Wigan 2-2 Tottenham: The power of positive thinking
Phew, it’s getting a bit tight now, isn’t it? As phenomenally demoralising as last weekend might have been, Latics once again had the chance to pull themselves clear of that media mosh pit that is the relegation zone. It sounds a bit weird, but just like last week, Aston Villa play on Monday so three […]

Progress With Unity Wigan Athletic Podcast No. 42: Indecisiveness prohibited
The seeds of apprehension planted last week are beginning to sprout into saplings of nervousness. After such a devastating weekend, can you blame us? But spirits are relatively high considering Wigan’s current situation – maybe it’s gallows humour, or the knowledge that we could be just a few minutes from glorious, glorious Wigan time at […]

Progress With Unity Podcast No. 16: West Brom preview, Spurs review
Following last week’s acclaimed on location edition, the PWU Podcast returns to the plush surroundings of its Beech Hill studio for an altogether warmer episode – in more ways than one. But enough about the Bradford game, because that’s ancient history now. Joining the team to discuss a very fruitful weekend are Paul Kendrick and […]

Tottenham 0-1 Wigan: From ‘Badford’ to ‘Bradgate’
During my usual Saturday morning trawl through the tabloids (well, tabloid – have you seen the price of them these days?), I was surprised to encounter a full page spread on the ‘odd couple’ Kone and Di Santo. Well, it was as near as you can get to a ‘full page’ article in the Daily […]

Progress With Unity Podcast No. 15: Spurs preview, live from the DW Stadium!
By now, you know exactly what I think of Tuesday night‘s Halloween fancy dress party, so we shall move on. It has been two days, after all. Next up in the Premier League is the ghastly prospect of Tottenham Hotspur, and this week’s PWU Podcast preview comes live from a mizzly Dee Dubya. Witch team […]

Tottenham 3-1 Wigan: Frail Latics quail in face of Bale
A late, late resurgence from a generally tepid Latics wasn’t enough to make up for a weak first half as Tottenham chalked up another relatively comfortable three points at White Hart Lane. The hosts dominated much of the game, and by the time of Wigan’s pseudo-comeback in the final fifteen minutes, the match was effectively […]

Wigan 1-2 Tottenham: Spurs resist spirited Latics fightback
Hot on the heels of a miserable seven-day period which saw three defeats for Wigan, this week has been a bit more positive. News that Hugo Rodallega will not be out for as long as first feared is a massive boost as, while the Colombian won’t be available for at least a month, we should […]

Wigan 0-0 Tottenham: Still no back-to-back wins for Bob
This game, according to John Toner of 101greatgoals, represented a “unique opportunity” for the Latics. Spurs, no doubt with half an eye on Tuesday’s Champions League bout with European heavyweights Real Madrid, travelled to Wigan with just two fit central defenders and a damage limitation mentality to ensure no more injury worries ahead of their […]

Tottenham 0-1 Wigan: Inconsistency, thy name is Wigan Athletic
Just when we really needed it, how’s about that for a Latics ‘dream week’? I don’t recall back-to-back wins under Martinez since the last time Halley’s Comet was visible from Earth to the naked eye. Actually, it was January, but it seems like far, far longer – after all, we’ve conceded a whole raft of […]

Wigan v Tottenham (21st February 2010) photos
You know, despite the inclement weather, poor pitch, the fact everyone decided to watch the game on television and of course the 3-0 loss, Sunday wasn’t such a bad day. There wasn’t quite the fervour of Wednesday, but by the same token the weight of expectation wasn’t quite as heavy, at least in my eyes. […]
