Wigan’ trip to Bloomfield Road to be televised

Wigan Athletic can confirm that the Football League Championship fixture away to Blackpool at Bloomfield Road on Saturday 19 October has been moved to a 12.15pm kick off.

The match was originally scheduled for a 3.00pm kick off but has been put back to an earlier time to be televised live.

It will be the first time Latics have played at the home of the Tangerines since 2010, when goals from Hugo Rodallega, Charles N’Zogbia and Mohamed Diame helped the side to a 3-1 win over Ian Holloway’s team.
