Sat 30th Janaury - Wigan Athletic

Yep,  I was right.  A really poor first half performance followed with a stunning Keates equaliser set this one up nicely.  Wave after wave of Walsall pressure followed and the Wigan goal somehow remained intact.  Andy Watson being the main culprit twice when scoring would have been easier and almost to order Wigan stole it. Stuart Barlow won it with his fifth goal in three games against the Saddlers and he is becoming a rival to David Reeves in the 'he always seem to score against us' stakes. 

Both goals were bad ones to lose but when Walker and Pointon both cost you a goal in the same ninety minutes then you probably realise that today wasn’t meant to be.  As for the rest of the game please refer to any Wigan v Walsall report you have ever read.

Lancaster Gate-gate gets another outing when England manager Glenn Hoddle upsets disabled people everywhere by suggesting they were meant to be like they were because of sins in a previous life. This is in direct contrast to Mr Hoddle’s own position being suddenly under threat because he’s been unable to keep schtum in this life and ended up having his very own David Icke moment.

Fulham and PNE both win again. I reckon that at the moment they could play each other and both would still win. PNE remind me of Chesterfield in our promotion season.

The Spireites put a big run together and almost ran out of time to finally blow up. They did though and Preston will hopefully be capable of doing the same thing. I’m not sure what their current form is exactly but they do seem to get results. I really wouldn’t be surprised if they put fifteen or twenty games together and took one of the automatic spots. In saying this they’ll lose on Saturday.
