Wigan Athletic tackle Manchester City in the FA cup final and it would appear that the Latics, being the underdog, have quite a few neutrals plugging for us, below is a selection of some of the good luck messages sent into Vital Latics from a few of our mates from around the other Vital sites:
Good luck to you Latics. I always back the underdog and this weekend won’t be any different!
Hope you can do a David v Goliath which it would be judging by your injury crisis.
Enjoy the day folks, finals don’t come along very often, so make the most out of it!!
The Fear – Villa
Everyone loves an under-dog and we proved last season, against Barcelona and Munich that the under-dog can come through. Hang on tight, grit those teeth and hope ‘Lady Luck’ is smiling on you. I’m certainly cheering you on!
merlin – Chelsea
All the best for the FA Cup final this weekend. I genuinely hope you pull it off. I’ve got a soft spot for Martinez and would like to see him happy before we have to attempt to relegate you next week. Sorry about that by the way, it’s nothing personal and if we could have it any other way, we would. We just can’t let Spurs finish above us.
So good luck, and make sure you give it your all (so you’re nice and knackered for the mid-week game).
Rocky7 – Arsenal
Best of luck tomorrow lads, I think it’s fair to say the neutrals are all vouching for you. First and foremost, make a day of it! It’s not every day that an FA Cup final comes around for a club in the lower depths of the league, so no matter what the result is, take great heart from the atmosphere and the occasion. You have proven in that past two seasons that you are capable of beating the likes of Manchester United and Arsenal, so why can’t you beat Manchester City? Make it one to remember, good luck Wigan!
Josh – Reading
Good luck. I’m imagining it’ll be a really good game with Wigan hitting form as they always seem to do at this time of year.
Vital Southampton
Best of luck, I will be rooting for you
