Roberto Martinez On Wigan Winning the FA Cup and Being Relegated In the Same Season in 2013 🤯😯 #shorts #football #soccer #premierleague #facup #wigan #story #mancity

As a Leeds fan, who’s never seen us win a trophy or compete to a good level (other then finishing 9th under Bielsa in COVID), I’d have taken the FA Cup instead of staying in the Prem, 100%.
Your the worst coach ever ! You fucked belgium over. You choose your favorites while there were players who could play for belgium but nooo you got the worst
The Martinez effect: even if the team is so good they'll win the cup when it comes to sheer talent, the season long strategy is so bad that you'll get fucked like never before
Can't wait for him to fuck us over permanently starting with this euro
What wasn't mentioned here, was. The FA Cup final was held before the last day of the season. Who knows if the FA Cup was held after the last day, as per tradition. The players might have been fresher for their remaining fixtures.
But there again, the physiological boost may have helped a little. But it just didn't show in the results.
The reason for the FA Cup being held then was, there was a stipulation that to host the Champions League final, they didn't allow games to be played on it for 1 or 2 weeks before the final. Which is a rule that must have been changed. Because this happened THIS year with the FA Cup and CL finals.
As a West Ham-supporter I still flinch when I think back to the 2006 FA Cup final against Liverpool. Even after Gerrard’s equalizer we had a great opportunity to score, but one of our attackers, can’t remember if it was Zamora or Harewood, was limping around at the time so he managed to miss the goal by about ten yards. When standing about 5 yards from the goal.

Did they get European football?
Rather win the cup and get relegated than stay up
Rio : a few *lines, sort that out
I'm really impressed with his pronunciation.
Looking forward to him winning the euros ❤
This is why the FA Cup is a magical and special tournament.
Considering Wigan never went back up, it's bittersweet.
Roger Espinoza 🐐
Nobody remembers who wins relegation battles, but everyone remembers trophy winners.
Gutting for Middlesbrough getting relegated in 97 and losing both the League Cup and FA Cup finals
What a shit manager
always thought it happened to pompey wigan did well to stay up nearly 8 years

Wigan will be back. Look at the recent club statement
Just goes to show that any team can win a final, even a cr4p team!
Wigan will be relegated and promoted many times over, but how many more times will they win silverware?
Hope he can pull a miracle for Portugal in the next wc
Then there's Tottenham😂

And we never see the club after that. Every good players on the club were bought.
