“the score flatters Latics hugely”
“Outplayed by a better team, but the fight was there.”
“Tough one today against a very good Sheffield United side”
“Don’t care that we lost, the boys absolutely smashed it today. Lost 1-0 but everyone expected 4 or 5-0.”
“Genuinely thought we would get smashed 4-0 and sheffield fans thought the same when I asked”
“Fair result, far from the fat lady yet though, still think there’s summat in these men”
“Too many big tackles/ blocks to say Wigan didn’t have fight. Going forward they aren’t as strong as Sheff U (basic facts looking at the table) but you never know, they had a few chances to snatch a point. Fair result, Swansea was always going to be the bigger game. “
“decent performance against a good side”
“From all chances Sheffield had, the one they scored was poor. “
“We just don’t look like scoring. Plenty ball in the middle of the park but that was Shef Utd in 1st gear.”
“Yet another defeat and another game were we yet again don’t score.”
“We competed well against a decent side for the most part.”
“Same old ,same old. Absolutely f###### tame in last 3rd. See Fletcher in starting 11 and you know 0-0 is best we can hope for. Wasted another 60 mins till he was hooked. For the 60 mins he’s on the ball goes forward and immediately our defence under pressure. We know Magennis not a world beater but won more ball in 1st 10 mins than Fletcher has in last 5 games. Then to really piss me 1 minute into stoppage we get a free kick on left and instead of putting it on penalty spot Power tries the short play game……..f###### ridiculous!!!”
“Last free kick of the game . Chance to throw bodies in box for last throw of dice ? No . Short pass and lose ball . Standard. “
“It was back and forth all game apart from first 10 mins where they destroyed us. We had a lot of chances but the problem ofcourse as you said is our final 3rd.”
“Keeping the score down isn’t an achievement. Effort is there from some players but it’s quite incredible how little we actually threaten to score goals. Sheffield United weren’t great today didn’t need to.”
“There was something there for us today. Sheff U were nervous.”
“Too many big tackles/ blocks to say Wigan didn’t have fight. Going forward they aren’t as strong as Sheff U (basic facts looking at the table) but you never know, they had a few chances to snatch a point. Fair result, Swansea was always going to be the bigger game.”
“I thought Wigan did us proud today. It was a daft early goal and we had a couple of half chances so in a parallel universe might have won! That said, in this universe, we don’t have a single player that can go past a defender and Sheff Utd would have had at least five withour Amos.”
“Another toothless, zero attacking threat performance. It’s bloody draining on my mental health.”
“They weren’t great because Amos, Hughes, whatmough and Bennett did brilliant.”
“Sheff Utd keeper paid 10k this week to take goal kicks “
“Don’t care what division Latics get relegated to…. You are My Sunshine is by far the best song in English football…”
one of our our fans has hit my dad at half time, someone find me a name. 20+ year old hitting my 60 year old dad. Find me a name so I can serve justice.”

I love reading opposition comments,,, from a blade,,, your really shouldn’t be to critical and hard on yourself for this game your defended brilliantly and to be fair your final 3rd can’t be criticised your created some good chances but if you ask any fan of any team in the championship we’ve by far the best midfield in the league with a not to bad defence (who cost us more goals than we should actually concede with stupid mistakes) our midfield basically do the job of the defenders as well as their own job,,, your lads did your proud seriously some of the movement was nice to watch and if I am totally honest if we had an average midfield your lads would have won that game 3-1 credit were it’s due lads good luck going forward see your when we come back down next year and your lads have stormed league 1
