The Europa League for Wigan is great news for the other promotion contenders but bad news for the new Wigan manager. Fixture congestion and travelling fatigue could cost them 4 or 5 points and might make all the difference.

If Poyet ends up at Wigan it will show this current episode has damaged himself even more than us. He looked primed for move to a top-10 Premier League club. If it ends up being a relegated club in the Championship, with half the crowd and every prospect of losing some players, compared to his options a month ago it's a personal disaster.
We'll see what transpires but if it is Wigan he has sabotaged himself as much as our promotion and play-off bid. It would be just what it looks like - a desperate escape route from a mess of his own making.

Indeed. It would be great if Wigan had a long Europa League campaign with a few trips to eastern Ukraine or similar

Not that I disagree with you, but will they still have players with regular prem league experience by the end of August (or at least as many of them)?

Good point he is also a very loyal person and I can see an ex Wigan player turning up as manager maybe Jewell or heaven forbid Aspinall !!

Oi, Warren sounds like he knows what he's on about when talking football, even if he does have problems with names. I'd love to see how he got on as a manager

How do you come to that conclusion, even if we had won promotion he would still not have attracted any of the top 10.

In Gus' own head he is a top 4 Prem manager, and some on here believe his self-delusion.

No but what else is there to interest us at the moment with nothing coming out of the club. not that they can say anything, and no good ITK because TB plays it close to his chest nobody knows anything. So without that site life would be boring. Incidentally their latest is Harry spent 3 hours at TB London office today with his agent and an announcement saying Harry is replacing Gus will be made tomorrow at 5.00pm

Rumours that The Wally with The Brolly is very much in the frame for Wigan.
Which will mean we've successfully swerved him

Mike Phelan is the favourite for the job. You've got to believe that a load of ex-Man Utd coaches - Phelan, Meulensteen, McLaren, Phil Neville - coming cheap and comp-free with a load of contacts in the North-West holds more allure than the likes of Gus.

Not sure if this has really sunk in yet, but football success is not based on crowds.
I have made it more accurate for you Tony

Not at all, sir. Just pointing out that whilst I've no doubt that Brighton's crowds will eclipse Wigan's next season, I see no reason for them to be sniffed at and considered such a lesser managerial opportunity than your club in terms of squad, budget, and promotion prospects.
