11) What is your opinion of Wigan Athletic?
Footballing wise very impressed, Seem to have only one way of playing, will be interesting too see if they can maintain momentum next season, suspect that they will be found out to a certain extent, but no reason as to why they should not finish mid table. finances permitting.

Fan wise, gates are a bit of a disappointment, you can survive with tiny gates like Wimbledon, but TBH does nothing for the Prem, would be OK if you could average 20k, but looking at all those empty seats is a bit depressing. Hoping that you will bring 1500 to the Lane, but am only expecting 500 or so.

12) Which current, or former Wigan players have impressed you?
Wigan seem to be more about team ethics, like say Leicester was under Martin O'Neill, rather than individuals. Obvious choice would be Bullard though.
