In need of a bounce

Not been a great week has it? Wigan Athletic the only side without a new manager bounce. Following the disappointing defeat to them men, we followed it up with the dullest 90 minutes of football I’ve ever witnessed in the East London sunshine. We marginally improved on another long trip to face Gary Caldwell’s Exeter […]

Back to it

A lot has changed since that Cambridge match back at the start of the month, a new manager through the door and on the face of it a renewed sense of optimism. The international break will have done the squad a world of good, especially as the number travelling away was limited compared to earlier […]

Puffers to Pemps

On the fifth anniversary of the demolition of one iconic Wigan landmark, we take in some 2009 memories of the place from Tony Topping…  This summer a legend passed away, loved by some and hated by many. If your thinking Michael Jackson think again dear friend, the legend was Barbara Calderbank. My association with Barbara, […]

Blackpool calling

It’s New Year and that can only mean one thing, not a return to work not a set of un-assailable New Year resolutions but for me and over a thousand other people THE soul music event of the year. For the uninitiated let me set some context to this claim. Now in to a fourteenth […]

A pathetic shopping spree

If you move in certain Twitter circles then you’ll have come across The Pathetic Casuals.  Once they were young lads and lasses, touring the country in following the team they love, dressed up the nines and making sure they were seen and heard. Now, as age, parenthood, mortgages and world weariness catches up with them, […]

Over the hill

A trip to the best team in the league beckons for Wigan Athletic on Saturday afternoon. But we’ve already travelled to Sunderland I hear you say, is it Plymouth then? Nope. Well Wycombe then? No it’s our friends over the hill in Horwich. Best team in the league Bolton Wanderers, who currently sit in eighth […]

What more could he have done ?

The writing was on the wall following that FA Cup victory. How much further could an ambitious young manager go at Wigan? Four years working on a shoestring budget, developing players keen to leave at the ends of their contracts. It was an uphill task for Roberto Martinez. One thing is for sure – if […]

The team no-one likes doesn’t like us

Poor Millwall, you’d almost feel sorry for them if they weren’t Millwall. Despite their habitual strains of “no-one likes us”, they’re none too keen on ourselves either. It’s not that they don’t ever beat us, they do. It’s more that we always beat them when it matters: FA Cup semi final, Autowindscreens final, Play off […]

Latics snooze after bedtime Reading

Reading’s early season form may have lulled you into a false sense of expectancy but Latics have hardly been sparkling over recent weeks and were looking for a result here to get their season back on track.  In realistic terms this was another game against a team who will be one of our rivals at […]
