Wigan have shown in the past few years that they can pick things up in just enough time to get out of trouble. That's my fear with us. I just don't see it happening at all.

They've been all over Fulham according to the R5 reporter at Craven Cottage. They are a much better team than us these days

The other thing with Wigan is they arguably have a better starting XI than we do.

I'm struggling to find any rays of hope in what I'm seeing right now. How in the hell did we win at Liverpool and at Norwich, let alone Man City to have somehow become this? We need a minimum of 2 goals against Bradford. I can't see us doing that either.

I did trust in Lambo. He was my first choice - but it hasn't worked. Whether it's all his fault or not, the club's short term future of staying up is the main priority. If he can't do it, find someone that will.

Any suggestions?

You just know what would happen if it were us holding onto this lead.

The defence is clearly shit, but it's the midfield that's quite shockingly poor. We have no attacking mids, and no defensive mids. So they all end up doing neither, with zero movement and zero impact.
