My prediction of Coyle's Wigan being above Bolton at the end of the season came partially true then. Three points ahead with a game in hand, despite a much tougher schedule ;)

It's probably the right decision for them though, so good on Whelan for acting quickly. Coyle wasn't going to get them promoted but with the team they have, they should be in or around the play-off spots at least, so what is the point in waiting? Get rid, move on and try to achieve something this season with a better manager. It looks like that'll be Holloway and he'll probably do a good job with them.

I'm going to miss a1's pictures!

And SF, you'll do well to explain how your prediction has come true! Coyle's Wigan are going to be on 22 points at the end of the season. Even you must reckon DF will do better than that :D?

It has not taken Nixon long to turn on Wigan like he did with us. Expect a load of nasty tweets about the Pie Eaters club and lovely owner.

What a crying shame. I just hope they don't get a good manager in because they have a half decent squad.

If anyone employs Holloway as a football club manager, they should book themselves in with a shrink.

Good for us if some Championship club does mind, it could only help our cause.

Another club where Nixon's lost the inside scoop. What a tool.

Enoch that would be bonkers, but if anyone's daft enough it's Whelan. Holloway needs to get on the radio with him, throw him a couple of compliments, sorted.

Also agree about the squad. If they go out of Europe and get a decent manager in they could fly up the league.

Possibly you are right, looking good on paper counts for little in this division unless you've got the right man. They've got the squad potential to do well though.

As for Holloway, I wouldn't just LOL, I'd definitely ROFL and perhaps even PMSL.

Please stop discounting managers just cos they're sh1te!! The last alternative will be DF and we'll have to get OC back. 8)

Dave Whelan live on SKY.. "I didn't actually sack Owen. We had a meeting and I told him I was disappointed with the performance and the team selection. He asked if I wanted him to resign and I said yes"

How the feck is that not sacking him?

"We have to pay his compensation etc."

You must have sacked him then! Tosser!!

Hate the dick. Only last week he was praising Coyle saying he hoped to have him at the club for a long time.

Apparently might be in line for the Scunthorpe job. Then we'll all know who put the "cu*t" in Scunthorpe.

There's already 72,514 c**ts in Scunthorpe. One more won't be noticeable. And to keep this on topic there's 317,800 c**ts in Wigan too. Well, minus one since OC left. 8)
