TOP TEN SCHARNER MOMENTS - YOU DECIDE!

Posted on: Fri 27 Mar 2009

WE WANT YOU TO DECIDE - AGAIN!

TOP TEN PAUL SCHARNER MOMENTS:

He doesn't get much publicity, so we thought we'd redress the balance.

To celebrate Wigan's favourite Austrians becoming the first player in club history reaching 100 Premier League appearances, it's over to the Latics fans to decide what have been the moments that have stuck out when it comes to the multi-hair coloured Alpine wonder.

As part of the celebrations of 30 Years of League Football, LATICS LEAGUE LEGENDS is the column that lets YOU decide.

The results will be printed in the Arsenal programme on April 9th.
