The Council made a decent effort with the publicity around the cup final but seem to be taking a while updating the signs coming into the borough, anybody know why ?
16 July 2013 at 3:40 am #117870It was a little more exciting before the cup final – then there was the anticlimax of relegation.
What do you think the new signs should say?
16 July 2013 at 6:06 am #117873FA Cup winners 2013
16 July 2013 at 12:49 pm #117875Oh are the signs not up yet?
See if anyone from Cockney Latic has any contacts at the club to kick things on. Think that Garswood fella may be itk

Fills you with confidence, doesn’t it?
The club have no say about road signage, and at a time when they are looking to deal with the admin of bringing new players in, balancing the books across the board with a lower income, being prepared for a new season which will include European trips, I think whether there are a few road signs around is low on the club’s priority list to press, even if they did have any influence.
Yes, we know the Council has not had a good word to say for years and suddenly became Latics supporters overnight, but I’d chill about it.
People round the world know we won the FA Cup. If the Council can’t see they could still get a bit of kudos from it then they need a talking to. Some of heh Councillors will be actual Latics supporters – write to them and get them on board.
16 July 2013 at 1:26 pm #117878the one on diconsen lane coming into Aspull has Home of the Fa cup winners on it
16 July 2013 at 3:59 pm #117886Until you put that 35, I had another thought about this & was wondering if they were waiting to see if we won the Community Shield first .

But perhaps they’re waiting to see how the Warriors do.

Suspect that’s the correct answer, and quite right too.
25 July 2013 at 12:36 am #118239I can confirm that there is a sign made that reads ‘Home of Wigan Athletic FA Cup Winners 2013’.
I have been reliably informed that similar signs have been installed on entrances to the borough. Perhaps the eagle eyed can confirm this? There isn’t one yet at Landgate island.
25 July 2013 at 2:00 pm #118261There is one on Liverpool Road as you head in to Ashton.
25 July 2013 at 2:03 pm #118262There is one on Liverpool Road as you head in to Ashton.Is there? When did that go up?
Still not one at Landgate, arguably the busiest motorway junction into Wigan.
Might have to get my WAFC -Ashton Goons On A European Tour flag up on that rounadbout monstrosity

Can only have been in the last few days, I drive through there often and only noticed it yesterday. Its just after you leave 24 and turn left.
25 July 2013 at 2:30 pm #118267I turn off right at 24 and get back on M6, to come off at 25.
I’d go the other way tonight through Ash Vegas but Wigan Roads a feckin nightmare with Bryn Rd closed over railway bridge
26 July 2013 at 1:13 pm #118300I can confirm the one at Ashton.
Completely new sign/colours with FA Cup Winners 2013 underneath itNo wonder they’re taking so long
