    Is that fleck who is leaving us to go up to the championship but has never really excelled in this league the odd flash but mostly mediocrity - will be 25 in summer and at some point has to live up to his potential or is it just hype - 7 goals in 4 seasons

    Wigan Match Thread

    Fortune apprently has had some good games so he's OK to take it easy for the rest of the season. For all his hold up play he is a striker that doesn't ever look like scoring, hope he's released at the end of the seeason.

    The phone in!!

    Fair play to juggy concentrated on the people running our club, faceless incompetent owners, ticket office shambles, Chris anderson revering to type talking about projects, raising expectations then weeks later contradicting these statements. Unfortunately this club won't move forward until...

    I don't think they are priming the club to be taken over by a billionaire but its a remote outcome that might lead to them getting some of their money back. In order to prime us for such a sale it would require some investment and forward thinking which isn't their modus operandi. Cash neutral...

    I still think a part of their strategy is to hoping to get a billionaire to buy the club for £20m. Highly unlikely to happen but I'm sure its discussed as potential outcomes to rid themselves of this loss making investment. More likely is another couple of years of court c ases apeals etc..and...

    Wigan

    Remember a game against them in 2005, a night game we were in the bottom 3 they were top, we lost 2-1 but it wasn't that close. The teams including the transfer fees. Seems like it was money well spent, Jewel had been in the role for 4 seasons to achieve 2 promotions. 4 years after relegation...

    Wigan

    Don't knock being bankrolled, imagine the season we could have3 had had we spent £1m on transfer fees as well as securing a few of the loans and freebies that we got. £1m is hardly being bankrolled but makes a huge difference in this league. My fear is that the nature of our season it will...

    Wigan

    Anyone go to the cup replay in 1991 at their old ground - Springfield Park. It rained we won 1-0 and there was a grassy bank where loads of our fans slid over on celebrating our goal. Ny only other significant Wigan memory is Scott Shearer throwing the ball in the net at Highfield Road for a...

    What have they got and we haven't?

    "Without Armstrong and Murphy we'd be bottom of the pile and they won't be here next season." - the most worrying thing about next season. Its a squad that doesn't score goals and is devoid of pace when them 2 go.

    Could we ever see SISU ...

    Not sure Thorne was any worse than CC or Aidy Boothroyd, everyone forecast relegation at the start of the 2011/12 season based on the poor squad and that was delivered, there was little done to improve the squad during the season, especially selling our top goalscorer whilst at the bottom of the...

    The stadium consultancy group - what a farce, our owners are promoting this whilst up the road they have owners that truely invested in the club and are now reaping the rewards.

    Our downfall

    This doesn't explain our downfall but we failed to maximise our points return despite dominating games, Swindon away, oldham at home, Sheffield away, southend at home at least 9 points lost there. Also tas stated earlier the mix in our team needs to change to ensure we have a few more...

    Any Burton players you would like here next season?

    Without wanting to go off topic our revolving door of players since we were relegated has just given the club an air of short-term and unstable. Two years ago this is the matchday squad v Crewe away Coventry City: Murphy (c), Adams (Marshall 75), Webster, Seaborne, Clarke, Willis, Thomas...
