Georgia Soccer Has A Good Signing Day, Too
You know, there was more than one "football" having its National Signing Day yesterday. Georgia's women's soccer team, whose fortunes are rising under the direction of Steve Holeman, added to its already-impressive roster with 7 signees, 3 of which are listed in the ESPN Top 150. A Georgia soccer...
Preview: Wigan vs Tottenham
Well five games into the new season, and already the pre-season hype is draining away from the squad. The last few performances have been flat and simply not good enough to gain points. That has to improve. There is no time like the present, and going into the game at home, where we have yet to be...
Di Santo Coming Of Age
The 22 year old strikers, was for the most part last season, the last person you would have expected to start scoring goals for the Latics. Yet 12 months on from his arrival at Wigan, the once flimsy and feeble young lad, has turned into a strong and confident forward. I have always said he has...
Wigan 1-3 Everton
Well I have put of writing this as much as I can. The result was not on keeping with the way we played for chunks of the game, but as is shown in football its the chances you take not make. It did all start so so well for Latics. Di Santo scoring his third goal of the season and looking in...
Preview: Wigan vs Everton
So after our one match campaign in the Carling Cup, its time to turn our attention back to the Premier League. The weekends opponets are Everton, who have had an up and down season so far. It gives Latics a chance to go out and correct the wrongs from the last two games and get some points on the...
Wigan 1-2 Crystal Palace
I have a feeling, and its rather strong, that the following post will turn into a slight rant instead of a match report. So before hand I apologise, but when your team goes out and plays how poorly Latics did, it hits certain nerves. First off I don't fault the management on the result, the seven...
Preview: Wigan vs Crystal Palace
Only three days after our first defeat of the new season, we head to championship side Crystal Palace for the Carling Cup second round. This years competition will yet again give the younger, and outer edge players to play and show Martinez what they are capable of. It is likely that most first...
Wigan 0-3 Manchester City
Could we have expected any thing other than a defeat? Really we played well and could have got something from the game. But as is the way with great teams, and City are becoming one, they can pull out results even on their worse of days. The game didn't go well from the start, and after thirteen...
Match Preview: Wigan vs Manchester City
So did you enjoy the break? For many, especially Latics fans I think not. It is always very annoying when you teams rhythm is stopped by a two-week break to play qualifiers. But as we now know England are all but over the line (as they should be), so back to domestic football. Our last game, saw a...
New Strips are In!
Love it or Loath it? Finally Latics fans can get hold of the clubs new 2011/12 football strip. After a delayed period where the club where unable to release the kit. It was brought out today, four days early than it was originally...
