I can’t argue with your selections but I think that the 4-0 1st half demolition of Newcastle in 2012 also deserves a special mention.
I can’t argue with your selections but I think that the 4-0 1st half demolition of Newcastle in 2012 also deserves a special mention.The manner in which we hammered them was probably worthy of a mention but the fact that we beat Newcastle wasn’t such a huge surprise, I don’t think. In the five games I listed, we were such over-whelming underdogs, that’s what makes them stand out for me.
But, opinions and arseholes… everybody has ’em!
But, opinions and arseholes… everybody has ’em!As eloquent as ever I see !! ;)
These were the games we played back then
11 March: Norwich 1-1 Wigan
17 March: Wigan 1-1 West Brom
24 March: Liverpool 1-2 Wigan
31 March: Wigan 2-0 Stoke
7 April: Chelsea 2-1 Wigan
11 April: Wigan 1-0 Man Utd
16 April: Arsenal 1-2 Wigan
21 April: Fulham 2-1 Wigan
28 April: Wigan 4-0 Newcastle
To me the Newcastle game was the culmination of everything that came before it. The previous results despite the blip at Fulham meant they were full of confidence and it all came together to perfection in that 1st half.
Newcastle were 4th and strongly tipped for a Champions League spot and we took them apart with arguably our finest 45 minutes as an attacking force since God knows when.
Still like I said I can’t argue with your choices although as you appear to have a dislike of Liverpool I’m surprised you didn’t choose that game. :)

I think it is partly because I wasn’t there :(
There weren’t any turn-ups with Owen Coyle.He didn’t even wear long trousers.
Nice one. Nearly didn’t spot that. It got hemmed in between a couple of other posts
