish) mark but we’ve improved and they’ve lost their manager...so fingers crossed.

    Errrrm, we were 1-0 up at halftime. The final score was 1-0. By my reckoning therefore, surely we did have it won by half time?

    Captain pedantic strikes again!
    As you well know...you’ve never got a game won when you lead by just one goal until the final whistle is blown, but if you prefer...we should’ve been out of sight by ht.
