whittles left foot Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 What is it with Latics fans? They always seem to have to have a player they loath-it was Banks, now Gardner seems to be the butt of their abuse-and it is abuse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sorry but i cant let that go without replying- Where is the abuse? No-one is abusing him, im sure hes a good bloke, but he isn't good enough. And Wellens needs to get a grip playing him every friggin week!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewBlue Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 We’re garbage without the loanees. No quality whatsoever. Holloway and Davies isn’t a combination - former far outplayed the latter. He’ll get stick for the misses but the keeper made a couple of good saves. Tope is a chancer and I don’t want to see him in our side after Jan. Fane excellent again but he can’t lift the ball off the ground. Goal was piss poor but we defended reasonably well in general - they just had the quality to produce when we had a lapse. 4-4-2 suited us far better. Probably had something to do with Gardner coming off. He should be embarrassed when he looks back at the goal. In truth he looks lost without runners. First time I’ve seen our fans stand all match as well. Enjoyed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dec666 Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Decent effort second half but a frightening lack of quality. Pringle isn't going to have to do much next week to look exceptional after that Obadeyi performance today... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that is just somebody expressing an opinion but to me at least, the club has signed three, possibly four players already, so something must be moving in the right direction, one would hope.

If Latics were that bad, both Shrewsbury and Charlton would have scored more than one goal...unless you are saying they are also garbage, but the table suggests otherwise. Additions are needed and Wellens nhas to get them out of the losing mentality. It is possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlossopLatic Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Having not been Im happy it was only 1 - 0 I was expecting a mullering. You are always going to struggle if you take 5-6 out of any team. We need a similar number coming in and lets not dick about lets get this done both the takeover and the signings done A.S.A.P.

rigsby Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 We have to hope there will be recruits..think we all know that. The problem here is any recruits will be coming into a side very low on confidence. That will not make it easy for them.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveecky Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 The performances generally seem ok, but with neither the strikers nor midfielders having much of a goal scoring record it’s going to be a long cold winter. Unless those coming in know where the net is! I’ve concluded that Holloway will never score more than 7 a season - it’s not in his DNA.

HarryBosch Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 I agree Gardner was shocking today and he's been getting gradually worse for several games. Let's not forget he was decent earlier in the season though. I imagine he was one of the one's RW was alluding to after Shrewsbury when he said he'd got a hell of a lot out of certain players but they can't keep it up and that's why they've played their whole careers at this end of League One. I wouldn't write him off. Hopefully he can have a bit of a breather if Pringle and others come in this week and come back the player he was earlier in the season. Charlton were shite today and there for the taking even with our bare bones lineup. Tope was unbelievably frustrating - he looked great with the ball at his feet twisting, turning & running until he passed, crossed or shot every one of which was utter toss Maouche looked alright, worth another go. Davies shocking, Holloway not much better. Placide could, arguably, have done better with their goal but was very good again otherwise. Gardner got done for me rather than being as weak as some are making out. It happens, and the lad went on to jink his way to a quality finish. RW wanted to sign him and that showed us why. Gerrard didn't have his best game and was bailed out once or twice by JP. That said AG bailed a team mate out more than once. Gevaro his usual 7/10. Onto Green - for all the shit Banks got and Gardner is now getting how has he avoided it for a season and a half? Is he the first ever footballer whose game is breaking up his own teams play rather than the oppositions? It was most noticeable at Gillingham when (I think) he replaced Byrne but move after move just stops whenever the ball reaches him. And he's not particularly good at the defensive side either. What is he? If that Crewe rumour has any substance could we send them some PlayerShare money? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? A 1-0 defeat is exactly what I was expecting (well not exactly - I said 2-0 in the Prediction League). Charlton on a bad run. Latics with absolutely no attacking power whatsoever. All Charlton needed to do was score. Read a few people saying pre-match "it would be typical Latics to win this". No - typical Latics is huffing and puffing but ultimately losing 1-0.
