I'm guessing that Wigan might need their own Poojah today.

I was thinking the same thing as I watched MOTD last night. Crazy, comical defending from Wigan and even their one goal shouldn't have counted.

He said: "It was a fair result.
"In the first half Bradford played a slightly different system and they caused us problems. We couldn't get the ball in midfield.
"We changed it at half-time and could have got back into it within five minutes of the second half quite easily.
"After that I think they showed a little bit more heart, quality and organisation than us.
"We had some chances and you can look at it as good goalkeeping or poor finishing or both.
"Saturday's performance against Lincoln City can't be the standard we produce when we are playing well. If that is as good as they play when playing their best, it isn't good enough.
"I am honest and I want to make sure they don't think I am going to be an easy touch.
"That was a million miles away from what I expect them to play. The Lincoln game I would class as an average performance, so the standards they produced last night is a long way from what I expect individually and collectively.
"Bradford were stronger in every department on the pitch and that is an honest reflection and a disappointing one."
"We have got to sign people who can consistently deliver at the right level
"I've got to work with them and bring people in that can perform at the level we expect.
"We are trying to bring players in before the deadline.
"I am quite sensible in the way I reflect on games, but anyone will tell you that yes we had some chances, and you can argue their goals were long-range shots, but overall we were at home and we were not in control of the game.
"I am extremely disappointed but my expectations and hopes remain the same as when I took over.
"We are where we are because we are not performing good enough. There is a job that we have to do.
"We need to have more heart. You can start looking for it individually and if you find people haven't got it they don't play, it is as simple as that."

well it's not quite up their with poojah but it's about as honest as you can get from a manager. one thing i will say for woods - he isn't afraid to tell it how it is and at least he's not labouring under any illusions. the worrying thing of course is that when you read the comments in bold you suddenly realise that it appears to woods that the current squad have no redeemimg features whatsoever!

Very encouraging comments from Woods in my opinion


Reporter - Is it true you took your wife to see Huddersfield on your honeymoon?

Bill Shankly - Do you think I would marry my wife in the football season? Besides it was Huddersfield Reserves

The sad thing is that this rant may end up being the most memorable event this season.
