After a good win against Peterborough the football gods have dealt us a raw deal with Wigan, will our confidence be high enough after that game for the players to believe they can win this one. As a demented fool I think we can do it (that's why I'm doing so badly in the prediction league) faith burns eternal. Gillingham 2 v 1 Wigan (Parker, List, Powell)
I was delighted to have been so wrong about last Saturday's score, but now it's a matter of how well the players have recovered from that, because they really did put some effort into that game, and of course the fact that Wigan are the form team in L1. I agree with brb's view posted on the Next Manager thread, that even a point would be as good as a win from a morale point of view, and even anything other than a heavy loss will not be a disaster in this age of new optimism. So having expected doom and gloom on Saturday I'm going the other way tonight (but not all the way ) Gillingham 2 - 2 Wigan (Parker, Bingham)
