Martinez refuses to accept Wigan are down

Wigan Athletic boss Roberto Martinez refuses to accept they're going down after defeat to Swansea City.

Latics threw away a 2-1 lead with some shocking defending and are still three points adrift of safety.

But defiant Martinez said: "We will never throw in the towel.

"We will fight for every point, regardless of what the other teams around us do in their remaining games. We know how difficult it will be to play Arsenal three days after the FA Cup final but we won there at the end of last season - we have to go and do that again."
