And to say the game would be a foregone conclusion is bullshit.

Portsmouth nearly knocked off Chelsea when Boateng missed that penalty a few years ago.

Wigan were on a massive giant-killing run too late last season.

Capable of beating anyone on their day.

Martinez is a highly rated manager too, known for extracting the best out of limited resources.

Mind you, we could also quite easily lose to Blackburn/Millwall. Ack


agreed, wigan in the final or millwall or balckburn doesnt mean its a show in for chelski or the mancs

Yes when they beat Arsenal in the League Cup they also got relegated. Playing in Europe would not be a great result really when you are trying to get promotion again especially when the prize money simply isn't worth it.

You end up playing almost 6 games in 2 weeks due to the extra numbers in the championship. Hopefully Wigan survive but how many times can they keep doing it!?

0-0 at HT
Both keepers have made a good save with their feet but not much else to do.
Pretty low tempo so far
