So here we go, ready to do it all again? It feels like this season has come around quicker than any previously, and that’s probably true. Thanks to the winter World Cup it means we’ll be starting earlier than ever before and finishing later than ever before, with a near month long break in the […]
April 9th saw Wigan Athletic travel to Lincolnshire to face Lincoln City, a 3-1 win over Michael Appleton’s side coupled with defeat for Rotherham at Charlton would see Latics strengthen their grip on top spot in League One. It had been a strong seven days for Leam Richardson, a hard earned draw over the best […]
Nearly there Wigan, nearly there. One last push is all it will take, one last stretch through tired legs and those legs are tired now. Don’t let anyone tell you this Wigan Athletic side aren’t deserving of promotion if it does indeed come this Saturday. A team that had four contracted players at the start […]
Seven points in a week, seven points ahead of Rotherham with five games remaining. Back in February when we were staring down the barrel of a month’s worth of matches to fit in and Rotherham sweeping everything aside it’s a position we’d have taken when offered it every day of the week. But for some […]
Another game, another week closer. There’s not much left now standing between Wigan Athletic and a return to the Championship. Seven matches remain which will determine our fate this season and after the absolute heartbreak of 2020/21 it’s amazing to think where we could be after that Shrewsbury match. That was the only sour point […]
So here we are again, the business end of the season. The run in, the final furlong, the finishing line in sight – it’s hard to think that the season has just four weeks left to run. After the awful circumstances in which we spent last season locked out of a stadium that we didn’t […]
Nothing is guaranteed but Wigan Athletic have taken a big stride towards a Championship return in the last week. A hard earned point at Milton Keynes (that really should have been all three) followed by a steady if unspectacular win against Crewe and Saturday’s dispatch of Morecambe sees Latics going in to the final run […]
Ten games left, ten cup finals, ten games in order to right the horrific wrongs of the summer of 2020. Can Latics do it? On the evidence of the last week – most definitely. As disappointing as the penalty shoot out defeat to Sutton was, Leam and the lads followed up in the best way […]
Oh dear, so despite the hype there’s no triumphant Wembley return for Wigan Athletic this year. I couldn’t make the final (if we’d have reached it) so maybe wasn’t as invested in the semi-final with Sutton as the rest of the fan base last night. I’m disappointed for everyone who was looking forward to a […]
We’ve not had many crises this season. If any at all, I suppose not winning on a Tuesday was an irritant more than anything else. But after each defeat this season we’ve managed to bounce back and once again Latics did that on Tuesday night against Fleetwood. Sunderland was probably the low point of the […]
