HUMILIATED Wigan stars will refund fans who bought tickets for their 9-1 thrashing at Tottenham.
The Latics crashed to the second worst defeat in Premier League history as they conceded eight second-half goals.
Defender Mario Melchiot admits the result was embarrassing and the team will pay away fans the cost of tickets.
Melchiot said: "We feel that as a group of players we badly let down our supporters.
"This is a gesture we have to make and pay them back for their tremendous loyalty.
"There is not a lot else to say, just that as a group of professionals we were embarrassed by the way we performed.
"We feel it was below our standards and this is something we feel we owe to the fans.
"Now we have to draw a line under the game, focus completely on training this week and bounce back on Saturday.
"We are professionals, we will take it on the chin and move on but it's important that we do not take our supporters for granted."
