Wigan chairman Dave Whelan: Season should be extended
WIGAN chairman Dave Whelan believes the Premier League season may have to be extended following recent postponements.
Wigan were forced to call off their game against Aston Villa on Saturday and Whelan said: “What I think will happen is the league will extend the season for an extra week or so. Games are piling up.
“Some of these teams are also still in the Carling Cup, the FA Cup and Europe and it’s going to be a nightmare for them if they don’t look to extend the season.”
