I am from the camp that realises that we are Wigan Athletic, we are unfashionable, we have not got the funds of other teams (or debt, thank God), we are disliked by the establishment and the media, we have been in the league for 33 years and have acheived more than some clube that have been around for over a 100 years, we will take hidings and pull off some surprises, I will still be watching Wigan Athletic even if we get relegated on the lowest number of points recorded.
How can we think we will be able to compete for a top 6 finish is beyond me. It might happen once as a one off dream season, a la Fulham, but every season, no chance
I’m in neither of those, and I think you should have added some middle ground in that poll.
I’m of the group that thinks that we should be aiming for a mid-table or top-half finish every year, and making sure we beat the teams around us (geographically and statistically) convincingly.
It’s foolish to think that we should be challenging for Europe every season – we don’t have the kind of funds and because of the nature of the signings we make, we’ll never have the team to cope with it, because we practically have to rebuild every year.
