Wigan determined to keep Jewell

Wigan chief executive Brenda Spencer has stressed the club is determined to hang on to manager Paul Jewell after he masterminded their escape from relegation on the final day of the season.

Many of the Latics players praised Jewell for his approach both before and during their crucial 2-1 victory at Sheffield United – repeating a feat of seven years ago when he kept Bradford on the last day of the season.
