Well this idea has come a little late for me unfortunately. I have been living in Kent, but move back up north (and a little further) today! It’s a great idea in theory, the only problem I have found with living darn souf is that obviously you have to pick and choose the games you can make, and very often I have found it is a very last minute decision whether you can make a match or not.
Good luck with the organisation though if you do plan on doing something about this as there is an ever growing number of displaced Latics fans. God knows how expensive both petrol and trains are too!
