Wigan's medal mess up
WIGAN’S jubilant players were so preoccupied with their Wembley success they forgot to collect their medals.
The Spaniard and the rest of his players got so carried away they did not pick up their gongs.
Shaun Maloney, James McArthur, Antolin Alcaraz and Emmerson Boyce were presented with their medals after being first up the stairs following their 1-0 win against Manchester City.
But when boss Roberto Martinez joined them, organisers took that as the cue to hand over the trophy and, amid the celebrations, the Spaniard and the rest of his players got so carried away they did not pick up their gongs.
They were eventually handed out at training yesterday.
