Looks like the fact that Manchester City stumbled at Arsenal, too, was a good omen for Wigan!
How could that be, you may ask?
Well, seeing themselves eight points up on a hopeless Man. City, Man. U. could now afford to give some well-deserved help to their faithful slaves, Wigan. (<-- wigan - manchester united 1-0 -- no, this is not a misprint -- sic!)
And the funny thing is wigan actually would have been leading from minute 30, if only somebody had told the linesman that United does not need any help on this matchday!
Yes, there was a good goal for Wigan in the first half, too, but it was disallowed.
Sure, United is now only 5 points up on City in the title race -- Oops, did I say "race? Ha, I meant "disgrace"! -- but nobody, not even Mancini, believes that City can still get it.
And, surely, it's over.
On the other hand, Wigan should stay up, to help Manchester United next year, too, no?
When you're eight points ahead, and so sure of the win, you can spare three for one of your sidekicks in desperate need, no?
P.S. I wonder if Fulham might leave some points for Wigan, too, two matchdays from now. 'Cause, otherwise, Wigan have to face Arsenal, Newcastle, Blackburn and Wolverhampton. And those teams need points (although by the time of their match, Wolves might be relegated already and in a mood to bargain, too)!
