'It happened overnight' - Wigan defender Kipre admits shock and feeling of betrayal over administration

Wigan defender Cedric Kipre says there is a feeling of betrayal at the Championship club after they were placed into administration this week.

The 2013 FA Cup winners, currently 14th in the second tier, are facing a 12-point deduction from the Football Association.

The Latics sit seven points clear of the drop zone with six games to play. If Wigan avoid relegation, the deduction will be applied to the final table at the end of the season but if they go down regardless, it will be applied next season instead.
