Just three days after securing their first ever FA Cup triumph with a
memorable win over Manchester City at Wembley, Wigan have been
relegated.
Roberto Martinez’s men lost 4-1 at Arsenal and tumbled out of the Premier League after an eight-year stay and will join QPR and Reading in the Championship.
The defeat means the Latics also pick the unwanted record of becoming the first side ever to win the FA Cup and be relegated in the same season.
Speaking after the game Roberto Martinez said he “never expected” to get relegated as the FA Cup winners tumble into the void.
