Wigan Athletic deducted 3 points (P33)

[Didsbury Dave]

Due to COVID 19

 

[Champions Again Ole Ole]

Don’t have a great opinion of the club due to beating us in the cup but sad to see another club potentially fall by the way side

 

[Bovril]

Very sad however, I think this is the first of many.

 

[waspish]

Wont be the first club to go in admin in these climates.

 

[urban genie]

When this happened to Bury and Bolton were threatened I was sad for both local clubs and it's fans

Somehow I don't really care about this news, terrible for any club, but my despair for wigan is minimal

 

[Ban-jani]

Remember that **** who spat at Aguero and bragged about it, or the pitch invasion goading our end?

Fuck em.

 

[Metal Biker]

 

[Cotswold Knight]

Couldn’t give a shit
Hate that twat who use to own them Dave Whelan was all for ffp in prem because his shitty little club couldn’t compete with the big boys but forgot he bankrolled Wigan to get there wanker

 

[Ballet-on-ice]

Ha!

They never liked us so I never liked them. I'll be dancing on their grave.

 

[Semper aggressus]

Oh dear.
How sad.
Never mind.

Pie-eating chav wankers.

 

[journolud]

They don’t mean much to me but they do to their supporters and the community. Not something to celebrate

 

[Ballet-on-ice]

Second thread on this. So I get to say "ha" again.

 

[bluekeith]

Will the league change the rules so that we can take over one of the struggling lower league teams and if so who should we go for?

 

[baggy]

The whole model under EPL needs a complete shake up and restructure and COVID-19 might force it.

Can't imagine many clubs from Div.1 down being financially stable pre-lockdown and with the knock on effects of business being switched off for the last few months (Not just at the clubs but also benefactors/investors etc.) we'll see many more clubs going into administration in the not so distant future imo.

 

[Richard]

Whilst normally I don't like to see any club in financial trouble, I am struggling to find an ounce of sympathy for Wigan...

 

[Ballet-on-ice]

They don’t mean much to me but they do to their supporters and the community. Not something to celebrate

Oh it is though.

 

[dadnlad]

my mates praying for oldham next then his love for liverpool has no guilty edge

 

[urban genie]

They don’t mean much to me but they do to their supporters and the community. Not something to celebrate

Their fans will just go back to watching Rugby and supporting the rags from their armchairs

Fuck em

 

[Silvercloud]

Thought they were being taken over by some Far East consortium?

 

[lefty goldblatt]

Dave asks have they got a leg to stand on
