Barlow doesn't want Wigan job

Wigan caretaker manager Frank Barlow is not interested in taking the role on a permanent basis.

The veteran coach will take charge of the side against Tottenham on Sunday at White Hart Lane following the dismissal of Chris Hutchings.

Asked if he would throw his hat into the ring, Barlow, 61, said: “Definitely not. I do not like doing this part (media interviews).

“Chris asked me to come so I am fully aware of my position. I will just take what comes.

“I am not on my own at the moment. The backroom staff here are one of the main assets of the club. They are very much together.”
