[quote="From Despair To Where?"]WTF are Huddersfield doing with their line up today? 10 changes. Are they trying to avoid Fulham in the playoffs?[/quote]

If so it could backfire. Fulham play Wednesday in their last game so if Fulham win their last two games they finish 5th.

Lengthy delay as MacDonald for the Latics appears to have been seriously injured in a midfield collision...

Think Evans was a lucky boy there. Looked a red to me

Hope McDonald's leg isn't too destroyed

It sounded like Wigan had more of the chances but we're up one at the break. Norwich at one point were up 3 on Leeds but the home side pulled one back before the break. 1-3 there...

Wigan could have had a hatful on another. But for some excellent last minute blocks and some.bad luck (and a bit of bad finishing)

We certainly sound like a team playing for a point...

Pretty awful game. I thought Wigan were quite tidy to be honest and Powell up front was clearly a good player. I didn't see that much in the way of good chances for them - AAH didn't have to make a decent save, but there were as said some good late blocks by the back 4

Difficult to pick a mom. Everyone was a little below par I thought.

Liked the look of Ilori, first time I'd seen him properly. Very good on the ball

Once we went 3 at the back, with Ilori, we comfortably saw the game out

The striker Wigan brought on was awful, just standing around expecting everyone else to do the work for him

Agreed, we more than comfortably held on to a 1-0 at home against a team in 23rd place and now relegated.

omar Bogle - people thought we should sign him. He is quick though. I like Nick Powell. Wouldn't mind him at the Madejski next season
