Why this game sometimes makes you want to pull your hair out

Yes, this is a moan... I'm sorry. But i have to moan to someone, and you're the only people who truely understand what we go through.

Okay, I'm Wigan. I took over them when they were struggling to live up to expectations in the Championship (14th when took over in Jan the year before now)
So anyways... The League Cup 3rd Round! I got drawn against Premiership Middlesbrough (who were in Europe!) It was going to be tough.
It started great, i scored first, but then we each scored after each other to get to 2-2. Until... 5-2 to Me! ACE i was thinking, EASY!! Until...

While it is possible to happen in RL the likelyhood of it happening is so remote it aint even worth mentioning. Im convinced after last 3 version that. NERDS DONT MAKE GOOD SPORT GAMES!!!! Never played on a full pitch. Yes ive asked b4. So we get this bunch of steaming horse dung where catch up logic ruin almost every single game. They are as dumb as dog S@#t.

Might partly explain it but to be honest it's just the way football is... anything can and will happen.

You were just unlucky.

Somehow, I think SI have a made a damn better job of this game than, say, John Terry and Michael Owen would have done.

This is a CL Final in Fm08

dudubrdx · 01-14-2008, 01:51 AM

I was actually 1-6 down and grabbed a late equaliser (90th). I did expect to be able to win this one, having scored 6 (!!!) consecutive goals in a CL final...
