Just been talking to someone who works at Wigan infirmary,they saw Watson being wheeled from xray on a trolley,he is on Orrell ward,has broke his leg.Being taken to Liverpool hospital they think,why i don’t know nor did they.Awful news for Ben and Latics.
Judging by the crack I heard last night, I think that is the single most unsurprising piece of news I have heard in my entire adult life. ;)
He’s probably being moved to Liverpool away from prying eyes and keyboards.[/quote]
So you have xray eyes and saw it was a break straight away.Wow I know you think your God but don’t think anyone knew until scans etc.Not prying eyes just passing him by,he unlike you was very pleasant.
Also he is going to a place in Liverpool called Shaw,a private one,so no one can get at him because Griff says so.[/quote]Nope, no x-ray eyes, just not surprised, as many others have already said not just me, from the noise, the reaction of other players from both teams, the medical staff, it was fairly obvious that it wasn’t a twisted sock.
And they are likely to be less interested and giddy about Watson in a Liverpool private hospital so that doesn’t surprise me either.
Don’t get all upset now, just because no-one is impressed with your scoop.

We play nicely on here now. But, most people don’t ignore me – you clearly can’t sweet cheeks, can you?
19 February 2014 at 10:10 pm #127572Good question.I think Wigan could let let the contact expire, but keep paying his wages until he has recovered.
When he has recovered, they could offer him a new contract or formally release him.
Sadly for Ben, I think you’re right. Because depending on how he recovers, there is no guarantee that they will now offer him a new contract in June.
This will be a test of Whelan, the hard-nosed business man – will he abandon his ruthless, cold business logic and show some compassion for a fellow broken limb-ee against his better judgement? Doubt it.
19 February 2014 at 11:17 pm #127576There must be some insurance policies too.
But who they would benefit, I don’t know.
19 February 2014 at 11:47 pm #127577Guess for these players that wont sign a contract its a risk they take. For me he isnt one of our best midfielders but has seldom let the side down.
20 February 2014 at 1:08 am #127582Typical, playing some of his best football recently and now he’s out for the rest of the season.
Personally, thought the Barnsley player should have been booked for that challenge. It was a tad late and a bit reckless.20 February 2014 at 3:05 pm #127603I have someone on the inside at the hospital he is staying at who hands me info and I can reveal that last night Ben left his strawberry yoghurt after his tea as he was fully sated !
20 February 2014 at 4:35 pm #127609Did he have a hearty breakfast?
21 February 2014 at 12:19 am #127620Did he have a hearty breakfast?2 poached eggs on toast ! He did however turn down his mid morning snack of tea and biscuits as ironically he doesn’t like ginger nuts ! :blink:

No royalty as of yet but this guy popped in for some moral support !
21 February 2014 at 3:16 pm #127635I see that Sir Alex now has the great pleasure of sitting next to Mick Hucknall at matches.
Perhaps Mick might pop in one day.
7 March 2014 at 2:33 am #128187Injured midfielder Ben Watson has agreed terms on a one-year contract extension with Wigan Athletic.
Seems a reasonable deal for Ben in the circumstances.
7 March 2014 at 12:17 pm #128197Good to see us standing by the player.
7 March 2014 at 3:31 pm #128208Good to see us standing by the player.Is he back on his feet again already?
