Getting off to a winning start in our first domestic game was all that mattered I guess, nothing particularly stood out, more of a fitness exercise.
 
I don't think it benefited the Community Shield as a curtain raiser for a Championship side to be involved today, for Wigan the match couldn't but be seen as a tad inconvenient after all. However With these occurrence remaining relatively rare i doubt they'll elect to change matters.


I dont think it benefits Wigan to be a championship side either!
 
The Torch pub up Wembley park station was a bit mad today with some right cnuts throwing chairs/metal bars in the air. Couple of people got badly hurt, even looked like some United fans were fighting eachother.

That was the most action of the afternoon, bar the sexy RVP header.

Relatively rare is a huge understatement.

Wigan deserved to be here, they beat City in the final and Everton in the Quarters.
 
Decent performance, would have liked to have seen Januzaj introduced earlier. Welbeck played well. Carrick miles ahead of Clev and Ando.
 
Very positive performance today. We seemed to pass the ball through central areas very well albeit lacking penetration but I liked what we were trying to do. Our wide players also dropped deep into central areas to add numbers in the middle which I liked. One more negative apart from the number of chances we created was that we did struggle when they pressed us high up the pitch. Good stuff overall.
 
Great teams can play shite and still win :)
 
Bellend of the day goes to guy in red curly wig and foam finger. fecking hell.

Actually, bellends of the day go to the four idiots in United shirts with very cockney accents, who spent the tube ride back to waterloo singing about Hillsborough.

It was clear that these fecking morons don't go to games, except the odd general sale charity shield perhaps, And they went a really long way towards embarressing the rest of us.

massive knobheads!

I am afraid even scum can buy a shirt and buy a ticket. Sad.
 
Good enough start to the season. Moyes wins a trophy.

Did De Gea have a save to make or Wigan have a shot on target? I don't remember any.

Nope, we had 7 goal attempts, they had 1 but it wasn't on target. Despite the opposition, a solid enough start for our defenders.
