Send us Fan Mail Optimism is high following our first home victory in eight months, well why wouldn't it be. Tim Chow is the main man following his goalscoring exploits against Brighton, wait a minute, Chow Main, now then! Gary Caldwell proved to be a tactical genius with a subtle switch on the hour mark and we won the game, we just can't stop talking about the Brighton game! We have a l...

Send us Fan Mail This week we have a look back at Fulham and Millwall, another case of points dropped, the story of our season. A night of controversy at The Den with three sending offs, referee Steve Martin as comical as his Hollywood funny man namesake. Would Marc-Antoine Fortune score another goal for us if he played for another three seasons? I doubt it. Brighton at the DW on Saturday, give th...

Send us Fan Mail This week it is debate over the English problem, or is it a problem? How many England eligible players does one team need! The new recruitment model at the Latics is under scrutiny, is it all just Premier League Manager 98 or is there more to it than that. Six apprentices received promotion to the full time ranks this week, its a well done to them. Two big games coming up, a visit...

Send us Fan Mail Down but not out following the draw with Bolton at the weekend, there was a lot to admire from the performance, but it was the three points that we really needed. This episode we look back at the Bolton game, and discuss the consequences. Perch or Kvist? James McClean been missed? Do we need one final loan signing? Contents: Chilled out intros (0:00); Sh*t or Bust: Bolton review (...

Send us Fan Mail From the joys of winning away at Rotherham to the realisation that we cannot win at home, the lows of Watford, the pain of our form at the DW Stadium will surely see the end of us this campaign. We have to question why we are bringing in youngsters from Liverpool when we have our own youngsters treading water. Bolton are here at the weekend, another defeat at the DW? The panel don...

Send us Fan Mail This week's podcast comes 'live' from the Springfield public house, fittingly enough just yards away from where our beloved Wigan Athletic where based when Dave Whelan bought them lock, stock and barrel 20 years ago, not much has changed in that time, though I think they may have switched to energy saving light bulbs! This week the usual crowd are joined by Alan &ap...

Send us Fan Mail Difficult to be positive when we are heading out of the Championship the way we are, but believe it or not there is a bit of positivity to this week's edition, if you manage to find it though please let us know. A shocking display last Friday was compounded by injury to two players, another defeat on Tuesday and realistically there is no way back. The big question that is bei...

Send us Fan Mail This week we have a real happy bunch after a fantastic result for the Latics down at the Madejski Stadium, surprising how a one nil win at Reading can have such a positive effect on such a bunch of miserable so and so's! We discuss just how the win could affect the rest of the season, hopefully it will be the spur to a little run of results that will see us pull clear of the...

Send us Fan Mail This week's podcast has a performance report from the man at the scene, Adam who was at Portman Road on Saturday and was encouraged by the Latics performance. There is a look through the transfer window and a bit of debate over the incomings and outgoings, was it a positive window? One thing is for sure Gaetan Bong has already made an impression. We finish off with a look for...

Send us Fan Mail This week we take a look back at the Huddersfield game, we just can't win. We discuss the transfer comings and goings, at last a bit of optimism.

Send us Fan Mail Well what can we say apart from it's bad, ok then it's very bad. Another defeat, this time against a side that we destroyed just four months back, we could have been 5 down by half time, Birmingham a cut above. Shaun Maloney and Callum McManaman are reportedly on their way, the transfer window will see changes in the playing staff, hopefully the rumour of incomings will...

Send us Fan Mail It may be a new year but we appear to have the same old problems, the podcast crew let a little steam off as we take a look back at our cup exit at the hands of Bolton.
