Personally if I was to name my top 10 WAFC moments from the last 10 years then 6 are with Martinez at the helm.
Then you are not old enough lad, extend WAFC moments over the last 40 years and then see[/quote]
CORRECT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The only true legends are the fans, who have followed this club through good and bad, and will continue to follow this club no matter what. A football club is for life, not just the Premiership.
At least he didn’t sign during Roberto’s reign, otherwise he would have had to learn to move like a CRAB.
Now that he’s hooked and landed, is this the end of this thread.

Or can we still reel out a few more lines !
He’d better get his Skates on then, and Weever his way across the moors to Wigan. I bet he woke up and Smelt the coffee and thought I’ll give Owen a Ling and ask if I Shad bring my boots.
Perch update !Seems he saw the ‘Sturgeon’ and was told to ‘Dab’ a little cream on the ‘Sole’ of his feet and it ‘Shad’ will be ok, so the deal can go through.
When Coyle was told he stopped ‘Pouting’ and said ” I’ve been ‘Whiting’ for this news, that’s ‘Brill’, things were looking ‘Bleak’ for a while and it would have been ‘Ruffe on the lad if the transfer had fallen through.
Brilliant that, LMB.
You certainly put together a good John Dory. Up till now, transfer news was Bleak, but this will get us all Rockling.
At this rate he could get in our Bream Team, but if he’s a duffer he’ll have to make do with the Tench.
All that “Believing Stuff” came to no good.
I never thought we’d win the FA Cup – but we did. So it must have worked to some extent.[/quote]
I never believed we would win a game last season never mind win the FA Cup.
I still have to pinch myself, and still haven’t got a clue how we managed to win it. If we are honest we were lucky to beat Bournemouth early on.
I think the players deserve tremendous credit for the way they performed in the last 3 rounds, and I suppose RM must have had some input, so well done Bob as well.[/quote]YES ! but what about a new Anthem !
And Owen does look comical standing on the touchline in his shorts. I wonder if he’ll be tempted to turn out and play again, or perhaps wear something more dignified.”I think he’ll wear a complimentary pair of light tan shoes and ankle socks with his shorts !
He can wear what he likes, as long as the Tics get back to winning ways; even a kilt with his tan shoes !

Why are you so ungrateful? Can’t you bring yourself to say anything charitable about Roberto?.Err pardon, I’ve been very supportative of Roberto during his time as a player & Manager at Wigan; almost man love; just ask HORC. However, my unconditional loyalty looks misplaced, since he has dumped us for greener grass; so maybe it’s time to take off my Roberto tinted spectacles and be honest about his brand of football, tactics, etc. Yes, thanks for the FA Cup; but he didn’t exactly plan it that way. We scraped through the first three games and only got serious at the quarter final stage.
My original thread was really aimed at people slagging off OC before we have even kicked a ball; probably the same people that have moaned about RM for the last 4 years. I’m not one of them, I always endeavour to support the Manager & Players for better or worse !
What were the Wigan results against Bolton during the reign of these managers. I certainly remember getting tonked at the Reebok over Christmas 2011. Can anyone recall the positives that Roberto took from that game ? Was he proud of the performance; did we “grow into” the game ( by the 89th minute ).Why is everyone so touchy ? Just trying to draw a comparison between us and Bolton at the time, because I thought that Bolton under Coyle were a stubborn team to beat. I for one will be supporting Coyle from the off and give him a chance to prove himself. Like Donny’s Page said in an earlier post, surely he can’t be any worse than Roberto. I really wanted Roberto to succeed and be an all time Latics Legend, but I think he “bluffed it” for the past two years and only survived so long because of the man love that DW afforded him. I now think that DW played a subtle game to oust Roberto without losing too much face after all the public loyalty that was spouted. If he’d really wanted to keep Roberto, he would have pulled out all the stops.
Can it? Surely not.
Apart from the odd game..pretty poor and boreing football with one up front. Hardly any wins. Terrible at home and very negative with tippy tappy football going backwards. One or two bright spells at the end of seasons when we went positive through shear desperation. Surely it can not be any worse under this new mon or can it?Spot on Donny; will’ta be gooin next season ?
I reckon a tenner on Latics for promotion and a tenner on Everton for relegation !
Heard yesterday that our new Manager will be on a £2m bonus if he achieves promotion back to the Prem at the first attempt. If that is true then DW is wise to dangle that £2m carrot, rather than fork out £1.7m when nothing has been achieved yet !
