Wigan Turn To 'The Hutch'


The man who took over Bradford after Paul Jewell left, Chris Hutchings will officially take the reins at Wigan on Tuesday with the complete financial backing of owner Dave Whelan, which has been estimated to be in the region of £20million.

Jewell quit on Monday after 6 years in charge which has saw Wigan go through the English divisions like Fat Frank eating chips (very, very quickly). Jewell claimed that the stress of top-level management was having an effect on his health, just like those chips eh, Frank? (Can I have more Sir?)
Jewell reccomended his number 2 ‘The Hutch’ to Whelan as his replacement and he will be introduced to the media this morning, knowing that several senior players are likely to be moving on as the transformation period begins for the team that managed to survive the drop by only 1 goal.
