Think us and Wigan are well matched. They'll do enough to take top spot I think, our battle is with Shrewsbury and Rotherham.

I agree, Saxo.
Different styles but evenly matched.
At times, we get a little out-muscled - Lenihan excepted, of course!
Agreed, but Wigan still need to play all these games, in a short space of time. That could work against them. They could easily slip up in a few games. We looked a much better footballing side, with class. They looked big, hard and physical. With nobody showing any intent on the ball, looking to hurt us. The only time they had any success was when they went long ball, direct.
Had we someone like Harry Chapman to come on with 30 mins to go, we'd have likely finished them off.
Once he is back, he will be another who will make a huge difference to us, like Lenihan has.
While I want us to strive to win the league, lets not forget how much we have been pushed this season. By at least 2 other sides, all season long. 2 teams go up automatically, and if we finished second, then its fine.
Good to see two decent sides go at one another. I haven't seen many Prem games where 2 inform sides go into battle like that for 90 mins! It was a very decent game for Div 1.
