Wrong and fired up about it...

Well.  Thankfully that last post turned out to be premature.  I stand by most of those thoughts - maybe it wasn't so much a "a near-miraculous convergence of events" as it was just a gutsy (and lucky) game and a half of soccer.  But getting that out helped me cope with a couple of intense games.  Still, I absolutely can't let that post sit as my last word on the end of this season.

End of the road for Wigan?

The season and Wigan Athletic's chances of avoiding "the drop" aren't mathematically settled.  But watching Tottenham-Liverpool, I caught the Anfield loudspeakers announcing an 0-2 halftime deficit to West Ham?!  It would take a near-miraculous convergence of events to keep them in the top flight.  And if they can't beat the bottom team in the league - at the DW Stadium - do they deserve to stay up?

Without putting myself through the unpleasantness of confirming, I still figured it was time for a eulogy for Wigan's Premiership run, and perhaps my Wigan fanship?
