Anger at Wigan Athletic spills outside the ground

It has stopped being a mood in the stands and started being something organised. Boards can ignore a bad atmosphere for a long time; they cannot ignore this stage of it for very long at all.

The knee: Armando Shashoua out for 34 days

34 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Wigan Athletic lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

Squad9 Jul 2029

131 days out for Matteo Spinelli after a fracture

A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Wigan Athletic will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Transfer targets9 Jul 2029

Wigan Athletic rebuffed over Shea Lacey

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Manchester United have kept their man, and Wigan Athletic go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Market9 Jul 2029

Tyrese Francois hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Wigan Athletic can pretend not to have heard.

An offer of $140.0K for Reiss Bowen

Wigan Athletic have gone to Wolverhampton with a bid, and the supporters have gone to the internet with an opinion about it. Whether either changes anything is up to the selling club.

Squad9 Jul 2029

Jorge Grant pulls a muscle — 15 days out

The injury that keeps coming back, keeps being rushed back from, and quietly costs more careers than the dramatic ones. 15 days is the estimate; the honest figure depends on whether anybody is patient.

Market9 Jul 2029

Josh March attracts admirers

The name of Josh March has come up in conversations Wigan Athletic were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.

Squad9 Jul 2029

Words exchanged at Wigan Athletic

Issam Chahlafi and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad11 Sep 2028

A knee injury of the worst kind for Matteo Spinelli

18 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Wigan Athletic lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Squad11 Sep 2028

Liam Edwards breaks a bone — 39 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 39 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Market11 Sep 2028

Terms done: Owen Evans is going

Fee agreed, wages agreed, and Wycombe Wanderers waiting with a shirt. Nobody at Wigan Athletic is pretending otherwise, and the supporters have stopped asking whether and started asking when.

Market11 Sep 2028

Dara Costelloe’s move to Queens Park Rangers falls through

The deal that would have taken Dara Costelloe to Queens Park Rangers has collapsed at the last stage, and he reports back to Wigan Athletic with a summer to forget and a season still to play. Nobody is saying which side walked away.

The dugout11 Sep 2028

Luke Hawe keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Wigan Athletic may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Market11 Sep 2028

Dan Gelhardt hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Wigan Athletic can pretend not to have heard.

Armando Shashoua has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Wigan Athletic they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Squad11 Sep 2028

Kosma Sekuła arrives at the club he grew up with

Every footballer has an answer to the question about his boyhood club, and most of them never get to act on it. Kosma Sekuła has, at Wigan Athletic, and the first month will show what that does to a man.

Wigan Athletic rebuffed over Oscar Fraulo

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Brighton have kept their man, and Wigan Athletic go back to a list with one name crossed off it.
