THANK YOU Thank you big time!
As for the game …. I just need to check my weekend rota and then I’ll make a commitment. BTW ….. I’m just as able to express my frustrations as my jubilations!!
Thanks!
9 999. It was going to be 10 000 but I’m not going.
It’s ok Mr Edwards – no emergency.
BTW – Horc, can I do a plug please? At a home game in the near future I am doing a sponsored silence. From entry to the ground to leaving the ground. It’s in aid of CALM:
The Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM) is leading a movement against male suicide, the single biggest killer of men under 45 in the UK.
I am happy to collect money pre- match!!!!
I will have adjudicators around me, if I make an inappropriate or untoward noise – I’ll add to the pot. The rules, regulations and conditions are yet to be drawn up, so if you have any suggestions ….. let me know.
Added to that if anyone wants to sponsor me …. I’ll let you know where I am but I’ll be unable to say thank you!!
Horc, if this inappropriate …. either delete it, or let me know and I’ll edit it out.
Always gonna get conflicts on forums vat lad and many will agree with what you post and many won’t. It’s the nature of the beast. Everybody on here who post are contributing and keeping CL alive. I’ve been on here since the beginning and it’s become part of me. I have seen many come and disappear from Penelope Pitstop to Less Bagg. All great posters in the past. I miss arky,s tales from the riverbank and his fishy puns griff and his outlook on all things Latics. True it didn’t used to be like it is now but it’s still the only Wigan Athletic forum worth being on. If we do have pricks on here then they are certainly not isolated. Every one of us a some time will be a prick vatty me quite often I guess. This is a great forum because of you and super stu and mutty. And the more reasoned tilders, garswood and egg opposing the more radical views. Everybody is contributing in some way horc working his socks off with the gate predictions donny and his Victor Meldrew rants about pricing not to .mention Jayt and the admin lot. You don’t want to leave vat lad stay on here and let battle commence.Very good perspective. Totally agree. I love the craic and banter. The fun and information. The different perspectives, (or should that be perspectii). It is a shame that occasionally it gets personal, but at that point I find another subject to contribute my pearls of wisdom to. One of the many people you failed to mention was the new lad, Edwards, who posts delightful quick whit and repartee, often managing to raise a laugh. Added to that he rarely fails to have a poke at some lad called GG,or GoalsGalore, frequently suggesting that the said GG is trying his best to make Gavin’s Mum into a Latic legend. I’ve failed with most things, but he’ll succeed here.
PS. VAR to stay. VAR to Championship. The ref was worse than most.
Blinkin’ eh. How did I miss Leeds? Made all the worse by not responding to the reminder. What’s more my prediction was only 5 out.
Barnsley – 11, 111
To sum up8 – 8 = total number of Bolton season ticket sales
80 + 8 = average weight of 8888
0 + 8 = number of Latics signings so far
£0 + £8million = approximate Latics spending so far
0 + 8 = number of Latics seasons in the premier league
8 + 0 = Chinese lucky number, also wealth and prosperity
8 & 8 = Latics top scorers last season
8 = number of pie and pastry products I’ve eaten since Mr Crusty appeared
I’m in with a chance then. And tomorrow is 08 08

8888? Is that a row of 4 rugby fans?[/quote]

This is a great forum; there is some good quick wit and repartee. In actual fact it is in honour of our new owners and shirt sponsors. I’ll be hacked orf if that extra guy who said he wasn’t going now changes his mind.[/quote]
I would have joked about “fat ladies” but intelligent people might have been offended![/quote]
Hahaha … that’s why I’m not offended!
Anyway, back to the point of 8888; did no one see the back of Crusty, his number – ‘8’, ‘Crusty 8 Pie’ – clever eh. Crusty is my mascot but I hoped that more than 8 would turn up. Poetic licence.

PS. Do you know where I could get hold of a copy of the Sunderland v Coventry City programme from 9th August 1969.
Knowing Coventry’s history for delaying things, you’ll probably be able to pick one up in about 2 weeks![/quote]
Cheers Mutty, but I need it for Friday.[/quote]
HORC, you need it for Friday? The whole thing or certain pages. I’ve got a mate at work who has been a season ticket holder for about 40 years. He may have one, but may not want to give it away for ever. If it is certain pages I may be able to scan those pages to you.[/quote]
Cheers GG. Its my mates 50th on Friday and he is obviously a Sunderland fan, so I was looking to get hold of the programme from the day he was born.
I wouldn’t expect it for free, so if your mate has it, or can get hold of one I am willing to buy it. If you don’t mind asking him, it would be much appreciated.P.S. Don’t forget, there’s a bonus week on the guess the gate comp.[/quote]
HORC … really sorry to raise your hopes and then let you down. I saw Tony at work this morning, but he couldn’t find that game. Sorry.

If he aint scored after 36 seconds against Preston on Saturday then send him back!Seriously, a very exciting signing, how much have we spent in the last week?
Do we need moore??
I’ve spent £4.30 in the last week.
I’m glad CrustyMcCrustyFace isn’t sponsored by a betting company
We do have a vegetarian version gg, the cheese pie, although it’s not vegan if thats what you mean.For the record I asked for a pea supper pie (my favourite) and got a cheese pie that was still very good, but the poor three staff were totally over run while serving. C’mon Cookie, sort it out!
After yesterdays performance Cookie OUT and sack the next manager before he arrives. They’re all rubbish.
