I didn't think the performance was that bad to honest.
Wigan are a good side and are a club still being bankrolled / getting parachute payments from the PL, so it's not surprising they have some decent players. In fact, they remind me of Dicanio's side, the rear guard doesn't get troubled too often due to plenty of aggression and bite in the middle, with quality goal scoring options up top.
Under the circumstances, I think we did OK but got undone by quality.
I'd normally be as optimistic as everyone else for next season as we do look safe now, which is a good achievement given the managerial turmoil we've suffered this season.
However, Power is obviously going flog Ajose and anyone else he can in the summer as he looks to recoup the 'couple of million' that the club allegedly owes him, which will bring us back to where we were at the beginning of this season; lightweight, untried, unproven players mixed with those remaining players that have done OK for us this season, which means Groundhog season all over again.
Not with my money though.
Oh fuck me here we go.
Power's going to flog Ajose as part of his nefarious plan is he? Can you think of an owner you'd approve of who WOULDN'T sell Ajose? He is an asset and we aren't a club that can piss about with the odd million here or there. If we get a decent offer, we will sell him. That's how it works without an oligarch.
It continues to astound me that people think that because Power will sell players he's some sort of villain. It's what we need to do. I can understand people quibbling about his media antagonism, or even his love of loans. But the fact we could lose a guy who is one of the top goal scorers in league one? How do you propose we keep him?
