[Bodell]

Wigan coming of the back of a good result against Arsenal, and Newcastle looking for the win.

I'm going to say 2-1 Newcastle.

Kevin Nolan, Joey Barton & Hugo Rod for Wigan

 

[comelan]

Wigan 1-1 Newcastle

 

[MichaelSoulsby]

Going for the boring 0-0. Got couple of good mates going up with Toon fans across too.

 

[Gav123]

Hopefully a victory for the toon but we have a tendancy to slip up in these games!

 

[Dunc]

No Carroll, so we will win 1-0

 

[Frank]

Fancy Wigan today.

3-1

 

[SPIDLY_MAN]

C'mon the Toon, 2-2 I think, Ameobi and Ranger for us and Cleverley and Rodallega for Wigan

 

[Cal.]

Newcastle line-up:

Harper
Simpson - S Taylor - Coloccini - Enrique
Barton - Nolan - Tiote - Gutierrez
Ameobi - Lovenkrands

[Jak]

2-1 Wigan

 

[A* Manager]

Bore draw for me.
0-0.

 

[prow07]

We better win, I can't have another one of my teams beat today !!

 

[ravenie]

Wigan 7-0 Newcastle

 

[Cal.]

There's only one Ameobi :wub: 1-0. (Although he does have a brother at the club, and more family not at club...)

Also good distribution is one thing we've been missing with Krul in goal, having Harper back is showing the importance of good distribution.

Edit: Spelling mistake :'(

 

[Man v.1]

Super Sholaaaaaaa! (H)

 

[ravenie]

OK changing my prediction.

7-1

 

[Blynd1]

Ameobi 1-0. I am going for 3-1 Nufc

 

[Cal.]

Should have been 2-0 there (well 3-0 with Shola's headed miss in 2nd min), Lovenkrands lost track of the ball alone at the edge of the 6 yard box.

 

[Man v.1]

A glorious chance missed by Lovenkrands! :O
