Gary Caldwell wants his boys to continue on the winning ways when they travel to Valley Parade in a couple of days’ time.
If Wigan manages to secure another win there, it would be their third on the trot in a space of one week.
Speaking to the press earlier in the afternoon, Caldwell said, “When you are on a bit of a roll, it’s important you keep the momentum going. We have not lost a game home or away of late and now, it’s a challenge for us to try and stretch this run as long as we possibly can. So, the Bradford game is absolutely vital in that regard. We would be looking to finish the week on a high.”
“The last game proved to be a little closer than we would have liked it to be. We were well and truly ahead and then, we allowed them to come back. After that sort of start, we should have won more comfortably. However, at the end of the day, it’s the outcome and the points which hold the importance and we had another three points there.”
“Being as consistent as we have been especially in our away games recently, it’s a great sign for the side moving forward. Consistency is the key as I have been saying all along.”
Seven wins and six draws in the sixteen games that they have played in League One so far have earned the Latics a total of 27 points and they are trailed by 5 points to Walsall which is leading the points table.
It’s actually the below average start which is responsible for Wigan still not being in the top 4 in the table. But, they are catching up fast and nobody can count them out as far as the promotion is concerned.
