8am Well its not turned out to be as critical as hoped as the Arsenal defeat signalled the end of our premier league tenure thereby removing the stress and tension that has been associated with last day of the season escapes.
7am Saturday , no work but no lie in as son is working today, pick up my Independent and even though Saturday’s edition has articles on the previous weeks football from well respected columnists our F.A.Cup win and subsequent relegation don’t even rate a mention. No mention of Bob either on going or staying. Mood […]
7am Its Friday which is always a positive, early morning caffeine shot always tastes better on a Friday and last game of season looms. I wonder if we will play in next season’s kit to publicise it before its launched? I suspect not as they wont want it to be associated with relegation. Fresh start […]
7am Spent a good part of the night thinking about the future of Wigan. I have no doubt a percentage of fans will stop attending which is a shame as the club has worked hard to build its fan base. We have the highest number of under 16 season ticket holders of current Premier League […]
7am Wake up with a sinking feeling in my stomach, yes it wasn’t a nightmare we really have been relegated after 8 seasons of ups and downs the fat lady finally sang and we will be supporting a club plying its trade in the Championship next season. Receive a myriad of texts from fellow fans […]
I’m not normally one for facts and figures but if you’re looking to try and salvage happiness from the gloom of Tuesday night, why not have a read below. It might just make you realise what a huge event Saturday was. Just in case you were in any doubt….
7.30am Here I am sat staring into space ( well SSN but I am sure you understand) with a cup fo coffee in my hand psyching myself up for another day at work, one which will bring a football game which we have to win to stay up, no draws , no losses, a win […]
7am – 8am The calm before the storm, a day when very little is likely to happen in terms of Latics. I turn on SSN to hear the platitudes towards Wigan’s magnificent performance at Wembley. But no instead its wall to wall Manchester with talk on United’s final home game for Ferguson and the new […]
8.45am Wake up this morning, tired plus aching after approx ten hours driving. Apparently Wigan was buzzing last night. I wonder how many kids will be christened Ben when they are born in 9 months time as a direct result of last night’s celebrations Mood …………………………contemplative stress levels 10%
7am So I awake to possibly the biggest day in Wigan Athleitc’s history. Our much maligned fans and our embattled team are off to Wembley for the F.A.Cup final with Manchester City. Another early start dog walking wise, many Latics fans armed with assorted carrier bags looking half asleep making their ways to various pick […]
