Welcome Wigan to the championship !! on 21:39 - May 14 with 2426 views | TW_R | I hope some of our players were watching that. At least the Wigan players looked like they cared and pretty much all of them looked pretty gutted at the end. | | | | Login to get fewer ads

Welcome Wigan to the championship !! on 21:41 - May 14 with 2414 views | TearsOfaClown | Nothing to crow about. We are not in their class! They won the FA Cup unlike us who could not be bothered V MK Dons. They went down fighting unlike us who whimpered. They played with spirit and people like them - unlike us. Time to flush at QPR and get rid of that awful smell of rich shites! | | | |

If we was on 38 now we would still be in the bottom 3 on gd | |

It didn't seem that way at the time, but losing to Fulham looks like it saved them too. | | | |

Don't really like to crow about anyone going down. Always feel for other teams (nearly always). But Wigan are really not that good. They failed to beat us twice, once when we only had 10 men for 70 minutes. They beat Man City, but we drew with Man City and almost beat them at their place on the last day of last season. Most teams can get up for the odd game - their run to the final was: Bournemouth, Macclesfield, Huddersfield, Everton, Millwall. That is a lovely, lovely route and they made the most of it with a super performance on Saturday. Fact is, Wigan are just not very good. Never understood their 'they play beautiful football' fan club either. Can't say I've ever really noticed it. What they will do, though, is probably appoint a half decent young manager. Whelan generally does do that, and I'm sure they'll do quite well next season. | |

Hold on. Redknapp said 37 points. And he stuck to it for months. If Wigan beat Villa then 37 wouldn't have been enough. And if we were sitting on 37 with us away to Liverpool and Wigan on 35 paying Villa at home, I'd be worried. Redknapp has not been proven right. | | | |

No, I think he said he thought that would be a realistic target, but he always added that he wasn't sure it would be enough. | |

No. He said he'd "take" 37 points. It's doubtful, and certainly not been proven that would have kept us up. Think about it, what's the point in saying "we're aiming for 37" and "I'd take 37" unless you think you'd survive on it??? Bit stupid if you really think it won't be enough. | | | |

We all agree this has been a joke of a season but we lost 20 games same as Wigan and 1 less than Reading, conceded 59 goals to Wigan's 71 and Reading's 69 and conceded 4 or more goals in a game twice (and for what it is worth to the same team Swansea) compared to Wigan 5 and Reading 4. So maybe closer than the points difference suggests. Of course this does not include next Sunday's games. | | | |

Er... no. That's because the total to stay up is roughly the same every year. So it's quite hard to be 'far off', isn't it? Although it's an achievement for Harry - he can't count or work a phone or anything! | |

How can you go about Wigan's easy run to the cup final. QPR tend to lose whoever they are playing in the FA Cup and our performances against MK Dons and Reading in cups this season again were expected. | | | |
