….and I think a few more people could do with taking one as well!
Seriously though, a break away down on the South Coast has done me the world of good. I’ve come back feeling rejeuvenated and really up for the season.
I am EXCITED about seeing our new signings in action, especially Boselli. We’ve signed a striker who will almost certainly play for Argentina,now his ex coach is the national coach. Also, we’ve signed a player who looked really good in the World Cup, Alcaraz, as well as a full back, Stam, who was wanted by Ajax. Add to that the signing of McArthur, and things are looking good. And then I start to remember that we’ve already got the likes of Victor Moses on board, and it all sounds good!
The only worry is that we will lose both Figueroa, AND N’Zogbia. I really hope we don’t. Especially N’Zogbia. Figueroa we can replace, but I can’t think of anybody who could replace N’Zogbia. I really hope they don’t leave a few days before the season.
So all in all, I’m looking quite positive about things!
A few points about replica shirts from my time down south. I saw somebody wearing a Yeovil Town shirt, made by Vandanel. For whatever reason, it was FAR better made than our shirt last season, and looked quite nice. Also saw a Swindon shirt, made by Adidas. Again, well made, good material. I saw a new United shirt or two as well. My god, it looks like one of those fakes from on holiday! Not nice at all. With hindsight, I don’t think our new kit is too bad. Pity we’ve lost the ‘stripes’ though. It IS quite individualistic, though. However, maybe a diagnal stripe would of looked better, rather than just down one side.
Looking forward to Real Zaragoza on Wed. And I can’t wait for the Blackpool match. By all accounts, they are in a bit of a mess, players wise, and I just hope we are clinical and cynical enough to send them home well and truly beaten.
Here’s to enjoying the season. :D

Why thank you, squire!
Mad thing is, every day on the south coast was blue skies, blazing sun, and 70 odd degrees. Bloody lovely! Was told that Weymouth hadn’t had any real rain since MAY!
What a contrast to up here. :(

How did you know those shirts were well made ? You would have had to get really close up to examine the quality, even feel it ! So I was just wondering what the person wearing the shirt thought when you moved in for the inspection ! 8-)

Why on earth you see fit to try and argue with me, when I was there and you were NOT, is beyond me.
Typical Wiganer.

How ironic, the most untypical wiganer (skemmer) calling a wiganer typical.

Someone else is also calling Wiganers, in this weeks Observer letter’s page. They are spot on.
Wigan IS a bit of a cliquey, inbred place. So is Skem, though differently.
Mighty_Aff, you don’t know me, and have never met me. If you did, you would never guess I was from Skem, as I don’t wear a tracksuit and talk like I come from Scottie Road. That is a SCOUSER. I am a Skemmer. There IS a difference.
Brenda Spencer is a Skemmer too, you know. (Straight up)

Especially as the person he is calling is not a Wiganer ;)
