Samaritans Score Prediction - Wigan (a)
Unsurprisingly perhaps no-one predicted a 5-0 away win at one of our bogey teams and decent side Stockport. Indeed optimism was in relatively low supply with only 15 of our number predicting a Wycombe win - the lowest for a few games.
Seven of the previous top eleven predictors missed out this week so the table has tightened significantly. @Wendoverman still leads - five weeks overall at the top now - but @DevC an d @bargepole both climb into the top three in close proximity. Those two plus @mwite and @carrickblue are in their best positions of the season.
So on we go to Wigan on Saturday. Is it now no longer a case of who will win but merely how many..........?
Quick admin notes, unlike @railwaysteve I do allow predictions to be changed so will accept your last post as your prediction - there were a few for this game. Welcome to @thecatwwfc. I will add you to the league if you predict again next game.

Wigan 0-2 Wycombe
I predicted a cagey draw for our first of the two reported 'real tests'...
Could two trips up North be too much? Is this the Banana skin?
Wigan 1 (surely another clean sheet not possible?) - Wycombe 2 (a disappointing attacking display. Kone misses eight clear cut chances...)
COYB!
Not exactly down to earth with a bump but a sobering, respectable 2-2.
Wigan 1 Wycombe 0
Wigan 1-3 Wycombe
Wigan 1 Wycombe 3
Wigan 2 table toppers 3. This time we come from 2-0 down because we will not be denied.
Wigan 0 Wycombe 1
Wigan 2 Wycombe 3
Despite the midweek victory, all the signs are that this won't be an easy game.
Kone named as player of the month
Matt up for manager of the month.
Matt possibly on the way to replace Robins at Coventry.
Wigan 3 v 1 Wycombe
Surprised to find Wigan that low in table. But Wigan 1 Wycombe 2

We have already put to bed the ghost of Edgeley Park this week, now for the payback for that tackle on Jocky. It was the coldest day I can remember being at a football match, worse than Morecambe at home last season.
Wigan 0-4 Wycombe
Wigan 1-3 Wycombe please
We were there for that game and it was a career wrecking tackle on McSporran. If I recall there was serious talk of a million pound move to Wolves prior to this game.
Looking back at our previous 3 results after a 5 - 0 league win and we have Drawn 2 and Lost 1 (4-1!)
So a comedown to earth result nailed on
Wigan 3 - 0 Wycombe
Wigan 1 Wycombe 2
Wigan 2 (Taylor, Montrose) - Wycombe 2 (Low, Lubala)
Wigan 1-3 Wycombe
Wigan 1 - Wycombe 2
Wigan 0 Wycombe 1
Bring us back down to earth with a huge crash.
We will only score one tomorrow and keep a clean sheet.
1-0 Wycombe.
Wigan Athletic 1 Wycombe Wanderers 2
Nil nil
The day Wycombe win at Wigan is the day a Sky reporter turns up at Old Trafford, midweek, and finds absolutely no Irish people (mysteriously not working) willing to give their opinion whilst wearing a newly bought scarf from the megastore
Wigan 2-2 wycombe
