Wigan were second best apart from the first 5 minutes.

He has a point with the third goal when the ball was played into Kitson Lita was offside.

Not impressed by Hunt, very wasteful and looked like a headless chicken at times. He missed a one on one and in the first half hit a shot 10 yards wide when he had all the time in the world. Very wasteful. Gave the ball away alot aswell. Long looked very good and showed some nice touches. No game t...

If I was Convey I'd be getting annoyed at seeing a clogger like Hunt starting ahead of me, especially after the way he played Saturday.

Convey just has that something extra, he's capable of doing something special and creating a goal out of nothing.

The reason the FA Cup has attracted record crowds for the third and fourth rounds is down to the fact Man Utd have been drawn at home both times and got 74,000 and 71,000 respectively.

Not often I agree with Royalee but I share his views. Tickets for Wigans remaining 7 home games are now just £15. I bet they still can't shift them. Reading have more top class clubs around, 30 mins to London and theres 6 Premiership clubs. The rugby excuse is pathetic as Hull also have a big rugby...

Convey. Hunt is a mediocre player who is enjoying a run of fortunate games. It sums up the average fan that they prefer him to Bobby, it's down to the fact he chases more lost causes and gets stuck in abit more. Give me some flair and someone with the ability to take people on and deliever a cross. ...

Alan Green is terrible, he openly admits to knowing little about clubs outside the Premiership because he doesn't cover their games. He just agrees with whatever the callers say most of the time unless he can slag Wenger, Mourinho or Ferguson off.

I think they all knew he had made a mistake but it would have been car crash tv if they had corrected him there and then. I think even Dixon realised he had made a mistake straight away as he appeared to stutter and looked rather flustered.

Loved on MOTD Dowie saying we had strength in our squad, and everyone agreeing SC is superb etc....but who is that tosser Dixon claiming that he's got it right this year "last year they were struggling and this year they are not???" God grant us another season of struggling like we had la...

Surely weekends, terraces, old grounds etc aside We want a home tie against either lower league opposition or against a struggling side ie Watford or even Fulham. There is a genuine chance for us here of a final. :shock: As I stated all along, people need to have more confidence in the team. If the...

Having a release fee of 70k is worthless. If they saw the potential Coppell did in him then surely the fee would have been alot higher when he signed his last contract at Cork. They made the mistake, Reading took advantage. Football isn't a charity and Reading were not going to offer alot of money f...

The question should be 'Are Cork still livid with themselves for letting two quality players leave for peanuts?' Typical Irish, always someone else to blame and bitter as you can get. They can't get over the fact they messed up. This transfer should have nothing to do with the Doyle and Long deal, ...

Arsenal, Chelsea or Man Utd at home.

Better chance to beat them at this stage than later as they would be more inclined to rest players especially with the next round being the Saturday before the Champions League resumes.

Lita took his chances well but you'd expect any half decent striker to have scored them. He did miss a free header that on another day could have proved costly. That miss pales into insignificance compared to Ronaldos open goals miss earlier in the season. What has Ronaldo got to do with todays game?

Very very impressive performance. Bikey was solid today and good to see Convey looking almost back to his best. Kitson deserves a mention for taking his chance so well.
