Wigan 1 [Ref] Morecambe 2 [Macadam, Angol] LIVE thread

[Keith]

Will Charlie Brown get a start ???

To be fair, probably still not fully fit after his injury.

[Keith]

I'm actually starting to laugh at this crap ref's decisions now!

SIX MINUTES ADDED ON???

The physics haven't been on the pitch, so six minutes for substitutions???

Well that was a welcome result well done to the team, held on well, Tollitt had a great effort saved. 2-1Win whistle gone.

Hard fought game let’s hope that this give us the impetus to push on

[black morse]

Great defensive display against a pretty slick Wigan team. Well done lads.

Brilliant victory. Well deserved, it’s been a long time coming.
This should raise confidence for the league fixtures.
Onwards and upwards.
COME ON YOU MORECAMBE REDS.

Just seen the ref's assist again. Absolutely no way that was a penalty. But, he gave them everything, all match.

Excellent result, just what we needed. Now, let's repeat it on Saturday.

Another decent performance. Last few weeks have been good, despite the narrow defeats.

Redalert doing his disappearance skill again when we are winning.

Bring us sunshine.. bring us goals....bri g us a win...excellent Sod the stats. It's what you do without the ball out of possession that counts.

[Wild Bill]

We are well organised, there is no bout about that, we play Adams Ball very well, the understanding is there, even from those who got their first real minutes on the pitch. The problem is that leaves little room for error whatever that may be.

Very few times in the last 3-4 seasons when Adam’s has been here we have been well beaten, there no disgrace in that and no point in getting up tight about those few games, it happens. Please though think back how many times we dropped points because we let teams play and keep ball and end they up nicking points off us. (It happened bothe times at home this season so far). In My humble opinion we would not have been relegated from League 1 the year we did if we had just been a bit more on the front foot.

As for this season it’s probably one of the reasons we have not already got 2 or 3 points. Last night with Angol up front we I thought we can caused a defence real problems throughout the game with his willingness to put himself about and with Lewis as a false number 10 we looked more dangerous than we have been so far. If Edwards had not been rested and he played with his pace was I sure it would have even better.

My concern is we have not reached the pace we played at at the start of last season, I have no doubt we would have won a few of those early games.

Please don’t get me wrong we are improving in all aspects of the game it’s just that extra 10% of something and we will be fine.

Our league position will go down to winning games against teams in and around us. We have struggled somewhat with that in the last few seasons especially when we went down, that was for me that season between the difference between staying up and going down.

I agree with DA there are good footballers in our squad and it is slowly coming to the fore, WE WILL BE FINE.

[Wild Bill]

Derek's record in relegation battles often have clusters of positive results. Let's hope this is the beginning of one of these clusters to pull us up the table
