Any chance Wigan will play a reserve team in the FA Cup final?

 

They'll get fined by the FA if they do.

 

Enough to outweigh the incredible TV money for staying up?

points deduction?

 

No chance, I doubt there's even a law to allow that to happen.

It's a sad state for football in general if a team puts a reserve team out for a FA cup final.

 

It's never happening. This is the only chance of winning something meaningful for Wigan, their players and possibly Martinez. I wouldn't be surprised if the lot would take winning that cup over staying in the league.

:lol: This, it would be absolutely ludicrous.

 

I suppose I don't know how I would feel as a Wigan fan (or maybe that should be "as THE Wigan fan hahahahaha").

 

Let me say if we put out a reserve team out for a cup final, I'd like to think the manager wouldn't get out of the stadium due to our fans going off it.

Na they couldn't penalise them in a different competition surely

Nah, I'm not having it like. :lol: If they're still in the mix to stay up then I think there's a very good chance they'd play a weakened side in the final.

 

Not a chance in hell will they.

I think Wigan will pick up 7 points.

 

i think you're nuts.

 

No offence, but I really do. They'll get nothing like that.

 

Having that sort of GD swing against you is awful, but keep it in perspective, Wigan are way behind, and have to get the points.

 

Perspective isn't something we specialise in. Your victory tonight signals the end. Wigan are irrelevant.

 

What's the difference between people saying we're definitely going down and you saying Wigan are definitely going down? Neither are nailed on, only one team is in better form than the other.

Well I disagree, it seems we've reached a brick wall, neesy. :lol:

One team has more points though TBF.

Of course, and I'd agree that we are still favourites to stay up. I just think it's ludicrous to mock people for being defeatist when we're in this position.

Ah sure, I'm absolutely terrified myself. I do think predicting remarkable improvements from everyone is a bit much, but I can understand it they way the pendulum is swinging.

The difference is that only one eventuality will come to fruition. That will be Wigan's relegation.

I've just done the predictor on the BBC Website. Got it coming down to a final day shoot out between us and Wigan.

 

Norwich      P 37 Pts 41

Sunderland  P 37 Pts 40

Stoke          P 37 Pts 40

Villa              P 37 Pts 40

NUFC            P 37 Pts 37

---------------------------------

Wigan          P 37 Pts 36

 

I've also got Arsenal in 4th, 1 point behind Chelsea, 2 pts ahead of Spurs.

 

Anyone fancy us to get something off Arsenal when they need to tie up a CL place, while Wigan have Villa who are already safe. I don't like the look of that at all.

 

We MUST get a win at either QPR or WHAM. We simply have to.

According to your table we don't need to pick up another point and I'd take your hand off for that now.

JUst looking at the fixtures, I can see Wigan picking up 3 points off Swansea at home.

The problem with the BBC predictor is that wherever you expect teams to not pick up points they usually have this season. Must have done it 3 or 4 times in recent weeks with Villa only getting to about 35 points.
