Whelan Lurrrrves Manchester ‘Heart and Soul of Football’ United

Wow, Wigan chairman, Dave Whelan, really has a soft spot for us and admits it will be a shame if they beat us tonight!

“I think United are the heart and soul of football,” said Whelan. “Bobby is an ambassador and does a fantastic job for football. When you talk about the maestro himself, he is just something different. He’s probably the greatest manager that football has ever seen. I wish I had been in a position to play under him. He is Man United through and through. It is just a pleasure to shake his hand and welcome him to Wigan. I always have a drink with Bobby afterwards. Sir Alex always has a drink with Steve Bruce and they get on so well together. It is just a shame if we lose or if we beat Man United.”

    FSW will surely prepare a dossier of comments on this one soon Maybe he would even say they gifted us the title

    Club owners have soft spot for Utd, it is a faaccht! The FA needs to look into it. They should ban utd loving owners from the league. Only sparring americans who will blindly believe fsw’s at large should be allowed to own clubs!

    Maybe my English is failing me but I didn’t quite understand this part – “It is just a shame if we lose or if we beat Man United.”

    Bud i think he means that he is torn about who he wants to win.Obviously he loves our club and wants to see us champions.At the same time,he wants his club to do well.

    Slightly off topic but Wigan related. Watched the game from last season when Giggsy sealed it and when they went on the podium to get the trophy Carrick, Rio and VDS were joining in with the crowd singing word for word “he’s won it ten times…… that boy Giggsy he’s won it ten times” Priceless. Feeling confident about tonight.

    You’ve got to love Wigan! Any chance of a discount for Valencia?

    Thank heavens they played well against us, or else the rolling over conspiracy theorists would have surfaced.
