Apparently, a mammoth following of 60 have gone to White Hart Lane supporting Wigan.

A god only knows where they got their figure from - I'm hardly keen on the Latics, but the real figure was actually more than double that. Hardly a huge following, but who can blame them at £35 a pop and their performances recently?!

Meireles is a good all round midfielder, excellent in the tackle and a good shot on him. Not the fastest but good tackling and fairly good technically. If he adapts to the Premier League he will do a good job.

Maybe a lot of the Wigan fans are also rugby fans and decided to go down the pub to watch the CC Final instead of forking out the money for a trip to White Hart Lane?

I think that's three penalties in a row Lampard has missed now.

Not sure who that referee was that was 'in charge' of us yesterday, but i think his protection of Joey Barton was an absolute disgrace.

He got clattered time after time, and you can imagine if it was Barton who had made those challenges, he would have been off.

Absolutely awful performance from the official.

Aye, that Henry has always seemed a bit rough in the tackle.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, Perch is a disaster waiting to happen. Every time he has a challenge to make or a dangerous run at him, his brain falls out of his *rse and ends up clattering them more often than not. Wolves should've have a penalty yesterday as he was nowhere near the ball when he sent one of their lot tumbling.

Can't wait til Simpson is fit again, or a new RB would be even better, with Simpson as back up and Perch purely as an odd-job squad filler.

Yeh i think Perch is the main weak link at the moment.

I would rather play Ryan Taylor there until Simpson is fit again.

Aye that would be a better move.

Even for a small sum (£1.5m), and he can cover a good few positions, still seems a waste of money. Which would seem hard if you had got a utility man for such a small price.

Why the crumbs are Liverpool signing Paul Koncesky?
