Jewell urges boycott

Jewell said: "If I was sat on a panel before the season, I'd have looked at Wigan, Sunderland, perhaps West Ham and West Brom, and said three of those four would be relegated.

"But some people dismissed us out of hand and showed a lack of respect – I didn't like that. This team, whatever you think of them, deserve respect for what they have done.

"I would urge people in Wigan that if a certain someone is going to go in the stocks, don't bother to turn up because without publicity, he is a no-mark."

Anyone who goes to this event now should be shot.
