    Wigan centre back has just been released after numerous contract breaches by their current and former owners, apparently both us and Portsmouth are looking at him.

    Rated really highly by Wigan fans, I’d love us to sign him just to get up their noses again.

    I think he's an excellent player. Played for Portsmouth (one of their youth products) for a long time before joining Wigan, then won Wigan's player of the year & got in the team of the year when they were in league one. Be quite surprised if a championship club doesn't go in for him especially on a free. We really need a centre back with experience, he's a good age, good on the ball and would be an absolutely fantastic addition. I reckon he'll be up to move back down south to Portsmouth though I imagine since he spent well over a decade there. I'd be very excited if this were true though and we are in for him.

    He's got nice hair and pulls off that surfer boy look effortlessly - it's a yes from me :)

    Reading some Wigan fans on Twitter and they're fuming he didn't just hand in a transfer request so they could get some money back, which I would be saying in their position too I suppose, but all we know is he hasn't been paid and it might have been bad blood between him & their new owners. They'd have definitely got atleast 1/1.5 million so I can definitely see why they're miffed :)

    He’s not having a good night on Twitter.

    I would expect him to join Portsmouth given the history there.

    I don't think anyone, ever, has good nights on that platform mate. Took a little holiday from it. Occasionally I go to read something (usually barnsley related) but never reply to anything anymore, not worth the hassle...

    Agreed on social media. He’s been outed (allegedly) on doing the dirty on his wife. Coincidentally on the same day he exercises the right to cancel his contract. Lovely fans, the ‘Tics.

    Can't deny I'm not revelling in it. Just a smudge of course!

    Bit weird. If this isn't true they're trying to ruin a man's life for quitting his job because he wasn't getting paid.

    It's no wonder he's set his account to private. Getting abused for not hanging around when his place of work are in breach of contract.

    And with what's going down on Twitter, the fact that he probably now wants to get as far away from the north of England as possible :eek:

    I'd love it purely to wind Wigan fans up some more but I suspect he'll move back to the championship or if he does stay in L1 it will be back to Pompey.
