N'Zogbia Faces Fitness Test.

N'Zogbia who went down under a heavy challenge in the Hull game, forcing him to be substituted, played the full game in the embarassing defeat to Everton but is still reporting discomfort in his knee.

If he fails to make the game tomorrow, he is expected to be replaced by De Ridder, with the Latics expected to retain a 4-5-1 line up with Mido as a lone striker.

Latics who have the second worse goal scoring record at home, have been subject to critisism about their negative football and it remains to be seen whether this line up will placate the faithful.

Likely line up
Kirkland,
Melchiot, Boyce, Bramble, Figueroa,
Valencia, Scharner, Brown, Watson, N'Zogbia/De Ridder,
Mido




Latics Speyk Podcast 8

Vital Latics are pleased to announce that the latest podcast 'The Arsenal Preview` is now available for downloading and as usual features conversation and music.

This episode looks forward to the Arsenal game this weekend and features an interview with life long Gooner Tim Stillman of Vital Arsenal fame, now Tim will be travelling up to the JJB this weekend for the big game and he sounds a little nervous as to what the result might be.

Also on this episode the Latics Speyk studio hit the road and met with far away Latics fan Kent who hails from Norway, we met up with Kent in a town centre bar and fired 10 quick questions at him then just had a general chat about the Latics, Norway, Paul Scharner and Denmark

Now to say that the Norwegians and Danes don`t get along is an understatement and Kent`s description of Denmark is very funny and not to be missed (about 18 mins in)


Kent aka Norwegian Latic

The music featured on this episode has a distinctive soul flavour, now Tim told me that he is a big soul man and he has in his CD collection down in South East London quite a few soul albums and he says he is a big Northern Soul fan, so Al Wilson, Tony Clarke, Marvin Gaye all feature and we end with a wonderful track by The Tams called 'There Aint Nothing Like Shagging`, no there aint.
