The Supporters come together again to spur Latics on
It was a brilliant performance and tremendous result for Wigan Athletic at Reading this weekend, but despite this, the going will be tough for the remaining matches of the run in to the end of the season.
A run that can change things

You’ll Win Nothing With Kids
In what can only be described as an unfortunate case of circumstance, the Huddersfield Town vs Wigan Athletic match occurred on the same weekend as the Huddersfield Giants vs Wigan Warriors clash. Whilst the constant reminders of this only served to prove that we will never manage to shake the ‘rugby town’ tag, the respective results of the games suggest that Wigan does also have a football team to be proud of.

Reading the various comments on the message board about whether we would be better off being relegated, I thought I’d have a look at what second tier football is actually like. So on Monday evening I went to watch a second level game.
Could Charles Tear Us Apart?
When he was the Latics’ talisman, the Wiganers paid tribute to Joy Division by declaring how the opposition would be torn apart by Charles. Often, this claim turned out to be correct, and I couldn’t help but think as his free-kick curled majestically past Jussi Jaaskelainen on Sunday afternoon that maybe, his Aston Villa career could be blossoming at just the wrong time.
Comeback Kings
Although the transfer deadline day only served to remind us Wiganers how unpopular and unglamorous our club is through several reported rejections from targets including John Stones and Aiden McGeady; we did manage to bring an old face back to the DW: Mr Paul Scharner.
From Macclesfield With Love
In the middle of another typically arduous season, what the doctor ordered for Latics fans was a trip down memory lane. The FA Cup Fourth Round tie at Macclesfield provided exactly that in what was billed as the tie of the round. Would it deliver?
Bring a friend to Southampton
As a loyal Wigan Athletic Believer, Phoenix and Blue are asking for your help to spread the word of Latics and show all your mates just how good a match day is at the DW Stadium.
