I've never started one of these before so here goes with what was written in the latest H&V.
I've never started one of these before so here goes with what was written in the latest H&V. Another famous old club fallen on hard times. Or alternatively, a club who got bankrolled out of all proportion to where they should be and are falling back where they belong now, even if they did bounce upwards last season. Don’t expect many of them, because Wigan folk don’t go in for that soft southern nancy’s game and prefer watching wrestling with a ball. After they won the FA Cup in 2013 they sold a massive 5,500 tickets for the Charity Shield so clearly their regular supporters took all their friends. Their new manager, like ours, is a graduate of the Alex Ferguson School of Managerial Miseries, but ours has undergone a remarkable transformation in the past two months whereas theirs has merely moved from one under-achieving north-western club to another. Expect to see Ryan Giggs linked with a coaching post here on a weekly basis and the manager’s job whenever they lose. They’re going down. Our good run will still be running. The result is a formality, even though they were a bogey side of ours in the days before we had nineteen bogey sides. At the risk of regular repetition, this is the sort of game we’ve got to win without really trying. Things newfooty fans won’t know: How Wigan managed to con us out of nine and a half million pounds, an amount that looks no better in words than in numbers, for Charles N’Zogbia. Again, neither does anyone else.
