Wigan Athletic

again...we'll never play you again. we'll never play you again.................


I really really hope......................

They've NEVER got over that play off semi final.

Arrogant City fans apparently we were/are.....................expecting to beat ikkle Wigan..........


Excuse me for wanting to beat Wigan to help get us back where we belong.

Don't get me started on Wembley
 
Not sure Whelan will pack it in, more likely he will be carted off in a white van. Hes lost the plot big time. It would be interesting to see his full record with managerial appointments- comparable to Swales i would have thought.

Ive no axe to grind with Wigan, they beat us fair and square in the cup final, we lost because they were better on the pitch (despite all what was going on behind the scenes), we just werent good enough that day. That being said weve also beaten them fair and square on many occasions including the play-off semi-final, which they need to get over. In fact if i had to choose between getting promoted in 99 or winning the cup in 13 i would choose promotion every time- because we HAD to get out of that division that season.

I cannot see Whelan getting away with what hes said, he insists on keeping on putting his foot in it. Mackay is a disaster and the fans carnt leave in droves because theres hardly any of them anyway. Dont look good for the pie eaters...
 
I can see where alot of you are coming from and I don't particularly like the club or their mainly glory hunting fans especially as I have to live in amongst them.

Take a minute though to realise that Wigan is equidistant from Liverpool/Everton/rags/City/ Blackburn/Bolton/Preston. There are thousands upon thousands of rags/City/Liverpool/Everton in this town, a town of around 90,000.

When you consider that the town has provided around 12,000 rugby fans every season whilst Latics have been on the up and that VERY few watch both codes, Latics have done very well to attract the crowds that they have. Wigan is a proud sporting town and rightly so. Granted they may have been the minnows of the Premier League but some of the arrogance toward them on here is of rag proportions.

Get a bit of rationale and dignity and simply say "well done, you've had your day in the sun, now so long".

I remember when we were "down amongst the deadmen" I arrogantly referred to them in the company of a Latics supporting mate as "Disney" as they were a Mickey Mouse club at which point he rightly brought me down to earth by saying, "maybe so, but you are now in our Disney World"!

Good retort and completely correct.

Let's not lose our respect for others as if it were not for a last minute loan we could be out of business now and looking up at them!

I can see Jim argument about how , Wigan have come from a non league club club to a top flight club in a short space of time.
Like I say what was the point of getting Wigan up to the top with no supporters .
This is we`re Jim you lose the argument .

Laughable - is that from this week's programme? Hilarious attempt at the old "I've got [insert ethnic minority] mates".
