The flames of Malky’s fire sale have now subsided. Only the embers remain of the most successful era in Wigan Athletic history. Is there method in this apparent madness in selling off the family silver? Does Mackay know what he is doing? In what direction is the club heading? Malky Mackay may well be the […]
Of course we would ALL like to watch a Ajaxbarcabrazillianesque style of football week in week out but in truth it is the end result that matters the most. Forums, Twitter and phone-ins are awash with angry folk when their team suffers a defeat not with what the style of the 1-0 victory was like. […]
*Downgraded from 12th Man due to squad shrinkage The end of the world or the beginning of a new dawn? A lot can change in a week. Emotions can be all over the place. Last Saturday’s feeble capitulation to a very poor Huddersfield side was magnified by an abrupt player exodus. Not just any players […]
Ah yes, Stan McEwan. The bloke must have been on wages of a hundred grand a week given the number of people who claim to have thrown money into the famous collection buckets. I will try and probably fail to keep this brief in case in the hope it can somehow by read by a […]
Depression reigns at Wigan. Dreams of getting back into the top flight are now a thing of the past. The harsh reality is that League 1 is getting scaringly close, following a woeful 1-0 home loss to Huddersfield Town. Is Malky Mackay the right man to get Latics out of the relegation mire?

1. Sack Mackay Or agree to terminate by mutual consent. It’s not worked. It’s never worked and it never will work. Those charges hanging over him are preventing him from doing his job. He has not moved up north by all accounts and is not likely to either. We have made mistakes in the past […]
Well, well looks like we have another must win game on the horizon. There is of course a counter argument which states that there is no such thing as a “must win” game when there are twenty games left. However, the only team we are getting any closer to is the one team who are […]

Despite that William Kvist made a successful return, playing the full 94 minutes against Blackburn Rovers on Saturday. Why had the Denmark captain been left out in the cold for so long? Can he become a regular […]
