All I can say is wow! Lowly Wigan beats the mighty ManU and likely avoids relegation. Some way to avoid going down and they were robbed of a goal in first half!
justify their position in the league.

warmers! and Man Chitty as well. Best teams to watch are Arsenal and Tottenham and
sometimes Liverpool when they get it right.

Originally posted by robbie carrobieNO argument there! A patsy is nothing like a pansy. It's what we call a weak team in Yankland. Of course there are bottom dwellers everywhere, yet Wigan played with a vigor and conviction rarely seen against a top flight team. I admits ManU seemed flat, but they're like a coiled snaked, lull you then bam! I see many more patsies in SerieA and in La Liga. I've been enjoying football this NFL off season. How about ManCity with that tumor removed? 4-0 against W.Brom, a real patsie, but with Balotelli in line up they would have looked listless and anemic! I am glad Arsenal beat them and Song did not suffer injury from thug Balotelli!

I hate that people are not jumping on the Wigan bandwagon, i've been saying for the past 3 season what sort of a team they are... wait and watch them lose to Fulham next week. In the past 3 season they've been the same, beaten spurs and Chelsea then lost to little teams like Bolton or Stoke.

Originally posted by Trev33Never fails, Trev33, never fails! I think they are very well coached, play very ahrd against the big boys, but indeed may lose against Fulham or Stoke! Reminds me of the mighty Yankees losing to then Washington Senators, lowliest team in MLB. Senators would always lose to the patsies then beat the Evil Empire(Yankees) handily!

Originally posted by Trev33A bit like the team I support, then - they can beat Ajax one day and lose to NAC (who are they?) the next.

Which team do you support... i don;t pay enough attention to the Dutch league to tell you who the Wigan are to be honest.

I have no idea if they could really be called "the Wigan" of Dutch football, but they do have a habit of being giant-killers one week and losing abjectly to their direct ranking rivals the next.
