Erm, What was that again?

I believe that was 4-0.

Wigan has wins against the likes of Aston Villa and Chelsea.

Portsmouth finished the week 8-0

8-0

one more time for effect,

8-0

Stoke City: 4-0

Wigan: 4-0

Agg: 8-0

Can you believe this week? A month ago I would have given an arm for a win, much less a win against two Premier League sides. In the same week.

8-0!

I'm afraid to summarise the game, simply because I don't know that I can accurately describe it. A hat-trick? From Dindane? Brilliant it was brilliant. There isn't a word that says it better than that. Brilliant. Hold on; let me get out the Thesaurus. You could say it was celebrated, distinguished, eminent, excellent, exceptional, glorious, illustrious, magnificent, prominent, splendid or superb. Take your pick. Because it was all of those.

Now, on to the less than joyous issues. We've been Chelsea'd. Well, not really. But, we have been handed a transfer ban. Storrie says it's just a technicality. So, I'm choosing to believe him. The general consensus is that we have outstanding payments due from the purchase of Diarra and Glen Johnson. So, hopefully that will soon be sorted out.

Finally, Steve Finnan, the full-back I said would prove to be a very worthwhile signing has gone and got himself injured. Thanks for that one Steve. He shouldn't be out for too long though. We've got Blackburn next, on Saturday at Ewood Park.
