There’s not been that much chatter ahead of the trip to St. Andrews. It’s partly due to Latics’ form, partly that it’s not the most inspiring fixture, partly because of events elsewhere, but I reckon, mostly because no-one really dare think how we might feel come tea time tonight. Any way, here are the five […]
I reckon there must be something wrong with the rotation of the earth, I mean, there’s no way that it’s a week since the last time I was here thinking that the weekend was just around the corner and maybe I should start to think about a match preview. Maybe that’s what playing at Sunday […]
It’s nearly two weeks since the last time I forced my impeccable music taste on you, so it’s time for you to ignore me yet again and carry on listening to your Rage Against the Machine greatest hits (what that’s passé already, damn).

I suppose the inspiration for this list is blindingly obvious. There were more boos again on Sunday and I think it’s getting to the stage where people don’t even know what they’re booing at, is it Martinez, is it the players, is it because the bloke next door is doing it or just because they […]

It’s not often that you get […]
Thanks to Dan le Sac VS Scroobius Pip for the inspiration
Go on, admit it, the nerves are a little bit jangled and the trousers are a little bit brown going into this one. What if it happens again? Well I might cry if it does, but 500-1 at the bookies and the dearth of wins and goals from both sides in recent weeks suggests not. […]
We’re Little Wigan, we’re having a laugh…
I’m not ashamed to say it, I enjoyed this game, I might be on my own in admitting it, but I actually came away from the ground with a smile on my face and a warm feeling in my stomach. A small part of that will be due to the fact that that finally, after […]
Whatever happens at the DW Stadium this week, I urge you to lighten up, try to forget your troubles — no matter how hard that might be — and get behind the lads, even if we’re losing 2-0. After all, things could be far worse – we could be facing point deductions, liquidation or even […]
