I am quite confident about today, I think the Villa match will serve as a wake up call.

[AJ 1,218]

The club have announced Hoolahan has signed a one year extension to his contract, confirming his stay til 2015

Bassong is player of the month

[Herman 9,710]

Yep that is what i am hoping Holty. I also hope our fans haven''t gone to the game thinking this will be an easy 3 points. Wigan are no mugs.

A bit late, but, woop!

Doesn''t sound too good, were sitting back again.

Don''t be such a pussy....we''re in 7th place in  the standings.

[Bws Cat 0]

I seriously cannot tell if that was a joke or not.

Anyway, it seems Hughton has changed it a bit. In the space of three minutes or so we started to attack again. Good stuff.

[NWC 239]

Ahhh Pilks misses a sitter as al habsi flaps it!!!

[Bws Cat 0]

Some save from Al-Habsi. We HAVE to put these chances away.

[NWC 239]

another chance - snoddy should have scored - we should have 3 at least!!

[technika 0]

yeh should be 3 nil by now

[Bws Cat 0]

To be fair guys, Al Habsi had to pull off a superb save to stop Snoddy.

[Christov 3]

We are absolutely bossing this but need the goals to reflect our superiority.

[norfolkbroadslim 223]

Kone definitely has the beating of Turner....

[Aggy 750]

Al Habsi has been weird recently - normally superb but has cost them a couple of goals in recent weeks and has looked a bit suspect at times today (but then goes and makes saves like that!)

[NWC 239]

Great first half by city - well played !!!Now a couple more goals please!!!!

[BarclayCanary (Former HDDH) 0]

Playing really well, Johnson needs to remain calm and make sure he doesn''t get another yellow.

[norfolkbroadslim 223]

Have to agree, playing very well first half.  It should be more than 1, let''s continue to play well and the longer we do, hopefully the more a Wigan side lacking in confidence heads may drop.

[norfolkbroadslim 223]

I can''t see Di Santo staying on the bench for long.

Similar to his header at Spurs. He still hasn''t learned to head down and make it difficult for the keeper.

[Bws Cat 0]

Oh great, it just had to happen didn''t it?

Why can''t we play the second half or put these chances away?

[Macey 5]

here we go sit back again...........

[BarclayCanary (Former HDDH) 0]

FFS

What a goal thouigh

[NWC 239]

That was coming - we should be putting away more of the chaces we created.Wigan created cock all and are still 1-1 !!!

[norfolkbroadslim 223]

I could just sense it.  Complete dominance, Wigan nowehere, playing poorly, visibly lacking in confidence and we go and give them a lifeline![:@]

[city-till-i-die 7]

Dam and bugger. Come on City

[Aggy 750]

I don''t like to moan this early (especially in our current form), but more evidence that we are only a clinical striker away from being a very good side. We''ve been creating chances all season, we can now defend fairly well, we just still don''t put enough away.

Still time to get one this afternoon though!

[AJ 1,218]

You can''t lack the clinical finish we do, and expect to win.

We should have been 3 or 4 up at half time and once again it''s going to hurt us

Wazzys ref watch will be good tonight
