Hmmm, not sure about that. Sack Coyle and pay up his fat contract. Pay Palace compensation to get a Coyle clone. Spend £300k on a striker to sit in the stands.

Nothing has changed.

Wigan wage bill £37m.

BWFC wage bill £54m.



Wigan Premier League and will stay (at least for another season or two) and made a profit of over £5m. last season.

Bolton Wanderers bottom half of Championship and sinking. Lost over £10m. last season'



Petrov gone, this follows the departure of Cahill and Al Habsi.

Meanwhile Knight was out of contract but persuaded to come back with a two contract.

The temporary management team banished him. They in turn were removed and a replacement brought in with the rest of his outfit. Knight was brought back from the wilderness and made captain (in the absence of SKD) with the expected results.

The chairman, I understand to be earning over £600,000pa plus bonus (even in a relegation year) is responsible for these ludacris decisions but somehow waltzes through it all without anyone questioning his ability.

Ludacris?

One game and you've decided that already.

Craig Davies isn't match fit, get that into your head, Natasha

He'll be homesick and addicted to Twitter next.

Why? He's been playing all season and is as match fit as anyone else in our squad as far as I know. I'd believe a lot of things but not being match fit doesn't ring true.

He played for Barnsley 17 days ago. How unfit can a professional footballer get in that time?

He should have been on the bench on Saturday, anyone who can't understand that obviously has no idea about the impact of a new signing.

There's something else going on. DF says CD not available until the weekend. Note: "not available" as opposed to "not match fit".

Shame Gregus hasn't been cleared yet as the cup would be a good opportunity to see what we've got.

Think you're reading into it too much.

You almost seem to be implying DF's lying about his fitness and there's another reason he's missed one match?

He is cup tied.

He wasn't cup tied for the Millwall game. I just think it's very strange indeed, especially when the player expected to be in the squad.

I'm not implying DF is lying - I'm questioning how CD can not be match fit when he has played all season. Maybe BWFC match fit is not the same as Barnsley match fit in DFs opinion? Maybe "match fit" implies being integrated into the team's style of playing? I don't know but it does seem strange.

We do it Gangplank style.

I think some of you are reading too much into CD not being in the team on saturday, DF said after the game that he hasn't played a part in Barnsleys last 2 games and wasn't at the right fitness levels he was required to be, plus he can't play tonight due to him not being in the team against Sunderland.

Some of you make out like it's a bloody area 51 conspiracy.

Well said aaron!
