Birmingham 0-0 Latics Saturday 25th September 2010 It’s 0-0, you’re entering the closing stages of the game, the opposition have one of the best crossers of a ball in the division in their side and they’re just about to bring on a seven foot centre forward. Of course it makes for a nervy few minutes. […]

I’m fed up of whining about our fans, so thanks to Jimmy over at The Mudhutter for going full tilt in the right direction, saving me lots of words and allowing me to get straight into bragging about my free day in the posh seats. I don’t even have to promote anything in return. So […]
Pete from ManCityblog.com popped over, ahead of Sunday’s Latics v Man City game, for a virtual brew this week and took the chance to ask me some questions. In return I got the chance to try and get closure on some old wounds.

No match previews this week, I just can’t be doing with the clash of complexes that has become the build up to any Latics v Sunderland game. I’ll leave the reasoning behind that superiority/inferiority divide for when I finally get around to sitting that psychology ‘A’-Level and try and get on with what will hopefully […]

Do I need to remind you of my feelings towards Paul Scharner? Things will be so much easier if we can leave that at my never having rated him, he was my favourite left back, provided that he was left back in whichever suburb of Washington is reserved for c-list footballers. He might have played […]
