Not necessarily such a bad draw. Wigan have a big backlog of fixtures. I think that only one of the players who played for Wigan in the league today played for them in the last round of the EFL Trophy.

Micky J has just pointed out to me that when Wigan won this (as the Auto Windscreen) their goal at Wembley was scored by none other than Paul Rogers !

Really happy with this draw, will hopefully be a cracking away trip. This team won't have been scared by any of the team's left and feel we will have the advantage given Wigan will want to win L1, whereas we are just along for the ride with this been one of Matt's key goals

Could do with them turning over Stoke in the FACup on Saturday to add to the fixture list.

Going to be a busy March for us. I can't say i'm happy with the draw. Probably the worst we could have got but hey ho we are in the semis!

This is for a Wembley final and who ever we drew was always going to be fighting very hard to win. Its going to be a very hard game. But if we put the effort in that we usualy do and get the rub of the green then we always have a chance.

Not necessarily such a bad draw. Wigan have a big backlog of fixtures. Not half - as many as four games in hand on some of the teams below them. Wigan play seven fixtures alone in Feb including tough looking league fixtures against fellow promotion chasing teams Oxford, Sheff Wed, Rotherham, Wycombe and Sunderland. They've recruited well in January as promotion looks to be a priority back to the Championship. Looking forward to going there in the semi's! |

We travel to FA Cup winners from 9 years ago and play at a ex premier league ground in the semi final of a EFL competition where the winners play at Wembley.
Still pinching myself at the madness of this

Any indication as to when the date of the fixture will be announced? It's going to be w/c 7 March. I expect the actual date will depend on any TV coverage |

I said at HT at Brunton Park that we had been fortunate to have very favourable draws in the 3 previous PJT ties (all at home against teams in League 2). One could argue that we were "due a tricky one" and lo and behold....that said Wigan will have a tough schedule in Feb and they will likely need to utilise fringe players. And whilst I was certainly hoping we got a home draw...if it was to be away...10 miles up the M6 from my house will do me fine!!!
