I'd rather keep Roberts and Phelps where they are, bring Ainscough in on the wing and try Pat in the centres.
Phelps is NOT a centre.

Pat to Centre now where i have heard that one before ????

Ahhhhh no Millward Pat did not do well there last time no reason to believe he will do better there next season. If Carmont go's then i would try Roberts there for a couples of games see how he does. If not i would bing in one of the Youngsters or even try Ainscough there.

Almost a career ending position for Paddy that.

He has been offered the 2 year deal by Celtic he's been after from Wigan, I get a feeling he will be a Crusader next season.

Carmont and Matt Utai, two fantastic signings for Celtic IMO.

Seeing our new coach hasn't even step foot in the country yet, never mind met the players, I'd say whoever told you that is talking bollox.

Not offering Carmont his 2nd year says to me that IL has got a big name centre lined up for 2011...

Well it says to me he wants one of the younger players in the first team by then which is one of the things I.L. has always said he wants more Wiganers in the team.

And we do have some good young centres coming through who should be ready by 2011.

Me neither. It says it a position where we can make a saving. Big name signings are no more at Wigan.

No No No No No No!!!!!!

Phelps is clearly the best fullback at the club, he shouldnt come into what happens with the centre spot.

That should be between Pryce, Goulding & Bailey.

Ainscough & Roberts should fight for the wing spot.
