And so as we reach the pinnacle of the Wigan sporting civil war as Wigan’s three favourite football teams come head to head in the space of six days. These really are the games I cannot stand above any other and they are the games we, as Wigan Athletic fans dreamt of watching many years […]
Look I’ve already been told off for using this column to gloat once so I won’t. Let’s just say I’ve taken a lot of stick over my support of one of our players and heard a lot, lot worse said about him at the games over the past couple of years and it’s always nice […]
