Decided not to watch the game tonight on the grounds it'll be too painful and I'd get too stressed so I've decided to go to Ikea with the missus instead. Thinking about it now I might be better off watching the game.

Might pop into the bookies later and get a Gooners to score an offside goal, Gooners to score an undeserved penalty and Wigan to get two red cards treble...about 3/1 I reckon.

Wigan are in the bottom 3 because they are one of the 3 worst teams in the country. I fail to even entertain the thought that they will get anything away at Arsenal (don't care about last year)

They have had a terrible season with injuries but all bar 3 are now fit. I would say there are 2 poor teams in be league and the rest bar the top 7 are much of a muchness

They always start slowly and come on strong at the end of the season

Can see Arsenal underestimating them

We've only taken a point off them this year and they ripped us to shreds at the Lane. When they're good, they're very good.

The trouble is, that is just good sense and totally ignores football 100/1 chances - like how Wigan come to be FA Cup winners. Apply your logic (which is not unreasonable - it's highly likely) and we are not getting CL for certain. We kissed that goodbye when we failed to beat Chelsea. Now that's just no fun at all...

Not that I want to be placing money on these fucks....but twenty quid on Arsenal to beat Wigan and Newcastle returns 25 in profit.

If anyone is interested in being compensated should these fucks win both.

I'd love to see Wigan get something but I think I'm with a lot of people when I believe arsenal will be their usual jammy fucker selves and score and 24 seconds

Another one who's betting against us. What's with the modern fan? Jeez!
It's betting against Wigan, nothing to do with us... we have zero influence on this game and considering everything how can anyone be anything more than hopeful?!!

Like I said, we needed to keep things in our hands, then I would too have been confident, we failed to do that and thus right now one has to expect that Arsenal have the advantage and are at this stage likely to limp over the line with the prize.

I'm not betting...because even winning a few extra quid isn't going to compensate for the disappointment. I would have to put on a massive bet to feel a little compensated, then Wigan would draw and I couldn't enjoy it as much because I would of lost a massive wedge.

Its all such a head fuck.
