A scapegoat for what? We're not even playing competitive games at the minute so how can he be a scapegoat.

It would seem that RS likes Berrett, he's played quite a bit since he came. Personally I think he will be a regular this season. Not a big fan but will get behind him all the same.TBH with the players we have, can't see anymore than a mid table finish I'm afraid.

Quoted from MuddyWaters


He had loads of opportunities to impress if he was a left winger or had a left foot. He was, like Artus and McLaughlin before him, a square peg in a round hole. Considering we were playing against what was, till very recently, a Championship midfield the other night, I thought both he and Rose did pretty well and some of his passing, particularly in the first half, was pretty good.


Too old-and I don't mean Berrett

Berrett can perform well, but his consistency is more miss than hit. There is a good player in there, it's just that we don't see it often enough. If he played to his technical ability, he would be a fair player. Like a lot of players at our level, consistency is the problem ...... that's why they never go up the leagues.

I don't doubt that Berret has decent enough technical ability.

I'd say rather than consistency, it's effectiveness in a game that is missing a bit from him. Players like Andi Thanoj spring to mind who've had good technical ability but if you can't effect a game in some way then the player is lacking in other areas.

Having said that, I do sympathise with Berret because he hasn't had that much game time in central midfield and his attributes are never suited to playing wide in a million years.

Altho i am not a fan of Berret. i have respect for a player that  says . gaffa. if needed i will play out of position and do my best for the team even if i fail... Its the managements fault for not recruiting the correct staff..or at least getting someone that plays  said position naturally.  I am in now way knocking  RS &PW, but its there job to sort this thats why they have there jobs , same goes for all managers

That can't be right! According to some on here the arrival of Slade virtually guarantees a play-off place at the very least!

Glad to see Clements back, I hope he gets another start at Wigan as he'll be playing catch up with the rest of the squad now.

It is not just the players that make a successful team,

The manager decides who will play and how we will play and some managers can make a successful team out of average players.

Slade is one of those managers so if we are not nearer the play offs than we were last season I would be very surprised .
