Always look on the bright side of life,

8-0 to Chelsea FC what do you expect? Well the fact that they are cheating twits is one, Drogba doing his " holding head crying then when he gets a decision i will go and run" trick.
Two penalties and a sending off - All to Chelsea, I actually stopped caring and lost count of how many goals went it, Had a good sing song and I loved how the Chelsea muppets could not understand why we where still singing even though we where losing, We follow our team because we are proud to do so we may be not successful but we did not buy the title.

Had a good day in t'smoke as well, Cenataph,Pubs,Houses of Parliment and we couldnt find a pub to drink in Chelsea itself because well we are a "risk" because my 71 year old grandad has a Wigan Athletic jacket on.Bollocks.

Here are some pictures from the day:

Cenotaph at Whitehall






























The pub we where in on Whitehall - Decent pint of Greene Kings Royal London.

So thats it then....

Last home game of the season over, 2-2 draw with Hull City which has sent them down to the championship and with talks of the club in crippling debt, Its not looking good for the Tigers.

Wigan started off well with a goal from Victor Moses in the 30th minute and then just before half time Hull equalised ( I missed it since I was waiting for food, then to find out that they has sold out of all hot-food!)
So I presume the Hull fans in the away end where optimistic on there chances of staying up in the Premier League, But with Steve Gohouri's last grasp equaliser in the 90th minute meant that Hull would be going down, At some point I was in tears laughing because they did that cringe-worthy chant - "Getting Mauled by the tigers" .


Within the last few minutes to go, The stewards stopped the Hull fans by going on the pitch by forming a line - But forgot about the home support, Quite a few ran on with people booing them from the stands ( Cant see why, Bit of end of season fun!) they came off the pitch and there is talk of getting people banned and somebody I know has been taken off the Latics database for 3 years because off it.Pathetic.

Bank Holiday Monday.....

Wigan Athletic vs Hull City
DW stadium,Wigan

With Hull relegated and Wigan staying up, Will this be a nothing game where both teams can not be arsed or will it be a party for Latics/Gutted for Hull, We have Chelsea away for the last game of the season so this could be a chance to pick up some points before the season ends and just to make sure that we stay up!

Should be a good day and shall have a decent slurp around town.

Sunderland vs Wigan Athletic

Latics go up to the Stadium of Light to face the mackems and also there former manager Steve Bruce who has apparantly been shopping at harrods while up there [ sic ]

We managed to scrap a 1-0 win against them when they played at the DW stadium early on in the season.
Melchiot is still out and kirkland is out with a collarbone injury still while there has been talks of it being MARTINEZ VS BRUCE etc...Martinez has tried to play it down by stating that its all about the players and points.

HEAD TO HEAD

SUNDERLAND: EPL: 1 DRAWS 1

LATICS: 5

LEAGUE: Sunderland: 3 Draws: 5 LATICS: 5

FA CUP: Sunderland: 0 Draws: 0 Latics: 1


so on that from i should be saying we should be heading towards a comfterble win but with latics and our current form i would say a 3-0 hammering is in store for us.

there is also a memorble incodent where a group of sunderland fans where "mud sliding" down the shevington end back at Springfield park..Will post a video up of when I get home i found it quite funny.
