What can you say about Arjan De Zeeuw that hasn’t been said already? This won’t be the only tribute to the Latics captain and I would imagine that all of them will cover pretty much the same ground. You’ll have read words like legend; hero and colossus banded about and possibly questioned how quickly fans […]
Ok, so Paul Jewell’s departure might not have been that much of a surprise but I bet you his replacement was. Maybe not so much that Chris Hutchings has taken over the hot seat, but that the decision was taken seemingly within minutes of Jewell’s departure was very un-Latics like. It would have been much […]

Sheff Utd 1-2 Latics Sunday 13th May 2007 Events of the last 24 hours may have distracted a little from goings on at Bramhall Lane but it would be doing everyone involved a great disservice if we forgot to mention the final day achievements of the rabble that had previously done so much to add […]

If the rest of this season is anything to go by then this game is already a lost cause. Sheffield United have proved themselves up for a fight, Latics haven’t, but the rest of the season no longer matters. In fact Sunday is our season and our only chance to get things right. It’s our […]
As the countdown to what could be remembered as one of the more controversial relegations in Premier League history continues Latics fans can at least be distracted by another set of legal shenanigans. After much mulling about, FIFA has finally got around to setting a value on the debacle that was Andy Webster’s transfer from […]
‘The buck stops here’, a rare case of a politician telling the truth, but also a statement that has resonance in many walks of life. More than anything it is a phrase that Paul Jewell should spend some time pondering on as he plans the next phase of his managerial career. It may well do […]
Depending on how long you’ve been following Latics it’s possible that you’ve attended bigger games than Sunday’s. You won’t, however, have attended one with quite as much financial significance. There may be three teams still chasing that last relegation spot but Latics are clearly in the box seat. For us more than anyone, the maths […]
