It’s The End Of The World As We Know It
TALKSPORT SPEAK SENSE SHOCKER I had a tip off last night that Collymore was talking sense on Talksport, this to me was kind of like a Halley’s comet sighting, so I tuned in and indeed he was talking sense.

Share your Soul
Sick of the same old routine on a Friday? Chippy tea followed by double Corrie then whatever rubbish the kids want to watch? Well, if you’re of a Soulful disposition why not do something different for a change and get yourself down to the Whelley Ex Servicemans Club, Vauxhall Road, Scholes ( behind the Indian […]
We Will Survive
On Thursday afternoon Wigan Athletic Football Club, once again, opened its doors to the Independent fan websites for some frank and open discussions on all things Latics. Whether this is done elsewhere in the Premier League or outside it, for that matter, we’re not sure, but, either way, what it does show is how committed […]
A Fishy Deal
So, it’s February again, no doubt we all woke up this morning to choruses of “pinch, punch”, “white rabbits” and “bloody hell, Liverpool paid how much for Andy Carroll and we grabbed some bloody nobody from Scotland, bloody Martinez he knows nowt he does, my granny could do a better job and she speaks Spanish!”. […]
Your Precious
Go on, I’ll admit that I’ve been in a bit of a Latics based slump recently, then I’ll pause, let you gather your thoughts, build your pre-conceptions and then hit you with the truth. I’ve not been down because of events in the pitch, uninspiring performances or because our manager doesn’t scream himself hoarse every […]
Hair Today
You’ve probably picked up that I’m in a lazy mood at the moment, something like normal service will be resumed shortly, but to keep me in your minds I thought that I’d share this what I wrote for the Mudhutter Winter Special available free from here. If you haven’t got it then you’re missing out […]
Not so great expectations
It’s been a long three weeks since I last wrote, I promise that I’ve not been hanging on until I can legitimately use a “preparing for the festive period” excuse for my posting pattern, but sometimes things don’t change that much no matter how long you wait. Three weeks ago it was 14 points from […]
Ifs, Buts, Maybes – Manchester United Thoughts
Manchester United 2-0 Latics Saturday 20th November 2010 “If you’re going to be a Latics fan, son, then you’re going to have to get used to living on scraps and ifs buts and maybes. Either that or you’re going to find life very upsetting”. That’s just about the best advice I never got as a […]
Fourteen games, fourteen points: More to come?
Yesterday could well have been the day. The day Latics fans have been dreaming of for so many years, the day we finally put one over on the ‘mighty’ Manchester United, the day people actually sit up and take notice of Little Wigan as a real threat in the top flight of English football. It […]
Not the romantic type – United Preview
There’s not much I’d take from Blackpool fans and I’m particularly loving how they’re getting all that “plucky little…” stuff they used to rip shreds off us for, but there is something that I am envious of and that’s the gidiness of those first flushes of top flight football. Walking into Old Trafford, 70,000 people, […]
