Can Wigan Athletic overcome the odds once again? http://www.footandball.net/can-wigan-athletic-overcome-the-odds-once-again/
Well Blackburn did their part losing in injury time to Liverpool today. If Wigan can snag a point or three tomorrow against ManU, who with an 8 point lead may just be ripe for a defeat. QPR is at home against Swansea.
"....you can imagine they are two teams with similar football concepts and we both battle to get control over the football...there are chances and they(the games)are really exciting to watch...." Martinez is geared up for an interesting game greatly contested. but will Wigan pull through with players on injury and all that? http://managereview.blogspot.com/2012/12/martinez-seeks-win-since-november.html
Wigan is coming to America this July for matches against Columbus Crew (MLS) and Pittsburgh Riverhounds (USL-PRO). Should be interesting to see what the squad looks like in advance of the Championship season. http://triblive.com/sports/otherlocal/4258261-74/riverhounds-wigan-cup#axzz2XHb1McY6
