I did it! For the first time ever I managed to attend every home game this season and, now I’ve finally managed to get a ticket for the home playoff game, I thought I’d look back at the astonishing end of the season.

It was a very nervous performance from the players & the crowd but I have to say what a colossus Piergianni was. He gave a real captain’s performance yet again, driving the team forward, throwing himself into everything. I really don’t know where we’d be without him.

Same goes for Marschall. What a signing he has been! Incredible once again & has to be one of the best in L1.

I thought Pattenden & Earley were very good as well.

Unfortunately I felt the midfield struggled. We seemed to have trouble winning the 2nd ball & I didn’t think White or Thompson were in the game at all. I was relieved to see Dan Phillips come on & he was brilliant from the word go. That run he made down the right with Wigan players bouncing off him was one of the highlights for me.

I have no doubt that the ball crossed the line for the goal but it’s irrelevant now anyway. The linesman said it did & that’s all that matters. Huge credit to Revell for the substitutions - he really went for it & throwing Sweeney up front was the difference.

I haven’t cheered a goal so loudly for many years & I still haven’t fully got my voice back! Apologies to everyone around me who all got a hug. I don’t know any of you but I was so relieved, I couldn’t help myself!

Whatever happens next, it’s been a fabulous season. Revell & the players deserve huge credit.
