End to end excitement; Latics won 3 - 2 after a thrilling roller coaster

Three more points in the bag

Latics and Bolton two yo yo teams to swap places again then next season again. Both too good for league one but awful in the Championship.

Well done, we've played well and deserve it

Great performance from the boys. Go the latics

Congrats Latics please just keep this going then you will be back in the championship bravo!

Cup Goals

Bravo Wigan Athletic trouncing Bournmouth 3-0 in 3rd round of F.A.Cup replay they have another good chance of going on a bit farther with a home tie against WEST HAM again well done Wigan.By all account's they deserved it too !!

We did deserve it, we played well.

Att 4,709

PETERq. Funny enough my misse's and i were talking about this very subject of the attendance, which was (( Can the F.A. explain to me just what do they expect of the fans? Any one in there right mind could and should have guessed that a replay on a Wednesday night K.O. 8.00pm would not attract hardly any fans this is taking into tthe fact the weather which was again foul ,but mainly to ask the Bournmouth fans to travel 250 plus mile's is simply ridiculous)) Peter i ask you would you travel that distance on a winter's night?? As for myself forget it! So we will have to see the attendance for the WEST HAM game any guesse's. OH WELL DONE WIGAN.

G B.

The last thing the F A think of is the fans and the many problems they encounter on traveling especially on the over crowded motorways.

Even so i was surprised at the low attendance but i suppose cost is a big factor.

Disappointing crowd, I thought there would have been more on while we were playing a premiership side.

Another great win for Wigan Latics
LOOK

Goals at Plymouth
HERE

ANOTHER fantastic win for us.

We truly are the people

'Some people'?

Even the Plymouth manager said we are to good for that league

I hope we can cause another upset today

Latics smash West Ham 2 - 0 in FA cup game

Look


Goals to follow

basil brush ... you got your wish Well done the latics

Wigan v Manchester City fa Cup
Bring it on

Link

Nope, not looking forward to this one bit! (for obvious reasons).

No disrespect to the Latics, they have had a great season, but somehow can't see City cocking this up.....

I don't know about that bassman, City are more than capable of screwing things up.

But that is part of the fun in being a City fan.

And still no post on this thread from Wigan Worlds most well known Ex Latics "season ticket holder" who only lives "five minutes from the ground"

No wonder he ain't got the gall to mention "glory hunters" anymore.

chatty posted a pics of your tickets yet? THOWT NOT PLASTIC.. yet you think you have the gaul to question others

If you hadn't told me you NEVER lie (not counting the 18 months you swore you wasn't kellysdad obviously) I would have more than a sneaky suspicion that you don't really have me on "ignore"

Tonight's League One game between Bristol Rovers and Wigan has been postponed because of freezing temperatures in Bristol.

LOOK

Good, now we can concentrate on the Blackburn game.

Good thinking BB

The Blackburn v Wigan game is being shown live on Sky Sports Football on Sunday , kicking off at 12 Noon

Wigan Athletic's FA Cup quarter-final against Southampton will be played on Sunday, March 18 (1.30pm)...same day as the Run Wigan Festival (some roads closed etc)...BBC's call, club had no say...everyone working hard (with Wigan Council) to ensure minimum disruption. #wafc

Well spotted Basil , could be problems if the routes run close to the DW Stadium , especially with a 1.30pm Kick Off ?

Latics lucky to make a draw today; coming from 2 nil down

I thought B/Rovers where the better team
BBC report

Couldn't disagree more cordyline, first 20 minutes Blackburn got out of theif half twice, (two clinical finishes all the same) after that third goal was always going to be crucial, Latics got it and a win wouldn't have been a mugging for Blackburn.

Plain to see evidence of the club Powell was taught his good habits judging by the game today.

Perhaps chatty can advise me the club in question given his football knowledge .

well done the Latics.

