Be honest with yourselves and tell me what we will ever win? We can forget the league, forget the FA cup and forget the Carling cup as we obviously don’t want to win it playing reserves. The attendances are poor, but worse than that the actual support is non existant. We don’t invest and really have no future? Is there any point to it anymore or should we accept defeat and just wrap up?
I am getting back to the ‘not having anything good to say’ stage

Try supporting Accrington Stanley then you’d really have something to moan about.

You never see them in the room at the same time, do you?
11 September 2009 at 4:29 pm #8546I can answer the initial question in one sentence, which admittedly, is a first for me, lol! :D
“Remember the Kenny Swain era?”
There you go.
11 September 2009 at 5:05 pm #8551The point for me is loyalty
I was born in Wigan, grew up in Wigan and may well die in Wigan and have supported Wigan Athletic for over 30 years
They are my team, and always will be and that’s the reason I turn up, no matter how much they piss me of
If the small matter of us not winning anything if enough reason to question why you bother then you aren’t much of a football fan
There are fans of other clubs up and down the country who go a lifetime without seeing their team win anything, but they still go because it is their team and they are loyal.
Apart from a handful of top teams, this is the existence of a football supporter: to put up with years, even decades of sh1t in the vain hope that for the odd year or two, your team might actuallty achieve something
If all you’re bothered about is results then go watch United with the rest of the sheep in Wigan
Hope that helps

I expect us to win some games every now and then.
If it’s trophies you’re after this is the wrong club for you. Maybe your confusing us with your other team? Is it a throwback to the glory days watching the rugby?

Youre not a Latics fan, but i will give you the benefit of the doubt. Youre right as far as winning the league, but would you risk your house on us not getting European qualification in the future, weve come pretty close on a couple of occassions and only been trying 4 years. Who should we forget the FA Cup, even in our non league days the FA Cup was a major plus and any way, if the likes of Wimbledon and Portsmouth can win it, anyone has a chance. Forget the Carling cup despite already getting to a final in four attempts? The support is non existant you mention, well we obviously go to different stadiums. Are you sure youre not going to Robin Park arena? We may as well wrap up being one of the most famous clubs in the world, screened around the planet every week, earning millions and even more than that, going to the pub at 1pm on a Saturday afternoon with the mates, having a few drinks and enjoying an afternoon of football.
Youre a rugby fan you little tinker arent you, thas bin rumbled. ;) -
