Continuity Error
I wasn’t overly distraught over Warren Joyce being relieved of his duties. I felt very sorry for him, both because it wasn’t working out and I don’t like to see anybody lose their job.

Hold Back the Night
This time last week, I was trying hard not to think about the Bristol City game and distracting myself by building up to watching John Bramwell at the Old Courts. There’ll be a review of that gig somewhere at some point but suffice, for now, to say it was a decent distraction, the first entertainment […]
Hell is round the corner
We’re back with another Emporium of S***e and L is the letter under our alphabetically based scrutiny today. Seems strange how we’re on the brink of relegation and so few of the current crop are being chucked in, there’s time yet I suppose.
After the (Michael) Love has gone
The Pie At Night team resume in suitably cheerful fashion with the Latics marooned in the relegation swamp. We talk about our Oscar like gaffes without a mention of Bramble, Caldwell or Burn before briefly laughing at Bolton players spitting their dummies at their own fans. But we can’t spend the whole podcast laughing at […]
We’re Getting Back Together
*Sorry, We’re getting the band back together… Your club is in deep doo-doo, the crowds are revolting and the team looks like it’s losing interest so what else was there for us to do in latest episode of the Pie at Night Podcast to ponder the big question on everyone’s mind of the moment. If […]
Joyce Division
I started writing this article over the weekend, fuelled by another inept performance at home against a side who should have been dispatched if they had been attacked with any sort of conviction. The events of yesterday have changed the tone slightly of this piece now, but still leaves many thoughts running through my head. […]
All aboard the believe Barrow
With thanks to @weahscousin for the title, Alan considers yesterday’s events and comes out with no fear. Not like a t-shirt, like he’s not scared of what’s to come…
The Chimp Paradox
The Chimp Paradox is a 2012 book by acclaimed sports psychiatrist, Professor Steve Peters. Peters theorises that we all have an inner Chimp that can be a bit of a pain in the arse – it’s the bit of the brain which runs on emotions and gut instinct, makes snap judgements and thinks in black and white. The […]
A Perfect Hat-Trick #6 – Changing Man
The best thing about being a Latics fan is how the club have developed a knack of lulling you into a false sense of finality before raising hopes, expectations and a few eyebrows with a revival that would compete with anything that happened to Lazarus. The thing is that, when you’ve been through as many […]
12th Man: Nothing less will do
This week’s article has a distinctly more positive feel to it than I originally had planned. The reason for that? Well after seemingly being dead and buried on Saturday evening, Latics in typical Latics fashion got a crucial win at Birmingham to throw themselves right back in to the survival mix. Let’s not kid ourselves, […]
