Match31 Oct 2026

Wigan Athletic come up short against Bolton Wanderers

Bolton Wanderers left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Match27 Oct 2026

Wigan Athletic come up short against Cardiff City

Cardiff City left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

The dugout2 Nov 2026

The manager’s verdict

“That is on me. I pick the team and I picked wrong.” Managers say that when they mean it and when they need to be seen to, and after 0‑1 Timothy Dixon left the room before anybody could ask which.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Words exchanged at Wigan Athletic

Cole Simms 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.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Words at Wigan Athletic training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Camilo Charris is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

The dugout2 Nov 2026

Jack Hunt gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Young player of the week: Reggie Walsh

At 18 he was the best of everybody his age in the division for one weekend. Nobody should build a career on it and everybody quietly does.

The dugout2 Nov 2026

The manager has not finished forgetting Callum McManaman's mistake

Publicly it is behind everybody. It is not behind the man who picks the team, and the only place that shows is a team sheet. He will get another chance; he will get it in a match that matters less.

Player ratings2 Nov 2026

Fraser Murray beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 12. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Player ratings19 Oct 2026

A defender's goal wins it for Wigan Athletic — 7.55

1 for Reggie Walsh, marked 7.55, and a centre-half's name in the part of the report he normally only reaches by mistake. He will not be allowed to forget it in the dressing room for a month.

Squad19 Oct 2026

Isaac Mabaya is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 22 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Player ratings19 Oct 2026

Jonny Smith was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 19. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

Match17 Oct 2026

Wigan Athletic share the spoils with Leyton Orient

A 1‑1 draw with Leyton Orient leaves the dressing room somewhere between relief and regret.

The dugout19 Oct 2026

Half-satisfied: Timothy Dixon on the draw

“There are things I liked and things we will be doing on Tuesday until they are right.” 1‑1, and a manager who had already decided what Tuesday looked like.

Squad19 Oct 2026

Words at Wigan Athletic training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Camilo Charris is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Looking ahead19 Oct 2026

Ryan Trevitt goes back to face Exeter City

Every squad has one of these fixtures for somebody every season. This one is Ryan Trevitt’s: the club that knew him first, the supporters who will decide in the first minute whether to applaud, and Wigan Athletic needing him to play as if none of it matters.

The dugout19 Oct 2026

No place in the plan for Matheus Machado

The manager wanted a different profile for this opponent, which is a real football reason and no consolation. He did nothing wrong and he did not play.

Market19 Oct 2026

Wigan Athletic pick up Camilo Charris for nothing

The best deals are the ones the accountants never notice. Camilo Charris arrives at Wigan Athletic with his wages the only cost and something to prove the only clause.

Transfer targets3 Aug 2026

Vicenza tell Wigan Athletic: Filippo Alessio is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Finley Burns stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Finley Burns and Wigan Athletic agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad3 Aug 2026

James Carragher in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Wigan Athletic this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Transfer targets3 Aug 2026

Wigan Athletic ask about Calvin Ramsay

A loan enquiry to Liverpool: cover, or a look at somebody the club cannot afford to buy yet. Either way the answer will come back inside the week.

Transfer targets3 Aug 2026

Wigan Athletic try to borrow Jofre Torrents

Ajax have been asked whether they would lend him. Loans are agreed quickly or not at all, and this one will be one or the other by the weekend.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Joseph Hungbo falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Market3 Aug 2026

The clock runs on Finley Burns's contract

36 months left and silence from upstairs — no offer, no talks, nothing for his people to answer. Clubs that let a calendar do their negotiating usually end up negotiating with the calendar.

Market3 Aug 2026

Wigan Athletic and Jack Hunt are talking past each other

“There is a gap, and pretending there is not helps nobody.” Neither side has moved, and the calendar is working for exactly one of them.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Wigan Athletic give Morgan Fox the armband

A decision that decides nothing on the pitch and everything in the room. The manager has said, without saying it, whose voice he wants heard when his own is not there.

In brief