Cup game on Sunday against Southampton is on BBC telly

Kicks off at 1 -30

Big game tonight more important

Phew !!
We left that a tad late

Bradford v Wigan

Good win for us, that, boost us up for the game against Southampton

Good win tonight 3 nil against Walsall
LOOK

2nd in league now
2 good goals against Bury today
Watch

I take my hat off to the Latics, they could easily have fell flat after the Southampton game, points on the board always trump games in hand for me (especially when the pressure is on) but they won their next two and it's in their hands.

top of the third division how exciting

Exciting enough for you to take the trouble of commenting on it

Latics back at number one with THIS fine performance against Oldham

After supporting the Latics through their Cheshire League and Northern Premier League years , I'm very excited and satisfied to be top of the Third Division , along with everything achieved along the way too

Watchalot and the team you support home and away is ... ? This season has been great. Paul Cook, his staff and the players have been a joy to watch this season

i too have supported the latics from their lancashire comb days, and i'm also excited about this season after the dross served up by warren joyce previously. full marks to paul cook, he is playing the game the right way, win or lose he is having a go. i think i can speak for the majority of fans, they are a pleasure to watch, long may it continue.

Tony Those of us that watched Latics during their Non League days , saw struggling times in the lower divisions of the Football League and gave what we could afford to Latics Lifeline in the early 80's , are more then happy to see us top of Division Three , something we could never have envisaged 40 years ago !

i agree with everything you say rover. we've had a fantastic ride, long may it continue.

Latics are on Sky sports on Monday

Portsmouth v Wigan Athletic

Kick off 17:30

Top of league again after beating Rochdale 1 - 4

Blackburn only managed a draw

Fantastic couple of wins for us, up the tics ✅

Can't believe theres not loads of comments about how good we're doing.

We truly are the people

Basil , it's probably because most of the Latics fans who view this site are old and wise enough to know that nothing has been achieved yet and the top three places may only be decided on the last day of the season . But yes , Latics have been brilliant this season and a joy to watch after last seasons awful campaign , let's hope we can go up as Champions , because they deserve to do

Latics are having a really good season and are doing it playing good football, to good for the league they are in.

rover, i agree with everything you've said, i'm not taking anything for granted, i'm sure there will be more twists and turns before the season end, but hopefully, we will get there. it's a shame though, one of the three teams will miss out, which surely must be a record, for number of points,and not get promoted.

It's still 2 from 3 for the automatic promotion places.

The team that eventually misses out on automatic promotion will have accumulated miles more points than positions 4,5 and 6 and should be a shoo-in. BUT........

Good luck Latics, from a Wigan Warriors fan who would love you to get back up into the Championship.

...I thought you were an old Evertonian?

How odd ?

Go the Latics

Latics promoted today after beating the Cod Army nil - 4
Well done

LINK

They'll end up yo-yoing with Bowton again like they've done for the last few seasons and next year will be the same. Not good enough for Championship and too good for League One both of them.

how the hell do you know ?? stick to your own team, don't pass judgement on issues that don't concern you.

Truth hurts does it Latics not played in the same league for a few years now down up down up. Bolton same.

the truth dosen't hurt me at all, the thing what's narking you, is the latics got promotion,and you don't like it.

As a Wiganer I'm chuffed at Latics going up but are they strong enough to stay there this time.

who knows what will happen next season, time will tell. in my opinion , if we can keep our better players and also our manager and strengthen the squad, i see no reason why we can't hold our own, it's all conjecture.

Good luck for next season then.

cheers

My old dad who will have the 100 anniversary of his birth this year would be so proud of the Latics efforts this season. Promotion to the Championship, nocking Man City out of the FA CupDad will have a big smile on his face , as well as 2 other EPL sides. MY Dad will have a big smile on his face . Long way from Lancs Combination at Springfield Park Dad. Hope you are loving this up there.
Love you Dad

Yes !!
Latics end the season with a good win over Donny
Clear 2 points ahead of rivals Blackburn

Well done

Well done.

Well done iatics, well deserved

Now we can celebrate Tony Well done the Latics , Paul Cook and his excellent Management Team , very proud of this season's many achievements

Well done Latics looks like Bowton are swapping places with them again losing with about 6 mins to go. UPDATE Bowton just scored 2 in 2 mins winning now.

Here is the GOAL

That made Latics top of League

my belated congratulations for a memorable season,well done the tics.
