Well its been a busy Wednesday. Haven't 25 days of quite everything seems to be going off at once, and today gave us not one but two massive surprises. First about lunch time (UK time) the club released an official statement, saying that Nicky Maynard was not on his way to Wigan.

Hang on a minute, Britol City said we had been given permission to talk to him. So what is going on there then? Well according to the head honcho (Johnny Jackson), the club inquired about Maynard, yet have not lodged any bid and have not looked to talk to the player.

What is going on?

Well signing Jean Beausejour was what the club were doing. The 27 year old has finally joined the club for a undisclosed fee, on a two and half year deal. It has to be a step forward, this lad has talent and will help to boost our Premier League survival chances.

Yet what about more players coming in?

A center back is needed to help strength it up due to Alcaraz now likely to be out for another two to three weeks. While signing another striker should be another top priority, and Nicky Maynard would be a very good option to bring in, and surely the club will follow up on their inquiry.

But welcome to Wigan Mr Beausejour!
