Has any team been relegated from the EPL and due to their geographical location looked to join either Wales or Scottish leagues?

For whatever reason I thought I read that Wigan looked at joining the Scotland PL a while back.

No, haven't heard of that one.

So Relegated are West Brom, Middlesbro & Newcastle.

Promoted are Wolves & Birmingham.

Tonight sees the 60 million pound clash between Burnley & Sheffield United at Wembley to claim the final promotion place into the EPL.

Here it is. I might have read it wrong.

The club was formed in 1932 following the demise of Wigan Borough the previous year. With Wigan County, Wigan United and Wigan Town also failing to establish themselves, this was fifth time lucky as far as Wigan Athletic were concerned.

Wigan hold the record for the biggest cup win by a non-league club over a league club. In the 1934/35 season, they defeated Carlisle United 6-1 in the FA Cup fifth round. This was achieved when playing in the Cheshire County League and it was not until 1978, and after appearances in the Lancashire Combination and Northern Premier League, that Wigan were elected to the Football League.

This came after numerous failed election attempts and a controversial application to join the Scottish League Second Division. They finished runners-up to Boston United in the Northern Premier League, but the latter's ground and facilities were deemed unsuitable for the Football League, and the Latics were put forward for election.

Wigan took their first step towards the Premier League in 1997 when they won the Third Division under John Deehan. Paul Jewell then earned promotion to the First Division with a points tally of 100 in 2002/03, just his second season at the club.

Can I say, quietly, that I'm stoked over this result. Not because I've got any affinity for Burnley, but because..

THE PIGS LOST!!!!!!

(I'm a Sheffield Wednesday man, just in case that didn't make any sense. Was dreading United getting into the premiership before the Owls, but now we'll have another season of Sheffield "Steel City" derbies to look forward to -- did the double over them this season, now to actually win promotion before they do...)
