Colinjb Posted 11 May, 2013 Author Posted 11 May, 2013 (edited) McManaman should have made it 1-0 Wigan there. Wigan are playing nicely so far. Edited 11 May, 2013 by Colinjb
Dr Who? Posted 11 May, 2013 Posted 11 May, 2013 The last 19 years of cup finals only on 4 occasions have both team scored, and only once has this been more than one goal by one team. 3-3 west ham v Liverpool. Just shows how one sided the cup final has become! Between 1994 and 2005 12 cup finals only one of these both teams scored in.
Dr Who? Posted 11 May, 2013 Posted 11 May, 2013 Forgot that Wigan won at Arsenal last season! They are looking better than city at the moment!
Colinjb Posted 11 May, 2013 Author Posted 11 May, 2013 Never mind my bet, Wigan deserve to win this..... Come on you Latics!!!!
Colinjb Posted 11 May, 2013 Author Posted 11 May, 2013 Everyone enjoying it? It's not a rip-roaring classic, but nice football being played.
Crab Lungs Posted 11 May, 2013 Posted 11 May, 2013 It's ok. Man city been a bit disappointing really They're always disappointing. Mancini is a d0gsh1t coach.
CB Saint Posted 11 May, 2013 Posted 11 May, 2013 Hoping for a really gruelling extra time. Couldn't care less who won.
mulletsaint Posted 11 May, 2013 Posted 11 May, 2013 Fair do's Wigan have been the better team so far. ET please.
Colinjb Posted 11 May, 2013 Author Posted 11 May, 2013 Zabaletta off....... Red Card Now it gets VERY interesting.
Dr Who? Posted 11 May, 2013 Posted 11 May, 2013 Man city have been poor most of he season, god knows how they are 2nd
dubai_phil Posted 11 May, 2013 Posted 11 May, 2013 Crazy last 20 minutes. Well done Wigan & Ben Watson Shut the door on your way out Mancini
Lighthouse Posted 11 May, 2013 Posted 11 May, 2013 Mancini out? Being hopelessly outclassed by Utd wont have pleased the owners this season. That might just have done it for him. Fantastic, magical end to a cup final. Delighted for Wigan. They are (hopefully) going down but wow.
scotty Posted 11 May, 2013 Posted 11 May, 2013 Well done Wigan. Now sit back and relax until wednesday
Colinjb Posted 11 May, 2013 Author Posted 11 May, 2013 So pleased for them. Our own league campaign is paling at the moment. Superb for Wigan.... superb for football! So pleased for them.
melmacian_saint Posted 11 May, 2013 Posted 11 May, 2013 Get in Wigan!! hahaha Beautiful stuff, football has happened today!
CB Saint Posted 11 May, 2013 Posted 11 May, 2013 Irritating fact - no one has ever won the fa cup and been relegated in the same season.
Dr Who? Posted 11 May, 2013 Posted 11 May, 2013 Irritating fact - no one has ever won the fa cup and been relegated in the same season. I think they will stay up, but not at our cost!
Colinjb Posted 11 May, 2013 Author Posted 11 May, 2013 I think they will stay up, but not at our cost! Puts our game tomorrow into context....
Dr Who? Posted 11 May, 2013 Posted 11 May, 2013 Arsenal have drawn there last 2 home games, and the one before that were pretty terrible and 0-1 down to Norwich until the last few minutes.
Colinjb Posted 11 May, 2013 Author Posted 11 May, 2013 Paul Scharner. He is utterly overcome. It obviously can mean something to overseas players.
melmacian_saint Posted 11 May, 2013 Posted 11 May, 2013 Paul Scharner. He is utterly overcome. It obviously can mean something to overseas players. Scharner looks a genuinely nice guy, and he doesn't earn more out of advertising than of his footballing skills. It means a lot for many of the Wigan players who quite frankly won't get higher than this in what football glory is concerned!
Crab Lungs Posted 11 May, 2013 Posted 11 May, 2013 Interviewer: Roberto, did the best team win? Mancini: I don't know, it was a good game, they scored in the last minute. We didn't play well... Interviewer: Why? Mancini: I don't know. Sums the bloke up. Clueless and classless.
Turkish Posted 11 May, 2013 Posted 11 May, 2013 Today is evidence if any where needed as to why we should never take any cup competion lightly.
Crazy Diamond Posted 11 May, 2013 Posted 11 May, 2013 Would have preferred a City win. Thoroughly bored of Wigan and their bloody story.
latter day saint Posted 11 May, 2013 Posted 11 May, 2013 i heard a rumour that Dave Whelan, the Wigan chairman used to be a footballer & received a bad injury while playing in the Cup final ?
Dr Who? Posted 11 May, 2013 Posted 11 May, 2013 Would have preferred a City win. Thoroughly bored of Wigan and their bloody story. That's the spirit!
Colinjb Posted 12 May, 2013 Author Posted 12 May, 2013 Thoroughly bored of Wigan and their bloody story. For Saints fans to criticise Wigan as they have had a benefactor would be something of a hypocrisy. Their model is seemingly similar to ours, spend on squad/infrastructure to get to the Premier League and then aim to be self sustaining. Of course, the self sustaining bit is the hard part...
