Little Wigan had 8 seasons in the Premier League and won the FA Cup but we have no delusions of grandeur. And we're are you now ? Your not a big club you were just punching above your weight for a long time . Well done on the past successes your Club has achieved but I'm afraid that's all they are.

Hopefully we will survive to play you next season (if you don't get promoted). A bit of banter is good between fans. I have fond memories of visiting the Baseball Ground in the late 60s and certainly don't have any animosity towards your club. Good one . No hard feelings hope the ex Derby players help to keep you up mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laticman Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Thanks. We live in the shadow of the rugby team and the four big Manc / Scouse teams but we are doing ok. No debt and a decent stadium and certainly no ideas above our station. I remember watching Wigan in the Northern Premier League so what we've achieved since has been a sensation. The FA Cup win was the best day of my life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkle Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 51 minutes ago, Laticman said: If you are stupid enough to stump up £5m for Wildschut I'd snatch your hand off. He's a one trick pony Derby fans and won't improve your team. Now he's handed in a transfer request I hope he goes. You need to hope he doesn't land at Derby. Oh heck here we go again 44 minutes ago, PodgeyRam said: When Wigan played us at Pride Park he was their standout player and you can see why McClaren might want him - powerful , direct runner, who's pace will cause defenders problems. My concern is that he doesn't seem to have much of an output in terms of assists or goals. At the price being quoted I would want more proven quality than just 'runs fast and direct'. Less goals in his entire career than Russell has scored at Derby alone, and he's only a year younger than Russell. I'd pass, especially for £6 million. Expensive for a place on the bench ultimately 26 minutes ago, Laticman said: Still won the FA Cup matey Yes well done, I wish I could watch my team do that I really do.

Had a bit of time for Wigan ever since the promotion race from Div 3 in 1985/6 (?). Hope you stay up. At the expense of Forest. It's like Derby reserves up there now anyway. I'd love Wildschut down here though. Rate him on what I've seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rample Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Sky reporting we're keen and in talks but the fee of up to £6m is an issue. Norwich also interested. Maybe that depends on Brady going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MackworthRamIsGod Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 I can't see us signing Wildschutt, both Macclaren and Rush seemed pretty genuine when they said we were happy and we won't be making any moves. Norwich clearly have money to spend if Brady goes so that will be his obvious destination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heisenberg Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 "Derby. Pushing on with Yanic Wildschut thing. May be 5 plus a promotion bonus. Wigan under p to sell now." The latest from Nixon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

admira Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 If this goes through, could we see the Russell to Birmingham deal resurrected late on? That went very quiet. If he is left out tonight, that could be a pointer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
