My best memories as a Wigan fan;

  • The 1-0 Win at Wembly when Wigan won the Auto-Windscreen Shield in 1999.
  • The 5-0 demolition of Crystal Palace at the JJB in the same season they got promoted to the Premiership (if my memory serves correct)
  • That' Jason Roberts goal, in stoppage time, to send Wigan to the Carling Cup Final against Arsenal.
  • However, my best memory as a life-long Wigan fan was watching Wigan's first ever game in the Premiership against Chelsea, aside from the result, sitting in the East Stand, watching in excess of £250 million almost played of the pitch for 89 minutes was unbelieveable.

After watching Latics come so far, from the depths of the Conferance, and the old Division 3 into top class Premiership football is a tribute to all involved, and a marvelous achievement, that will never be forgotten in my heart.
