Plymouth Reaction
Portsmouth Preview
The last home game of the season, hoping for a grand finale to a glorious campaign, but we are Wigan Athletic and we just love to do things a little differently, none of the easy stuff here.
A draw against Plymouth was perhaps always on the cards, carrying rubber stamping of promotion over to Tuesday evening down on the South Coast at Portsmouth, we do have a few connections with them after all.
We did have opportunities to get it sealed, but a great save, a wayward finish, a bobble of the ball and a referee not prepared to make a decision all contrived to leave us waiting another four days at least.
So off down south on Tuesday, Jack Whatmough, Tom Naylor and manager Leam Richardson all returning to their old stomping ground, what a place to not only gain promotion, a draw would be enough, but also potentially win the title if we Sunderland do us a favour, yeah I know, against Rotherham, for one night only I'll be hoping for a Sunderland win.
Up the tics!
