Wigan 2 Birmingham 0

What a match! I have not seen us dominate a match like that in ages, Birmingham only got out of their own half about 7 times all match!

Up until the first goal the match was pretty even but after that Birmingham didn't seem to know what had hit them. Ryan Taylor scored both goals; the first being a fantastic left footed stirke the second one just bounced off him a yard out, but as they say: they all count.

Damien Johnson was sent off for a horrendous challenge on Kilbane, luckily he didn't get his standing leg. He should have been sent off earlier after an identical tackle on Mario melchiot.

Valencia and palacios were immense, Birmingham just couldn't do a thing with them all match, should we get a half decent strike force in summer we are going to be a force to be reckoned with. Ryan Taylor ran his socks off all day and went off to the biggest ovation i've seen all season, i bet he was still clapping in the shower after the match! Mario Melchiot was also outstanding, both at the back and going forward.
