stemik 14 Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 So Wigan are relegated, it's a shame because I have grown to like them as a kind of second team. Link to post Share on other sites

grungy-gonads 54 Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Too bad pie-eater. I hope you guys can keep a decent team and get back up. It can be done. Link to post Share on other sites

NoFakie 45 Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Hard to bear Wigan. Fwiw, I think I would actually take Newcastle being relegated if we won the FA Cup. A pact with the Devil may our only chance of silverware. The biggest difference with the Second Division is that the strikers are much worse. You can make defensive errors and they won't be punished. Some shocking officials too.With their current philosophy, Wigan could do well. Link to post Share on other sites
pie-eater 207 Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 I see your point....., but I think I'd rather stay in the PL myself. Hopefully we can make it back to the top league quickly. Link to post Share on other sites
scouser 4 Posted May 15, 2013 Author Share Posted May 15, 2013 Sorry to hear that this morning pie-eater. As someone else said hope you can hold on to a decent squad and make it back up. Link to post Share on other sites

Tubby Beaver 209 Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Relegation is rough on the fans. TBH though I'm kinda glad that Wigan are down, they never really make a fist of it until the end of the season.....WTF is that all about?! They have been sailing close to the wind for a long long time and probably really should've been relegated before. (of course I feel sorry for you Pies) Link to post Share on other sites
Alexander L 80 Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Sorry to hear that this morning pie-eater. As someone else said hope you can hold on to a decent squad and make it back up. Nice thought, but how will that happen? Not enough money to retain them, players wanting to play in the premier league etc. etc. Link to post Share on other sites
NoFakie 45 Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 This is a couple of years' old but is a detailed look into Wigan's finances. The ones about other teams are interesting too. http://swissramble.blogspot.jp/search/label/Wigan%20Athletic Apparently 33 teams, or one and a half divisions' worth, of teams have won a domestic cup since Newcastle last did in 1955. I'm not looking it up, but I guess we'll have been relegated at least five times in that period. Last silverware was the Fairs Cup/UEFA/Europa League thing in 1969 so just in my lifetime! Aside from that, there's just the second division title and the Intertoto Cup. Link to post Share on other sites

Alexander L 80 Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 oh yeah. Wonder if they'll deem it worthy of pretecting next season or will they go for the proper trophy. Link to post Share on other sites

grungy-gonads 54 Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 Becks retires. One article... The trailblazing midfielder - who played for some of the biggest clubs in the world such as Manchester United, Real Madrid, AC Milan and Los Angeles Galaxy... :lol: Link to post Share on other sites

rach 1 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 I used to love Becks in those long ago days when he had floppy blond hair, you could actually still see his skin, oh yeah and when he was a brill player! Link to post Share on other sites
brit-gob 9 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Well, there's the 3rd, 4th and 5th place to determine. Link to post Share on other sites
NoFakie 45 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 A belated congrats to Chelsea. Maybe Torres had a dodgy pie or something because that was a flashback to the days of old. Also great to see JT making a fool of himself again. The biggest joke with the Europa League though is that CL clubs are allowed to drop into it. Like, err, both finalists this year. Great to see Fwank get that Chelsea record. He's now fourth top scorer in Prem history. From midfield as well! Link to post Share on other sites
