Progress With Unity Podcast #126: Wolves review, Brentford preview

Hmm, what's that great, grey beast with tusks blocking the exit? Hey, does this mean we don't have to leave, and we can stay in the Championship? Wow, this post-FA Cup dream does have a happy ending after all!

Wait, you're saying that was a dream too? Talk about a nightmare within a nightmare... and I still have to shift that blasted elephant in my room. Ah well, where's that XXXXL Pooper Scooper...?

This week we are joined by Wigan Evening Post Latics correspondent Paul Kendrick as we look back at the reasons for our fall into League 1, can we put a finger on just one thing that has been the catalyst to our downfall?

Progress With Unity Podcast #125: Brighton review, Wolves preview

You know that phrase, 'you're only as good as your last game'? Well, the PWU Podcast likes to take that in the most literal sense, booking the morgue when we've lost as opposed to ordering funfair tickets when we've won. And this week is no exception - even when staring relegation in its ugly, pimple-infested face, a first home win in eight months can make you invincible.

You're in for the ride now, dude... there *is* no turning back.

Optimism is high following our first home victory in eight months, well why wouldn't it be.

Tim Chow is the main man following his goalscoring exploits against Brighton, wait a minute, Chow Main, now then!

Gary Caldwell proved to be a tactical genius with a subtle switch on the hour mark and we won the game, we just can't stop talking about the Brighton game!

We have a look at how the remaining games may pan out, it's going to be tough, but with a break or two, well we can do it.

We finish off with a preview of the Wolves game, hopefully Mr Dicko will remember that he can't score at the DW

Contents: Sunny intros (0:00); Brighton rocks including Statman (1:40), 50 Shades of Caldwell (3:00), Chow the Main Man (8:30) and Caldwell's Meet and Greet feat (9:30); keep believin': motivational video time (12:20); two left games and… still in it?! (13:10); Pete Reece’s open letter to the players of Wigan Athletic (21:10); next up: Nouha Dicko's Wolves (23:20) and Wigan Time predictions (30:30)

Progress With Unity Podcast #124: Fulham and Millwall reviews, Brighton preview

Who will win the relegation... well, you know? (c)Bill Nicholls

Well, Cald might have conquered the Kop, but the New Den proved a lot harder. With two red cards from two games, one might even dub him... Cardwell. What, you say the press beat me to it? Curses!

Mercifully, we're coming to the end of this season, and there's a certain amount of relief in the Book Cycle studios. Just think - in three short weeks you'll be toasting Dave Whelan at his celebratory dinner and you can forget all about Rosler, Coyle and their co-conspirators that 'got us into this fine mess'.

So cheer up, eh? One day they'll write a book about all this and you'll read it with a glow in your heart.

This week we have a look back at Fulham and Millwall, another case of points dropped, the story of our season.

A night of controversy at The Den with three sending offs, referee Steve Martin as comical as his Hollywood funny man namesake.

Would Marc-Antoine Fortune score another goal for us if he played for another three seasons? I doubt it.

Brighton at the DW on Saturday, give the kids a run Gary, let's see what we have in the squad for next season.

Progress With Unity Podcast #123: Derby review, Fulham preview

Oh, Superman, where are you now? (c)Helgi Halldórsson
At a time when only the intervention of internationally-renowned superheroes can save Wigan Athletic, step forward our very own Man of Steel - Captain Caldwell, Conqueror of the Kop. Is the latest in a long line of managerial candidates the right man to lead the club into a rebooted universe, or will he be the equivalent of the radioactive rats Batman can defeat with a single flick of his index finger?
*Superman theme plays*
Wait, stop that! We only have the rights to play a 5-second clip... those legal eagles will be posting half of Borsdane Wood to my solicitor. Again.

Progress With Unity Podcast #122: Middlesbrough and Derby previews

Well, you know what they say - 'out of the frying pa-' BONK! (Is smashed on head with frying pan.)

With this latest international break over, it's time to face fears and wind up the clock branded 'Wigan Time'. It is said the dial is so large, only the strongest of wrists can shift this mighty timepiece - Emile 'Mighty Forearms' Heskey once broke three nails attempting to adjust it for daylight saving time. 

In other words, we gotta beat Middlesbrough or Derby. See, you could have skipped that last, superfluous paragraph and got the general idea. I have to work on that tautology, it seems.

This week it is debate over the English problem, or is it a problem? How many England eligible players does one team need!

The new recruitment model at the Latics is under scrutiny, is it all just Premier League Manager 98 or is there more to it than that.

Six apprentices received promotion to the full time ranks this week, its a well done to them.
