I agree with you vinceHill about Latics being likeable up and down the country,
when my wife and i have travelled around the country,
i’ve always tried to go to the local non-league club match.
When i’m asked where i come from, and reply Wigan and a Latics Fan,
i’m amazed how much they know about our club, at some clubs the management have taken me into their boardrooms and showed me old match programmes and pendants, when they played us when we was a non-league club.
