Iain Dowie commented on the Latics first league win of the season as follows, “I think I am relieved, but I think there's no question that we deserved to win the game. We played very well from the word go in the game. We could have scored after a minute, after that I thought our attacking play was excellent and there was only one bit of sloppy defending for their second goal.Dowie comments on first win
Iain Dowie commented on the Latics first league win of the season as follows, “I think I am relieved, but I think there's no question that we deserved to win the game. We played very well from the word go in the game. We could have scored after a minute, after that I thought our attacking play was excellent and there was only one bit of sloppy defending for their second goal.It was a great strike from the fella (Onandi Lowe) and he's a handful. Him and Jack must be one of the best forward partnerships but we dealt with them very well. I thought Mark Hudson was outstanding again. Lowe's a good player and I thought Hudson and Will dealt with him very well.
So you concede to a wonder goal. That's two we've done. Blackpool by Danns and this time by Onandi Lowe and you think maybe that fate's conspiring against us. We got a good goal of our own but could have had more. We should
have certainly been three-up at half time. But you're always nervous. Someone doesn't track and it goes in but you think 'blimey'!

So I thought I'd refresh it a little bit. Matt comes on and gets the goal so I'm delighted for him because he's trying to get himself back in the program. He hit a sweet strike and it's no more than we deserved.”
