EastStandWellFan Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 Does anyone know what's happening with this ? Has it definitely been cancelled ? Stuart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperSteelman Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 It's a mystery. If it was cancelled i would like to think Motherwell would have confirmed it. But Wigan don't have it on their website so who knows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brazilian Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 It is still shown on the official sites fixture list here scheduled for 8th August @ 15:00 Not sure if there is any doubt about it or not, If we beat Flamurtari, then the third qualifying round is scheduled for 30/07 & 06/08 so we might not want a Saturday game if we are away on the Thursday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ONeils40yarder Posted July 14, 2009 Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 I'd be surprised if there are no other 'bounce' games lined up though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigmcd Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 the wigan game is cancelled as on wigans website they are playing UD ALMERIA at the jjb on august 8th so think there is no chance of them coming up here plus we will have a europa league match on the 6th august which of course is more important Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rammer Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 im only saying as people were asking whether the game was on or not Not having a go just wondering how many people are that bothered about playing Wigan in a pre season friendly. Sorry if it came across that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rickoza Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 Seems Wigan are coming to Scotland after all....though they are having to slum it out in Paisley............... Roberto Martinez's Wigan will face St Mirren. ST MIRREN READY FOR WIGAN TEST Wigan have hastily arranged a friendly against St Mirren after Spanish side Almeria pulled out of their scheduled match on August 8 because of fears over swine flu. Almeria have also cancelled a friendly against Swansea for similar reasons. Roberto Martinez's Wigan have filled the gap by asking the Scottish Premier League side to visit the DW Stadium for a 3pm kick-off instead.

Geedub Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 That report says St Mirren are visiting them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickoza Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 Oooops...anyhow, Paisley...Wigan...from what I recall neither are des-res! Can't imagine Saint Mirren will draw a crowd of any sort. In saying that, they are charging just a fiver to get in. I think what confused me was calling it the DW stadium, hadn't realised that Wigan have completely revamped the interior of their ground and renamed it after a new sponsorship deal....
