Its bitterness, so you’re never going to change his twisted thoughts. Proving him wrong will only increase his bitterness and hatred towards Latics even more.
If someone genuinely can’t realise football is the number 1 sport in this town they need help. Excluding away fans, we have bigger average crowds. You see 10 times as many football shirts around town. There is more amateur football played than rugby. Compare how crowded the local pubs & bars will be in a month during the World Cup compared to their amatuer tournament. Need i go on?
When I was having our debate, I boiled it down to him hating Latics so much because as he called it “Most of WAFC fans are knucledragging, hooligan pondlife”
By the time it finished (wich was about 5 essays long) he had agreed that it was a small unheard of minority that is present in both sports.
He never carried on after that.
Cos I’m working at the mo’ I am not going to get embroiled yet, but tonight is a different story….
FA Cup Winners 2013, sounds good that
I really can’t take any of that seriously. If somebody wants to mouth off on the internet displaying complete ignorance then I say let them and just laugh at them. :roll:
Why bother trying to engage in any sort of debate, it’s just not going to happen.
vat69 you seem to have blocked me on facebook has i cant see any of your replies! :?
And if i was mike id be more bothered my weight/health than wigan athletic!
he sounds like a right cap end
I’ve put it in here, the football section, because it is to do with Latics, and the fact that certain people have such a hatred for us.JayT knows all about this, as along with myself, we have recently been having some very highly-charged ‘debate’ with one of the main ‘faces’ from within the rugby lot. Also, Adam Conroy, who supports BOTH football and the rugby, has attempted to compromise with him, defending Latics side of things, but to no avail.
It started on Facebook. I have a bloke linked, who I have known for years. He’s from Old Skem, originally, and he and his family have always followed Wigan rugby. Ok, there’s no problem with that, is there? However, when this guy starts professing how much he hates us on Facebook, and then starts bickering with me and posting sheer hateful comments (of Latics), I took exception. I felt I was being ganged up on by the rugby lot, so I showed it to JayT as well. Between us, we put a well contructed string of replies to his vitriolic comments, but typically, he wouldn’t have it.
And again, after that Chelsea game, he was in full flow again, spitting his hatred for us. Again, for what it is worth, I have replied, defending Latics. Now, this guy has known me since I was a baby. He knew me as a football-daft kid, who always had a ball at my feet. I was football-kit mad, having all kinds of tops, largely because there was a cheap sports shop in Old Skem where you could get them from. I had all sorts. But I digress. You know what this fella has come out and said?“I remember you as a boy, in your Man Utd shirt. Turncoat. Who will you support next?” I mean, for Pete’s sake, he’s talking about a TEN year old kid, here. Plus, he knows fine and well that I’ve followed Latics for years, with my dad, through the leagues.
And this is coming from a 42 year old bloke. How incredibly sad.
The bloke is called MIKE HEYES. I would bet a pound to a penny that this fella is one of the MAIN aggressors towards Latics on their websites.
Feel free to have a look at him. I think his profile picture says it all.

PS: I believe JayT was with Adam Conroy a few weeks ago, and Adam had Mike Heyes on the phone, and yet when JayT wanted to speak to him, he claimed to Conroy that he didn’t know who he was. :roll: Despite having a slanging match with him on facebook, days previously.
(MODS: Not sure if it’s right posting this, but this fella is so against latics, I think people should know about it. He’s also a very good friend of a certain M.L. Honestly.)
Please explain why you have bothered to post this and why you are getting on your period about it. Bit of banter. Tis nothing
If he’s like most of the rugby lads and lasses I know, they are so deluded in their own little ‘best sport in the World’ dream that there is no talking to them.
None of them can give a straight or factual answer why they hate Latics either. It is ‘hooligan’ this and ‘boring’ that, no fans this and rubgy town that.
One day, probably when we are relegated and haven’t got the limelight anymore, they will realise that it is just jealousy. At least Latics’ fans have just cause to be miffed at the the Cherry and Sh*tes

They seem to be taking it out on sky at the moment

You don’t know the half of it, mate. It’s been going on for about 3 or 4 weeks. JayT has already had a big debate with him about it, and I think he’ll be having another one. ;)
Banter? No, it isn’t. I never actually realised that they hate us as much as they do. Seriously. All that anti-Latics stuff on websites, and all that? I would bet that this fella is behind a lot of it. Make no mistake, if we ever go to the wall, this guy will be holding the biggest street party since the end of WW2……with his friend Maurice as VIP guest.
He’s not actually saying things for banter……he means it.[/quote]
But I mean what I say about them..That I hate them and theyre more or less all fat and sweaty
I don’t really care about them or their sport.
In my mind, you have to have some feelings for them to HATE them (fine line between… and all that), so I would like to say I don’t care what they say or do because I don’t have any feelings for them at all.
