The Wigan Myth

[blackandwhite56]

I have read several times on here about Wigan being the form team and wanting to avoid them.

We may want to avoid them, but they are not the form team.

Right now WE are the form team! We are the #1 team in the Championship over the last 6 games.

Derby 15pts
Blackburn 12pts
Brighton 10pts
Ipswich 8pts
Forest 8pts
Reading 8pts
Wigan 8pts
QPR 7pts

Just look at those six fixtures they have had...

Lost 2 0 at Burnley same as us.
Lost 0 1 home to Millwall same as us
Drew 1 1 with Bolton same as us
Beat reading 3 0 better than us
Drew 2 2 with fester better than us
Beat weeds 1 0 not as much as us.

Oh and had the distraction of an FA cup semi at wembley and a terrific 1 1 draw with Arsenal.

So same fixtures as us three points more with extra time and a massive match too. Pretty creditable considering.

Then compare to who we've played in the same six.

Over six games doesn't show tr

We are the top of the form table over the past

3 games
4 games
5 games
6 games
7 games
8 games
9 games
10 games

And in that time Wigan haven't been inside the top ten - view external link

[Toggles]

Why were our games easier (debatable), look at Sunderland against top teams, or less pressure(ridiculous), why are we under less pressure than anyone else in the mix?

Why does everyone try to analyse the backside out of everything.

WTF

It's an analysys type of thread...

Less pressure on us recently as we've been pretty much assured of a play-off spot for the last few games.

...and there's no pier.

...and there's no pier.

At least they are as bad at penalties as we are!
