Wigan boss Paul Jewell has revealed he would settle right now for the season West Brom endured - and ultimately enjoyed - last term.Albion looked certain for the drop virtually all the way through the 2004-05 campaign, not least because they propped up the Premiership table at Christmas. But come the final day, the Baggies had managed to put themselves in a position where they could survive, ultimately pulling off their great escape with a win over Portsmouth, and with other results going their way.Jewell would love to avoid the next eight months agonising over a relegation scrap, and he said: "We´d all settle for the season West Brom had last season. I´d take it now, go away, lie on a beach somewhere and let everyone else sweat over it."
