I guess Hull wants to get demoted from the Championship. Down 7-0 to Wigan at halftime.
The score has brought Wigan's goal differential to even for the season.
Odd story at Wigan.
Wigan are a relatively well run club with significant cash reserves and a owner who loves them, but he puts them up for sale. The new owners have passed the EFL's 'fit and proper' test but they immediately hand over ownership of their company to a couple of new people, one of whom doesn't actually seem to exist by any paper trail. The club are suddenly and without notice put into administration in July, only 4 weeks after the sale.
After the sale, the head of the Football League is caught on camera talking about the rumour that there's a sizeable bet (MILLIONS) on in the Phillipines that Wigan are relegated. Wigan's main team sponsor? KB88, a Filipino gambling company. In the EFL, putting a club into administration comes with a 12 point penalty and this takes them from relative safety in mid-table... to the relegation zone with three games remaining.
They're 7-0 up at half time against the team effectively one spot above them and this will take them out of the relegation zone again. Mental stuff.
Bastard, haha
