Martinez: Latics will stop the rot

WIGAN’S great escape last season has given manager Roberto Martinez confidence that they can pull themselves out of their current horrendous run of form.

Yesterday’s 2-0 defeat by Fulham made it eight losses in-a-row for the Latics, seven of them in the Barclays Premier League.

They now sit bottom of the table having failed to pick up a single point in either September or October.
