Wigan welcomed fellow releagtion candidates Sunderland to an icy DW Stadium seeking to punch a hole in a set of worrying statistics which had seen one win in nine, no clean sheet at home this season and only two home wins out of eleven games form whoich if it continued would surely see the smallest […]
A wonderful goal from Mauro Boselli sealed Wigan’s win and an away tie at Macclesfield with a one nil away win at Bournemouth.
Wigan made the long trip to Fulham, with Roberto Martinez after the poor performance from a much changed team against Bournemouth, reverting back in the main to the team that started against Manchester United .
