I know this sounds daft but I really can't see holt having a future with wigan! Doesn't sound that daft to me, I think he's really enjoying it at Town. That's why I'm in the wait and see camp.

My apologies, 3Pipe. The fact that the thread title was about Rosler led me to think that Mackay hadn't been mentioned yet. Admins - Feel free to merge this then. Not your fault mate. When VP bumped the Rosler thread he should have added Mackay to the title. These admins take some bloody training in. Wouldn't mind but he's not even Venezuelan either.

I'm sure I read somewhere that they don't have a recall clause on him.

He's real, I've met him and possibly even hugged him.

What a beautiful merge, all credit to the Venezuelan legend.
If I get nowt else for Christmas now I couldn't care less knowing somewhere on the interweb there's a well merged thread sitting there quite happily.
Got a warm feeling in my stomach now. Oh, wait a minute, that's indigestion.

Dave Whelan - ultimate hypocrite. Who'd have thought: Born in Bradford, raised in Wigan of Irish ancestry?

he is employing a football manager not a race relations advisor.. if we sack and refuse to employ anyone who had ever said/texted/tweeted or written anything that anyone else found to be racially or sexually insulting we would have millions of vacancies and the biggest percentage of unemployed would not necessarily be white middle aged males..

This is just the sort of thread on a fans website where the club could do themselves immense credit by coming on here and clarifying the Holt situation for us fans. Can't see what confidences they would be breaking or how it could damage the club or player. It would certainly enhance communication between fans and the club.Just a thought!

Getting promoted out of this division with a huge budget isn't always straightforward, but it doesn't make you Shankley's second coming as Adkins and Keane have shown subsequently. I never really got the hype about McKay and think Tan's ridiculous despotic PR overshadowed a bit of an average performance from him.
That squad should be doing better though.

Press conference tomorrow, Grant Holt is sponsored by the North Stand Loyal, I'll be there representing the North Stand Loyal, so I guess there's one question I need to ask.

The loan extension until Dec 28 does NOT have a recall facility for Wigan so he is here until that date. After that, I expect Wigan to be looking for a permanent suitor for him in January, if Mackay doesn't fancy him. If no suitor can be found then I will imagine he will be available for a loan deal from Feb onwards. Examiner saucy link

I know an old obnoxious bullhead like Whelan won't give a shit and will even encourage bad publicity. But even purely as a business decision why would you hire a manager who is likely to have problems motivating, commanding respect from or even signing non-white players? Even if the shortlist was Hockaday, Souness, Anelka's brother and Pinky & fucking Perky he still would be safely discounted by any sane chairman. Anyways bollocks to the classless wankers, Wigan are just jumped up re-election recipients and can go back from whence they came after this clown has pissed the remains of their parachute money away.

DW was on 5 Live a few weeks ago and referred to black players as "coloureds". He's pretty old fashioned!

Clause inserted into Mackays appointment says the contract may be cancelled depending upon FA investigation conclusion. He may not even be there at Xmas.
Odd appointment and looking a bit desperate really

Im still of the opinion that sending messages of this nature via any system shows a lack of intelligence and add that to the type/content of said messages, it does not say a great deal about his possible mindset to manage football teams that have all sorts of nationalities playing for you. I guess the Wigan briefs will have access to all the information on the charges etc and have come down to the opinion that he will not be found guilty?

Wigan MP protested against the appointment. Whelan dismissed it as she was a lass and just didn't understand football.
Not sure I do either.

I bet Ron Atkinsons ears pricked up when he heard Mackay was back in football.
