Wigan in cruise control in Wigan over Reading.
Any fears that Wigan would be suffering from an F.A.Cup hangover were firmly dispelled in the early Spring sunshine at the DW Stadium today as Wigan strolled to victory with probably their best performance of the season in defeating Reading three nil. So dominant was Wigan’s performance that the Reading travelling support saved their […]
From the pier to Rio, the boys to Brazil
The winning of last seasons FA Cup has propelled my local club Wigan Athletic into the world’s football conscience. Now the biggest sporting event, eat your heart out the Olympics but the World Cup in Brazil starts in a few short weeks and this year’s tournament will have representatives of WAFC taking centre stage. […]
Roberto and the 96
“As a family, we couldn’t believe the pain and horror the families would get by receiving the news that their loved ones wouldn’t be coming home from a football match.

Macca for Wembley
Being ‘Man of the Match’ in an FA Cup Final can be hard to live up to. Callum McManaman knows that all too well. Just eleven months ago McManaman was the toast of the town as he led Gael Clichy and the Manchester City defence a merry dance at Wembley. He had not only […]
Wigan wheels come off as Millwall sneak unlikely win
Wigan slumped to a rare home defeat as a much changed side fell victim to a severely deflected goal in their battle to avoid relegation from the championship. Uwe Rosler made eight changes from the starting line up against Leeds but if the fans were hoping that the changes would show players busting a […]
Millwall Preview
Given the sheer volume of fixtures Wigan Athletic have had to play over the past months it is no wonder that their form has been intermittent. There have been matches where they have looked full of energy, playing enterprising football, followed another a few days later where they would appear jaded and placing an over-reliance […]
