Wigan Athletic Post Match Thoughts

[Scum-Triumphant]

Hugill would have been useful in League One, but out of his depth in the Championship, three year contract looks like a mistake.

He has been an empty shirt for the last 5 games. Are Eaves and Kelly that bad that they didn’t warrant a start over a sick Hugill

People in glasshouses and all that.but just heard bbc Manchester on bbc sounds after game yesterday and said rotherham may get fined for fielding and an under strength team….don’t know if he was on a wind up or deflecting from their issues but get your own house in order before casting aspersions without knowledge...

The jealousy for us is just astounding ��

The starting line up was not breaking any rule whatsoever, infact there was no rule broke anywhere, we only had the three youngsters on bench to which one came on.

Wigan had 11 academy players on that team sheet apparently so maybe they’re confused

I don’t really think they thought anyone from a rotherham persuasion would hear it..a bit of sour grapes maybe…🥲🥲

Yes it definitely wasn’t the party I was expecting but not really a surprise how the game went tbh, but no Frog that wasn’t a glimps of what would’ve been coming with five games to go because for starters there’s no way them youngsters would’ve been on bench never mind fetching on and we wouldn’t have rested certain players even if they weren’t fit they would’ve been in the line up

You've misread Millertop.

I was refering to future seasons when we're safe with 5 matches to go. 5 matches with nowt to play for is a worry for me as a spectator.

I think that with 5 games to go and safety assured then it will be a chance to blood more kids but as a spectacle it would have to be more exciting than yesterdays match.

Oh yes I get that Frog and I’d be worried about it too

It would be a bit rich if there were accusations of an under strength Millers team from the opposition
This from the bbc website

Maloney stacked his substitutes' bench with seven academy players and handed league debuts to 21-year-old goalkeeper Sam Tickle and Anthony Scully.

Bit of a damp squib yesterday, particularly the 311 mile round trip in atrocious weather. Wigan's stadium is looking jaded and the seats were obviously built for the visiting vertically challenged supporters of Bolton. Furthermore, it's a dreadful place to get to and away from.

I was looking forward to a relaxed day with no pressure on the result. In retrospect, last season's trip to Gillingham surpassed it by a country mile. These dead rubbers are not for me!

Bring on next season, and let's get down to some proper competition!
