Quick "thanks" from a Wigan Athletic supporter

Was at the game last night, just wanted to say thanks and respect to the Arsenal fans who roundly applauded our team off last night. I didn't hear a single jeer or insult. I was in the Club level and people around us were friendly and sympathetic too.

You're a credit to your club.

 

Sorry to see you get relegated really. Hope you can keep Martinez, I'm sure you'll come back up if you can keep a hold of him.

 

As an Arsenal fan I was desperate for us to win last night. However its a real shame that Wigan have gone down I have been rooting for you guys for weeks to stay up. I like Martinez and appreciate that Wigan have always played good football for years, don't really know how your team keep managing to get in to trouble. Good luck for next season hope you bounce back.

 

Echoing a lot of sentiments here by saying glad we won last night but sorry it had to be you........Stoke next season hopefully will be the team you replace...

 

You know how it is, you only applied the final stroke - in recent weeks even, failing to hang on to a lead against Spurs in the 90th minute, blowing up against Swansea, failing to put City to the sword when they were there to be beat - these are even the games in the last four weeks which have cost us.

But we have an FA Cup. Unbelievable. Wigan Athletic won the FA Cup. The warm glow from that will last me a loong time.

Fingers crossed you get the last CL place, and get back to winning trophies next season.

 

Don't talk about winning stuff, Arsenal fans will turn on you through jealousy

 

Thanks for pissing the Spuds off too

 

It makes me laugh when Spurs fans go on about trophys like they have won some recently !

 

Wigan are such a likable club with the way they potray themselves both on and off the feild and it was really sad to have relegated them yersterday..Hope they bounce back

 

It is a shame that Wigan have gone down, they offer far more to the PL than Stoke, Norwich, Sunderland, etc. I would like to think Martinez will stick around and get you back up in the PL but I think sadly he will go to Everton and you may struggle. Good luck next season nonetheless.

 

I have no jealousy towards Wigan for winning the FA Cup, I'm very happy for them and think it's great for football and the competition that they won it. If anyone should be jealous, it should be Spurs, as Wigan have now managed to win more major trophies than Spurs in the last what? 15 years? When's the last time you won one of the actual big 2 trophies?

 

That's what I'm here for.

Whereas 7 years is nothing? We have at least won the mickey mouse one in that time

 

...and your mickey mouse cup gave you lots of satisfaction because it was a mighty achievement for a club such as yours.

Anyway, more valuable to you would be a spell in the CL which might help you attract better players than Arsenal rejects and subsidised Citeh hand-me-downs

FIOS

 

No offence pal, but you have one league title in over a century, hardly the sign of a bit club is it, most of your supporters have never seen you life a league title, so pipe down and stop embarrassing yourself.

 

You're half right. It's 2. 1951 + 1961 if i'm not mistaken.

 

it was in the days of black and white and division one wasnt it ?.

My grandad told us about it.

Now tell us more about the seven years .

 

When's the last time Spurs won the FA Cup?

 

1991

Their last major (if you can call the FA cup major these days ?) trophy was 22 years ago

 

surely that cant be right , they wouldnt laugh at 7 years if they hadnt won any major trophy for 22.

 

They have lived on that one CC win for a long time
