Everton 3-1 Wigan: First-class Franco’s effort not enough for lukewarm Latics
All in all, it hasn’t been that great a week for Latics. Though on balance 3-0 represented a decent return against an in-form Man City steamrollering everything in their path, Tuesday’s abject Carling Cup performance away to Crystal Palace was a horrible reminder that Martinez’s Plan B mightn’t be fit for public consumption just yet.

Wigan 1-1 Everton: And then there were four?

Everton 2-1 Wigan: Damn your penalty proficiency, Bainsey
It’s always a killer when you concede in the last minute, and though we conceded three less today, this defeat hurt a lot more than the Manchester United result. Wigan were fortunate enough to hold out Everton for the first forty-five minutes, managing only one or two forays into the opposition half every now and […]
