I agree with bicky & johndoe on this one. After the liverpool thing, plans & preparation should have been put in place to focus on the upcoming season, not to give fans the concern of martinez allegedly going to another club after turning one down previously. To be fair to whelan he has said he hopes spurs “leaves us alone.” i know its frustrating for fans but in the 30 odd yrars ive been supporting wigan we are simply a stepping stone club for both players & managers alike.
Yeah!…like you, I too agree with the biscuit and toe tag man. It’s true we supporters are hard done by and need to know the absolute detail of everything that goes on in the club. It is, after all, OUR club…….we have a right to know. What is going on with Moses…..is he or not? C’mon management let us know. Who are you signing and how do they fit into OUR way of playing? What are your financial plans for the next year/short term plan/long term plan….we need to know….NOW. Why are you not listening to US……we’ve played championship manager longer than you.
It’s simple really………………………..give me strength.[/quote]
Not the first time that you have made a reference to fans playing computer games or similar ! Personally I don’t play them but I wouldn’t think for one minute that anyone who does play them would think that they have the capabilities to run a football team ! You can be quite condescending when the mood takes you Micky ! B)
I was mad as fcuk the other morning when I was getting dressed because I couldn’t find the shirt I wanted to wear, does that make me a cross dresser !!
How come Bolton and Blackburn are the only Championship sides not included in the first round draw ?
Without cheating, who can name all the sponsors of the League cup since 81 when it became a sponsored trophy ? There are 7 including this years !
There was a mixed response to the possibility back in mid April !!

The big machine gathers momentum as it wreaks havoc through Europe ! :cheer:
You can say that again.
It’s funny the Germans aren’t telling the Greeks , Irish , Portuguese etc who they can pick in their teams. :evil:[/quote]
No mention of France or Holland !! :huh:
Not many countries lose a war and benefit from it !! ;)

Tonight I am feeling rather bullish about our chances !! B)Cant wait till they come up against a team who goes at them for 90 mins 2nd half tonight when the Dutch finally decided to start playing the sausage munchers didnt look that good.The more of the tournament I see the more I reckon if Roy goes for it we could be in for a good un.Spanish will still be the team to beat Ruskies could be dark horses[/quote]
As spotted by the TV pundits, when Germany did finally concede a goal they didn’t panic and saw the game out ! For a relatively young side they have a great future ahead of them and so far cant really be faulted but it is early days ! Watch this space !! B)
Did I say it was my work or indeed take credit for it ? No I didn’t ! How detective Jonny came across the blog does make me think of him in a different light I must admit ! I am now thinking smarmy clever get the type who goes that extra yard to prove someone wrong ! Not a good trait really DJ ! I used and indeed edited some of that blog because remembering it from many moons back I thought it explained a little better than the usual ” crap ” and ” Boring ” adjectives usually associated with Coldplay ! Like I said, if you enjoyed it then fine but the big extravagant stage show doesn’t mask the dreary Martin and his lyrics of fixing things and being sorry and down beaten etc etc etc !!Like I said before, why do Coldplay come under so much fire ? Even from other musicians ! They are even used as a word in the Urban Dictionary !!
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Coldplay&defid=5574694Other bands I would put in the same category are Snow patrol ( 1st 2 albums on indy labels were great )but major label put an end to that and keane ( Like Coldplay , rich kids with no charisma or edge )currently lying in the “where are they now files” ! ( From ” Spinal Tap ” Jonny !! ) ;)
Detective Jonny thought ‘Bloody ‘ell Phil, that’s a well written piece’; copied and pasted the first line, put it into Google and up came the article. All within ten seconds. Minimal effort.
Was actually looking to see if did indeed write music blogs (as there is no author’s name on the piece you’d could have blagged it!)
As it happens, I agree totally on the Coldplay opinion: dull, waiting room/coffee table music. They’re a modern day Dire Straits (but as least Dire Straits had Mark Knopfler’s guitar playing to its credit).[/quote]
It was indeed well written and so I nicked it or part nicked it because it mirrored my own thoughts and as I thought that back when I first read it I thought I would use some of it again ! :)

People have musical differences but you must ask yourself why Coldplay come in for a lot of criticism for being boring and Martin with his sanctimonious pious manner doesn’t escape the critics either ! With all due respect if your son had been at a U2 stadium gig or an Oasis stadium gig back in the day when they were getting all the hype I am pretty sure he would have been swept along with all the false enthusiasm of the crowd of that particular era. For me Oasis were actually better than ever just before their demise and the last stuff they wrote was far better than the commercial media fuelled stuff that got them to those lofty heights. U2 in my opinion were better in the beginning with their raw high octane jump around tracks and music only priorities but all that went wrong for me when they too fell foul of the self righteous trait especially Bono ! Colplay may indeed now put on a special effects extravaganza but that to me just stinks of diversions ! I remember Martin on a live recording back in 2003 just before they played yellow asking the crowd to stand up to listen to it and he would buy them an ice cream ! Now they had two supposedly epic albums out back then but still no stage presence or charisma whatsoever ! That has been replaced by thousands of pounds worth of diversion effects !! Personally, I don’t really listen to commercial music these days and I have opted to go back underground listening to neo psychedelia and similar genres. Music is whatever floats ones candles and so if you enjoyed your gig then good on you, I was just trying to explain in a way why a lot of people file Coldplay under ” Boring ” !
Here is an example of what I listen to. They are actually mates of mine form Leighton Buzzard ! You might even like them !
