Wigan manager Paul Cook said:
"People have written us off, the 12 points, we're still fighting.

"We're not going to get ahead of ourselves. We are not stupid, we have a real big mountain to climb.

"We are in administration; it's a 12-point deduction. I just hope the EFL hand punishments out for other clubs that have been breaking the rules.

"At the minute we're accepting it, if that's going to be the case. But we've still got plenty of fight in us."
