well said Lincoln, sensible post. I spoke to a Wigan fan earlier who said Gildart is going to be a cracking player plus Harris will have seen these kids come thro

What a barmy post from the aptly named Redidiot.

Both our lads are on a months loan and cannot be recalled (same with George Griffin last month). Seems the Harris witchunt has started from those who don`t have a clue what is going on.

Reel in that frothy outrage and have a little think.

I'm sure if we had young lads ready to step up, Harris would do so. Ford and England probably can't be recalled either which leads to bringing in these two young lads. Sometimes, young players are not ready to take the step-up into first grade. Having a rant at Harris because you fail to understand the ins and outs behind the scenes just means you are living up to your name.

I know, let's get Shaun McCrae back - winning every week certainly wasn't everything and he definitely didn't grow his reputation!!!!

At least we did not sign Gibert and George.

Note to readers, we have Mr Bailey probably visiting us on Sunday.

Was just going to write the same as you Mr Butcher

Jon Ford is on a 3 month loan and as I understand it, he can't be recalled until 20th June

Bodies are needed lets be honest were struggling like hell. I am not looking forward to the next month although i'm not sure how bad some of the injuries are!

Jack Murphy anyone?

I read it as 15 players either Injured , banned or unable to be called back from Loan .

Ryan Lannon has already been drafted in from the reserves,

Jake Bibby I guess would have been the next most likely , but we are down to the marrow of the bare bones .

still time to draft back Stuart Littler ...

Indeed you do - and he will want to impress his new supporters, team mates and coaching staff.
Playing on Sunday at Salford and drinking at the last chance saloon - what a combination.

Where's the lad who played a few games at centre either last year or season before? Had a double-barreled surname and think his first name was "Edson"?. IIRC correctly he did ok and would have thought he'd have come on since then. Maybe we let him go but haven't spotted anything to that effect.

rlEdwin Okanga-Ajwangrl Currently on a dual registration with Oldham. Alan Hunte took the opportunity to play him when in temporary charge against Bradford and Widnes. Still has some developing to do before he can make the step up though.

Don't think so seeing as he is now a Workington Town player!!!

Good! Found his level then, why Noble brought him in I'll never know! He confidence was shot when he dropped that bomb for Wigan in play offs season before. Worst loan signing in recent memory for me.
