No no no JB, its Wigan's fault, not the EFL or the dodgy owners who they let buy the club.
I wonder if 1964 thought the same when that cunt petty took over.
The Petty situation is quite different though isn't it? There was no administration. Also, our own situation in 1985 when we went into administration is alos different. The rules were different and there wqas no points deduction. Today, there is, and today, Wigan deserve what they got. We have a capitalist society,(which I am totally and absolutely not in favour of) and anyone can buy whatever they can afford. If idiots or rogues want to buy Wigan Athletic or any other football club, they can do just that. I don't like these sort of 'owners' any more than you do, but you have to face facts. I cannot understand how the majority can vote in a Conservative government and then complain about capitalism. It simply doesn't make sense. Also, quite laughable that your quoted article uses the word of a Labour MP, who along with her right wing leader is currently turning their party into an even more capitalist party than the Tories. As a country, we appear to have made our bed. Wigan Athletic fans have to lie in it I'm afraid. I hate it, you clearly hate it, but rules is rules.
