Oh damn..

That will be bigger news than Obama getting re-elected.

Like I said, it could also mean that Enrique moves forward since he has been better attacking and good link up with Suarez and COutinho. Digne and Robbo can fight for the leftback spot whereby underperformance by either one could see themselves being replaced by Downing or Enrique.

wigan, win the cup but get relegated.....and they say roberto martinez is a great manager.

No money to spend, losing their best players but still can win silverware , still u cant accept the fact that he is a great manager. #enuffsaid

wigan 12/13 transfer

how is that no money to spend? fact is wigan got their priority wrong, simple as that. a great manager will not get his club relegated, and don't forget wigan have been fighting relegation almost every season since their promotion. to be fair, wigan play better football than stoke but the table do not lie, wigan deserved to be relegated.

I couldn't find any highlights for the match Liverpool against Fulham last week. Anyone here can share download link for highlights in HD?

Even if Enrique moves to wing to accommodate digne, Robbo still most likely surplus to requirement. GJ can always play on the left as Wisdom, Kelly, Flano & couple more youngsters are pushing hard for the spot, which means theoretically RB is well covered & GJ can cover for LB since he's versatile. I don't see Robbo starts ahead of GJ if Digne or any other new lb unavailable.
As you said, even Enrique can be moves back to LB as Coutinho/Downing operates from the left. Which means in the event new LB is brought in, most likely curtain down to Robbo progress in Reds which is a shame really.

Hi bro tiSSue_paPer

That one is full match download link, I been there already. Am looking for highlights only, ada tak?

I'm with you on this. Mr Gry seems to think that winning the cup is the most important thing. At least it's a win. That means relegating to 3rd division is no sweat. Just win the cup.

Like i mentioned before, If Digne or another LB joins, send Robbo out for another season's loan, if possible with a Premier league team. By the end of the season, he will be 21 and BR can gauge whether he is Liverpool material. IF not, he still can fetch 2-3mil in the market..

It's not easy to win a cup even more for a club like Wigan. Relegated but Wigan still have the financial ability to be good in the Championship and rebuild to come back up immediately. So i guess, some people will accept the cup anytime.

They will still play in the Europa League right? Maybe they will get relegated to League One but win the Europa?

Once you go down, you gonna frown because you ought to lose your best players

They may win the cup but they will lose players and struggle to come back. Great financial recoup for 1st year and then years of misery follows.

watched the great 80s last nite.

they talked abt our lost to Arsenal in 1989 last league game. it was 15 days after Hillsborough tragedy. Liverpool never recovered eversince.

what if the other way around, wigan fail to promote back to premier league? bolton, blackburn and wolves were 2011/2012 bpl teams but none of them were even in playoff. championship is much harder than you think in recent seasons.

by all means i'm not belittling their fa cup wins, winning against m.city convincingly is very impressive for a club like wigan. but it did get you think what will happen if wigan never had this distraction.

That's right. Championship division is not a walk in the park. Nobody can guarantee a top 6 finish for Wigan next season. Just look what happened to Bolton, Blackburn and Wolves as you said. They're lucky they're not in a dire situation financially or else they would have been like Leeds - down for so long and nowhere near to BPL promotion.

I'm not saying it will be easy.. but perhaps abit better if u have the financial power to withstand relegation. On the side note, i feel that Shebby screwed Blackburn. If they ever want to get back up, they need to sack him and perhaps a new owner.

Anyway, i believe everyone at Wigan were facing this situation of whether going all our for the cup or concentrating on survival. But if you had to choose on being on the verge of winning the first major trophy in the club's history, or survival, which will you choose? Good for the history book but now might be facing a big rebuilding. Difficult choiuce..

BTW, any Wigan players worth raiding?

McManaman

if you talk about financial strength, nobody can beat qpr in championship

+1 to McManaman
