    Didn't realise this Zakky, thanks - will check there in future. When I went into the article it put a paywall up after a few seconds so I just copied and pasted it onto a word doc to read it.

    "Bolton get battered" matchday thread

    Eye, it was Chambers - cracking pass it was. He's looking like a good loan signing!

    "Bolton get battered" matchday thread

    Not sure what was going on with the handbags between the teams after the final whistle, but when it calmed down - SM and Humphreys had proper good celebratory moment, just seeing that - it was obvious how much that win meant to them!

    Latics have played more games at this level than anyone else : 1,000th League One fixture for Latics

    We'd need the data part of what Brentford do too, I would imagine. Although, didn't we have that football manager chap on the Board when Talal and his mates were around?

    SPAR Town v SPA Town

    Half time music shite but still better than that pedestrian first half. Not sure what Godo is offering at all.

    Latics have played more games at this level than anyone else : 1,000th League One fixture for Latics

    Agreed Runcorn, there are some lower league clubs who've had their glory days in the top division(s). Ownership, funding and ambition will obviously pay a big part in where we are. Maybe unless we have another Dave Whelan type benefactor, we need to consider a Brentford style model of buying...

    Latics have played more games at this level than anyone else : 1,000th League One fixture for Latics

    https://wiganathletic.com/news/2024/february/23/1000-football-league-games-and-counting-for-latics/ Having only having starting watching latics as a child in 1990, I wasn't aware that Latics have played more games at this level than anyone else. Is this our level, or are we right to expect more?

    JANUARY WINDOW THREAD

    Wkye gone to Rotherham- they covering all his wages and the loan period also covers rest of his contract. A decent saving there!

    JANUARY WINDOW THREAD

    from 2019 : 17-year-old @SUFCRootsHall star Charlie Kelman did this at the weekend... https://x.com/EFL/status/1084764553819377664?s=20 Not quite 60 yards - but not far off Hindley. Maybe he's still got it in his locker to do this?

    Wigan Athletic's top 10 best ever managers in order of win percentage (Ranked)

    I agree that these aren't necessarily the best, but a reminder of the some of the win ratios was an eye opener - especially as I only started going to games 1990 onwards (no experience of the non - league days etc.) Also a reminder of how much of a mess we made in the Uwe Rosler period.
