Bit of an advantage for Wigan

[ParkerAteMyKebab]

No League Cup game for them next week.
I'd take a disappointing hammering at Wolves if it kept us fresh for the Saturday.

The Wolves game is being played and will be at least 90 minutes long. Win lose whatever, how does losing keep the team any fresher than winning?

Wolves are in a disorganized state at the moment so let’s have a go. Winning could set up a nice home tie

By putting out a second team I imagine.

Yes, but that doesn’t give Wigan an advantage, if we put a second team out, if we have a second team available, the first team would be fresh.

Critchley will make 6 or 7 changes, hopefully a chance to get minutes into more of the squad and work on the system. I'm looking forward to a trip to Molyneux, hopefully we can produce another good cup performance.

One instance where you would take a 0-0 draw and pens.

Didnt look disorganised away to United.

I heard on the radio yesterday that they have had 47 shots in their opening two games, sounds like a combination of poor finishing, good goalkeeping and bad luck has gone against them!

Watched MOTD at the weekend and their defending was at times comical, even Shearer noticed how bad they were. They'll be putting out their second string against a league 1 side that can't score anyway.

"Looking forward to a trip to Molyneux" is an oxymoron.

Nice stadium, some premier league players for our lads to go up against and a chance to make it to round 3. What's not to like about that?

Critchley will be using that with the squad...

"See lads, shooting gets you nowhere. Now, sideways passing drills everyone...."

I doubt he'll risk Lavs. We're royally fucked without him. Probs stick Dale next to bees and give Thommo a game.

 

[tigger]

Do they still have that terrifying underpass with “WOLVES SUBWAY KILLERS” scrawled down the side ??

You've obviously never been.

The second team were the last team to win.

 

[Graves]

I think we’ll get battered and then be sort of glad to be out of the cup.

 

[NewburyOne]

You've obviously never been.

Several times, the newly developed Molyneux is getting better. Wolverhampton is a different matter.

7 Portuguese players? This is the nearest we'll get to a European cup tie

It will be like playing Brazil.

Be hilarious after missing out the likes of Apter if they went on to win
