That one is well wide of the mark surely??
Looking at the list on the bookies website id go for one of the utd coaches,Poyet or wait for it……………………Paul Jewell.
PJ not as daft as one as some people think and i think he has a point to prove.I’d go for Jewell simply because he can work with Whelan and he’d be very cheap and maybe has a point to prove after his recent disappointments.
He also working under the right conditions can produce winning teams and can anyone argue that the clubs most successful period (in terms of win percentages) came under him?
He will be in the frame that’s for sure.let’s hope Dulham and Joke get their just deserts next season for boring everybody to death! I expect palace to stay up although they may start badly.
Fair play to the Villa fans who made that banner-wont be any cracking away days at Carduff city and Dull next year-two of the most boring unfashionable clubs you could ever get! Add in Watford and possibly Palace and it makes for a great league next year doesn’t it??
At least we got people talking about us regardless and we were never dull!!!!He needs to sit tight and conduct the inevitable departures of our better players and start to build for next season and beyond.
Stoke city ???????????????????
A bit like muffin the mule appearing in a snuff movie-that(none) football clubso far removed from his principles and footballing ethos that to even imagine he will end up there fills me with dread.
Dont do it Roberto you are much better than that and far too much of a gentleman to have to put up with some of the issues allegedly going on at that club.
That said i have a sneaky feeling he will stay put although he will be under more pressure than he has ever been in since he came in 2009.With Latics crowds on average double Worriors crowds,FA Cup final,8 seasons in the Premier League etc etc…..
Is it not time this rediculous `media myth` that Wigan is a rugby town was put to an end once and for all.
Wigan is a football town with a rugby league.
Thats better.
It is a rugby and football town however the football club is larger now because of th exposure it has gained GLOBALLY from its presence in the EPL.
I will never forget being in a New York bar a few years back and a native giving me the rundown on the strengths and weaknesses of Latics.I also won’t forget the time in a Maltese back street when a little ice cream seller again told me his vast knowledge of Wigan and how he watched them regularly on telly.add to that 600 million watching us win the worlds oldest and greatest football tournament and that argument has been been laid to rest permanently if you ask me.
JOKE CITY what an embarrassment of a football club.
There demise is on the way next season believe me!This is my first post here, so hello to everyone. :)As my name suggests, I have supported the Latics all my life since the mid-seventies so have seen it all and to be quite honest apart from the first couple of years in the Premiership, I started to find it all quite dull and just a big excuse for the bottom half of the league to fund the top six and there european money making exploits … we were never really playing for anything for most of the season, until we needed our great escape routine, but all that did was start the cycle all over again.
As I stood to clap the lads at the final whistle at the Emirates I thought forward to next year and suddenly it was something to actually look forward to ….. the prospect of matches where any team could win, the local derbies, the chances of some young homegrown talent playing for the Latics again …… it would all start to mean something again.
I hope the manager stay, I hope we keep our players, but the reality of it is that we probably won’t – unless the draw of playing in Europe keeps them around until the January window opens ….. but what a chance to build a new team of heroes to support, the chance to see what this club and its supporters are really about.
Me and my three boys will be there next year come what may – supporting the Latics in what could be a brilliant year of football. Forget the Sky hype about the EPL, we are going back to real football !!!!
Real football indeed rather than a league set up to make as much money as possible for the Top Bores and the rest there to make the numbers up.
Great post well done!your star falls if you get relegated so at the moment although I’d say he’s staying.
that said if the club produces another Houdini act he would probably have. Few clubs knocking at the door.Bloke were I sit in ES2 shouts “how long?” every single game without fail .
Some of these clowns won’t be there next season anyway if the expected happens.The boo boys won’t be there next season and they need a reality check if you ask me!
This was an under strength Latics side that just came short on the night against a very good side and I was disappointed.
For a big chunk of the game we played well but I think nerves got the better of one or two players.
We have reached an FA cup final and got into Europe and done the best we can with an injury ravaged squad.
The club will still be here next season and we will win more games than we lose that’s for sure!
