The Latics are back on the Wembley trail with a trip to Bolton in the 3rd round of the FA cup, a competition that we haven’t been beaten in since January 2012, we don’t count going out on penalties in the semi final last season as being beat, it was just a technicality that stopped us progressing through to the final for the second season in a row.
Anyway with the exciting buzz of the draw still ringing out the ticket prices for our date at the Macron have been announced, not too bad it must be said, 15 quid for an adult and a fiver for under 23’s and over 65’s
The game is scheduled to go ahead on Saturday 3rd January, the first action of the New Year, with a 3pm kick off, if a replay is required to see off our neighbours as we make our way to another Wembley visit, then this will take place teh week commencing January 12th 2015 at the DW Stadium.
