I would just like to take this opportunity to wish Wigan Athletic all the best for this afternoon's Carling Cup final against the mighty Manchester United.

For a club the size of Wigan just promoted from the Championship to spend all season in the top half of the Premiership and to reach the final of a major cup is a fantastic achievement especially when you see how rubbish my team Sunderland have done.

My head says Man U will win today in a close game but my heart says Wigan for the Carling Cup and a place in Europe!!!! If Man U do win I just hope it is not through a dodgy refereeing decision and they actually deserve to win!

Anyway come on Wigan and good luck!!!!!

ABSOLUTELY !!

I`m listening to the match on Radio 5 Live and as a Liverpool Season ticket holder, fervently praying for a Wigan win ! !happy!

Wigan deserve it without question.........and I'd love to see Malcolm Glazers face when he hears that Wigan won.

Ditto! but wigan are getting a bit of a battering at the moment!

Come on lads!

No worries, the better team clearly won so congratulations Manchester United.

I just want to say what a player Wayne Rooney is at such a young age.

Saw Man U players celebrating after winning the Carling/Milk/League cup as if it was the World Cup. Seemed to remember a few years ago when they were winning everything, they didn't go into the FA Cup as they wanted to go into some Euro competition. Now after a few years of drought, they'd probably go ape if they won the Evening News 5-a-side.

It was actually a tournament in Brazil where they subsequently flopped!!!! It was a supposed media exercise for England to get brownie points for hosting the World Cup in 2006............which ultimately went to Germany.
