Melchiot Steals the show at JJ's Player of the Year Awards

Wigan Skipper Mario Melchiot stole the show collecting two awards at the annual JJ's Player of the Year Awards on Monday night, the Man of the Match Award and the overall Player of the Season. JJ's members also voted Antoine Sibierski's goal against Chelsea in the FA Cup as the Goal of the Season.

The Junior awards night took place in the South Stand Tetley's Lounge at the JJB Stadium with over 300 JJ's members in attendance.
