Wigan 4-0 Blackpool: Paint She Sweet

Emmerson Boyce is truly the Ringo Starr of football. Despite the fact he was narrator of the multi award-winning Thomas The Tank Engine, poor old Starsky will only ever be known as ‘the fourth best drummer in the Beatles’. Similarly, Boycey has been typecast as a Wiganer, even though he has made just as many […]

PWU Wigan Athletic Podcast No. 64: Will Keane be Coyle’s perfect foil?

Ladies and gentlemen, JWAW announces its triumphant return to cheesy headline writing with the imminent arrival of Manchester United’s Will Keane. Not that we’ve ever been away, but young Will (not to be confused with Will Young) has an extremely tabloid-friendly surname which you might be hearing a few more times before we’re Banned From […]

Burnley 1-3 Wigan: Latics grab the spoils

A question of ethics for you all now. You’re in position to slot the ball into the back of the net, but the opposing goalkeeper is lying injured on the ground. Is it morally right or just plain stupid to kick the ball out of play for the goalie to have treatment, when you have […]
